LOVE the opal and abalone! you are an artist, DM! and please post the second you finish those earrings - i canNOT wait to see what you do with those pretty pearls!

 

[dmj]

[LitGeek]

That opal and abalone ring is just gorgeous! You are amazingly talented! Also looking forward to seeing those conch earrings finished!

I'm happy for you to get the income, but sad for us that we can't see the work.

thanks for letting me know they are working on the new website ( now its from 2007 ) so sometimes its offline think in februari everything will be working again

 

[dmj]

all the round ones are my special project they are will probable take some years before this will become something



pearls in front are nr 1 abalone nr 2 quahog nr 3 modiolus nr 4 poe pipi nr 5 modiolus nr 6 conch nr 7 abalone nr 8 modiolus nr 9 conch nr 10 pinctada nr 11 pinctada


the pearls i had for earrings might actually end up in a necklace


so this shows a little how i work i just play around with the pearls and other gems and after a while if i like the shapes / colors i will start making jewelry from them

and so we keep on playing

 

[GemGeek]

Thanks for coming out to play!

 

[MSC]

really lovely photos of your pearls and process! how do you envision setting the pearls?

 

[LitGeek]

This has to be my favorite thread on PG! Your designs are just breathtaking! I look forward to seeing the final result of that necklace (if it does indeed end up as a necklace). Please share more designs/finished pieces with us. I promise we will never tire of seeing them.

 

[dmj]

thank you for the complements thats what i do it for i will deff upload more pieces when i have time working on these

@andrea i will most likely set them with claws since i don't like drilling pearls like this with the risk that comes with drilling

dmj love the little brother abalone next to the mother of abalone.. I want to see this new arrival up close shortly..!

 

[dmj]

its not that new think its summer last year but if you travel to san diego and search the costumer you might find it

next to my own jewelry when i see nice antique pieces i also buy them, these three pieces are from last month

the abalone pearl pendant i found on ebay some weeks ago its part victorian era part 1970 when they restored some of the gold. the pearl should be around 80 - 100 carat looking at the gold used and comparing to other pearl i have this size





the conch pearl pendant is one that has to be art nouveau there is a similar on one etsy with a mississippi pearl saying that only i think its a repro from around 1980. the pearl shows clear frame and has some small hair lines should be +- 1 ct



the third one is the largest and ugly ( somehow pretty ) and its quite a big piece weighting 156 ct. i got it out of the pendant that should be made around 1960 and will have a report made on the pearl in the next weeks so will keep you guys informed with that

 

[Caitlin]

Thank you for recording parts of your fantastic collection here. The abalone pendent you found was a lucky find!

 

[dmj]

i need to do it more often these where only from some weeks, its so busy here with jewelry production work that i always forget to make good pictures of pieces that come in if i have time i will also add some awesome blisters soon
