I am always looking for appropriate things to wear to ruckuses and pretty much failed at it. BUT, no more! I have a fashion icon. She is one of the "stars" of my new blog sign-up to Advanced Style. Well I can't get the hair right, but wow. this blog is FULL of Advanced style...

A Layman's Guide. From Kari's Pearls, a treatise by Maria Haws. I see this is from 2002, so maybe we already have it listed. http://www.ctsa.org/files/publications/CTSA_1276316728619239483681.pdf Just what I want!

It sure looked like Gabby Gifford was wearing one during the State of the Union address toinight.

I just got my AGTA guide and notice that Elisabeth Strack's yearly pearl lecture will be on FRIDAY Feb 5, 2016. The subject is "Identifying Pearls: Natural or Colored, (beaded or non-beaded) Original Appearance or Treated" Greenlee Room, 9-10AM I didn't see this posted here, so if it is a...

I hope this is just the first post in a thread noting "important" pearls up for sale- usually at auction houses. Important pearls are the ones that get top dollar or the famous ones. Here is the first offering on this thread: Member ECurly sent me this video a couple of weeks ago. I have been...

I saw an article saying so but I couldn't follow the link- something was wrong with it. It was in Professional Jeweler, but their site is backed-up or something. So, I could be wrong, so let's have a denial or a second source. :confused: I think this is really interesting news!

This article was forwarded to me from Pearl-Guide friend and member Robin McL. It reminds me that this Aramco Magazine has had some excellent articles on pearling in the Gulf Region over the last 8 decades. http://www.saudiaramcoworld.com/issue/201306/the.pearl.emporium.of.al.zubarah.htm...

Here is a practice video for knotting without tools. I recommend you use Pearl Dream's instructions for making a pearl necklace. (also a sticky on Lowly beader's club) But if you want to know how to knot without tools, then switch to this video after the clasp and beads are all strung on. I...

http://www.tahiti-infos.com/Un-moratoire-sur-les-concessions-maritimes-perlicoles_a76426.html A friend just sent this to me. Below is the translation. Above is the original link. Maybe it is saying Tahiti is trying to control/maintain quailty but limiting competition? , but I have no idea what...

Hi all. I saw these online. They are definitely freshwater pearls. They do look old and are being sold as old. Do you think they could possibly be old? By which I mean NOT cultured Chinese freshwater pearls, but something else. I am wondering and would like to get opinions from one and all...
