Thank you pattye for chiming in. I have just cleaned it quickly and spent some time to appreciate it. Enjoy this little thing and sharing more pix with you guys. It's at least 20 years old and still looks smart.

So I've got it here. Some photos indoor lighting. I'm curious how you find it. from top down and in strong light I see peacock. Poor light bottom up I see boring black 😅 Is this normal? Looking at myself in the mirror in strong spotlight I find it quite beautiful. Size is definitely wearable as...

Hi all, Just wanted to share a recent purchase for my 78-year-old mom. I got her a pair of Majorica studs with omega clasps and a matching strand also from Majorica. I really wanted her to have something beautiful that she could actually enjoy wearing without any of the "fiddling" or stress. I...

Hi all, Hi everyone! I’ve finally taken the leap into the world of dark pearls with my very first Tahitian pendant. Since I’m a total newcomer to Tahitians, I’d love to tap into the collective wisdom here. From these seller photos, what are your first impressions of the surface quality and...

I don't have many pearls. These small velvet boxes help me to keep them safe nicely. I also have small pieces of clothes handy to give my pearls a gentle swipe whenever I think about doing that ☺️

Early enroute, on the way to a business convention at the other end of the country. And I am wearing my Mom’s pendant.

Wise words! 😍

Thank you so much! I sure will take good care of it and enjoy (and stop scrutinizing ☺️). Good to know it’s an Akoya.

This pearl pendant is kept in a box mixed with other metal jewelries and gets scratched badly. Is there a way to polish the scratches? Also I think they did a bad job drilling the hole, it looks like a mess there 😞 And can you tell what kind of pearl is this? It’s from my mom and it holds...

Thanks so much! I’m gonna email him. Just to share with you, I’m looking for a simple Akoya collier, single pearl pendant of 8mm. I am based in Amsterdam and would like to come and see the products instead of online order. Pix for the idea. I particularly like how the pearl is hung onto that...

May I ask if you have another way than Instagram to contact Cees van Oije ? I sent him a message in Insta last week Friday but haven’t heard back from him.

Thanks a lot for your answer. I did order online but they turned out to be disappointing. So I gave up the idea and prefer to go to a brick and mortar shop to have a look with my own eyes. Is it normal that two studs are so different? From afar no one would realize but I pick them up everyday...

Thanks so much Pearl Dream esp about the contact of Cees van Oije. And indeed it bothers me. Not sure if I should go ahead and ask the shop to find a better matching stud. Would I sound ridiculous for such a question then?

Hi pearl lover fellows, I’m a proud new owner of this pair of earrings. These are my very first pearls and I have been so happy. Yet… after closely examining the studs I realize a rather difference of the qualities of these studs. One stud has less luster and an uneven surface compared to the...
