    How to identify this strand?

    Hi, When I visited my sister last week she gave me this graduated double strand of pearls (though the clasp is broken).

    Drop or circled baroque tahitian pearl strand?

    Hi, As indicated by Jeremy at PP, Kirsten did indeed set aside 5 baroque strands for me to see and I did check them out. I talked to another pearl-guide member and she said she preferred the circled type of baroque strand and liked the darker colors. That is what I was looking for too, but now...

    International Gem & Jewelry show

    Hi-- First of all THANKS for all the response on the 'sticking my NECK' out in regards to my pearls. I do have the opportunity with PP to have my strand lengthened (via email from Kirsten) and just have to decide if that is what I want to do or maybe wait and purchase a longer strand later. :)...

    Pearl Paradise order arrived - see photos

    My Pearl Paradise order arrived....here is the story. In January I ordered the 7-8mm Freshadamas with a pair of coordinating drop earrings.

    Feedback - are colored strands of pearls practical?

    Just wanted some feedback from those you have colored strands of pearls? Are they practical to wear with lots of things? Of course, 'white' pearls go with most anything, just wanted if the colored pearls (peach, lavendar, multicolored) are worth the investment?
