I agree with the above. That clasp is awesome! A beautiful family heirloom regardless ❤️

I love what you did with these pearls! And they look fantastic on you!

Eek! I can't wait until you get them all and show us! Great choices! I didn't seem to have any issues on my phone - very weird but most welcome! Usually that's where I have the most problems because the building I work in has terrible reception.

I'm so glad someone here got it so I can see what it looks like on you in real life! Just a phenomenal piece.

An update - these pearls are sooo fragile and soo tiny! I've had a few just disintegrate so removing them and redoing them as a project is just not going to work, but they do work beautifully as a layering piece. They are around 1.5-2mm in size. I can't even imagine how they drilled holes in these!

I caught the last two pieces while it was live, but I got to watch the rest of it afterward. So fun! I ended up claiming a tahitian strand. I had all but sworn off them since I thought I had all the varieties I wanted but guess not! The light colored ones were just to die for. Can't wait for the...

I do want to add some more pearls in the mix to give it a little length and some more..pizzazz I think! I'm just a little undecided on what exactly I'd like to add. I do have a bead board and some thread for when this comes in, so that should help me sort it all! And good point on the hole...

Just the right amount of circles on that strand, IMO! I would love to see all of Aloha Pearls's inventory in person! My one regret from my trip to Hawaii (only been once) was that we went right after the state opened up for travelers from mainland US and none of the shops I wanted to go to were...

I will definitely use some sort of pendant or enhancer at the bottom! Maybe a souffle/fireball pearl or larger keshi, not sure yet. And thanks for the head's up, jeg. I've not worked with any keshi like this before so I wouldn't have thought of that.

Love a good ombre strand, jeg! Here's my pearls for today. Baroque silver-blue tahitian strand from Pearl Paradise and silver-blue tahitian keshi earrings from Aloha Pearls on Etsy.

Love calico cat! That is the perfect name for sure. Makes me think of my calico cat I had when I was a kid. She was the sweetest!

I was perusing Etsy (dangerous business) and came across what looks to be a really nice quality south sea keshi necklace from a US-based seller. She only had one prior sale but the price was fantastic IMO so I ordered it. I like ordering from new sellers personally. Their prices are usually...

All of it is just exquisite, jeg! I've been looking at Takahashi's Instagram for a while.. when you purchase from them do you just direct message them or do they have a website?

Here's what I'm wearing today. A new freshadama metallic strand from Pearl Paradise (that I have been waiting 7 whole years to find) and a white south sea ring also from Pearl Paradise.

@SurfnSci beautiful necklace! I have been following cmw for a while and they really do have some fantastic pearls. @jeg your pearls, as always, are inspirational! That ring especially catches my eye. Here is what I'm wearing today. All from Pearl Paradise. Baby tahitian pendant, drop threader...

That is just stunning, @MotherOfPearlTrumpet! I'm a few days late, but here's a picture of my mabe.

I adore mabe pearls and vintage/antique jewelry so these are a great find in my opinion! I do have one Sea of Cortez mabe that was made into a pendant, but I don't have a picture since I'm at work. If I think about it later I'll try to post a picture of it!

Pareltje, just stunning! That strand looks like it's made of pieces of candy and the earrings are magical of course. jeg, everything you own is drool-worthy.

Not sure about it's origin, but it's a charming piece!

Those are incredible finds! I don't think I've ever seen any good quality pearls in an antique store before.
