In all its white, gold, greenish baroque glory :-)

Thank you all for the kind words! I was surprised of how many loose pearls I had when I gathered earrings and pendant I don't use and a charms bracelet that serves the purpose of keeping my random SSP together. And the charms bracelet is still fully functional. I'll take a close-up tomorrow.

It turned out that while I don't really have a Tahitian stash, I do have a SSP stash - that I had forgotten about. So I made this wire wrapped bracelet the other day. Very happy with it :-) In the pictures I'm wearing it with my 22k Indian gold bracelet - from Chicago.

That sounds really really miserable. At least you are on the mend but I bet you need the cast on for weeks, right?

I believe the last pearl is to illustrate what a Tahitian looks like after her husband wears it down.

You can also reach Cees through his Instagram account. It turned out to be a little expensive to follow him because the pearls look sooo good, are already in the EU, and you can buy with a few messages and a snap of your fingers. I should have known better than to ask him if he happened to have...

I looked up a name dropped by eolian pearls in the Pearls in Action thread, https://www.terremerlove.com/designs Oh wow! I also saw some prices at some dealers website. No way. But there are so many ideas for own designs to be had from this it makes me want to ask if there are any leads for...

You might want to take a look at Kamoka for that. They use kangaroo leather and it'll hold up for daily showering as well as surfing.

Could it be gilded rather than solid gold?

Wow! Such colors! I would actually make a pendant and set it so that you can turn it for two different expressions. A 2-in-1 pendant :-)

Off-hand - and please, anyone correct me! - I am thinking blue Akoya. I have a friend who showed me a few blue Akoya pearls she had from way before anyone paid any attention to them and hers had blemishes too. I am also pretty that gold was much cheaper back then. I even have a ring that looks...

I am not a friend of the leather bracelets, sadly. I find it difficult to put them off and take them off and I have to take it off when I play guitar so no leaving it on for days. - Karin

Agree on the strand. It's fake. The color is super strange and you can see the layer peeling off. Did you check what the broche is made of? Is it real gold or not? Even if the two pearls are Akoya (saltwater pearls) the value of the gold would be much higher than the pearls. If the broche is...

Maybe try to get shipping with DHL instead. It is my impression they have a better reputation in Europe.
