Fiji Pearls

[Red]

Love those two bracelets...of course my brain goes immediately to orbits...hmmm....what else can you connect them to?

Thank you, JerseyPearl. I like the orbits on my bracelets because they are easier to handle than fishhooks or lobster clasps. One thing I know for sure, you will never see me hooking them together to make a choker. I am so not a choker girl.

Thank you, Jacques.

Yes, I said to Jeremy yesterday that you are a deliberate thinker.

 

[BWeaves]

OOOOO, those are pretty.

Thank you so much, Jeremy. You and Hisano are the best.

Thank you so much battah, Purranha, and CathyKeshi.

Cathy - There was a big bag of pearls on the cart at PP with your name on it. Looking forward to seeing your projects in action.

newberry - Your strands of white Tahitians are done and look amazing. Jeremy MADE me try them on, and that is when I can really see the gold and blue overtones pop. You are a most amazing Pearl Queen.

I'm sooo glad you saw them and tried them on. Jeremy has amazing pearls and it is easy to be a pearl queen when you are wearing his pearls

Orbit clasps rule!!

I never thought about wearing chokers, but after I realized both my bracelets fit round my neck I became a choker girl. Although, more often than not, I do reach for my ropes!

Yesterday I wore it with my new blue/green Tahitian strand.

 

[KaySD]

LMG, your new strand is stunning, as is your Fiji bracelet choker. I love the Orbit clasps too.

 

[newberry]

Great look Imgarden!!! Your pearls are divine

 

[lmgarden]

Thank you KaySD and Newberry!!

Perhaps another PP reunion is on the horizon... !!??

Lord, that golden drop. That's the stuff of dreams!

OH i cannot tell you guys how much i love this thread!

RED I TOTALLY KNOW THAT BLUE-WHITE PEARL, we became best friends at the ruckus. if you can't wear 2 as a choker, then i definitely think you need a third.

I love the bracelets, all y'all! such Fiji loveliness.

November is coming...tickets in hand...the whole fam is practicing photo- and video-documentation this weekend...

 

[lmgarden]

How exciting. Juliebeth! I'm so envious... I know you'll have a wonderful time with your family in Fiji! Can't wait to see what baubles you'll return with! In the meantime, I've got another Fiji Pearl project in the works at PP...

 

[Red]

Juliebeth - I know. That blue and white pearl just had to come home with me. I love being able to put it into the white Tahitian bracelet.
There were still a lot of Fiji pearls left, including two tones and lots of golden and brown toned pearls.

What a treat to see the new harvest in Fiji. Truly a trip of a lifetime.

Lmgarden - Are you working on a Fiji necklace? Perhaps a third Fiji bracelet so you have a choker and a bracelet set? Or, maybe a ring?

Red, my new project started out as a ring, but morphed into a necklace with garnets! I'm excited about it - it'll be quite different from my 2 bracelets/ necklace, but they'll all be interchangeable. I'll be sure to post once it's finished.

Looking forward to wrist shots of your bracelets!!!

 

[Justin Hunter]

Love your work guys.
So fascinating to see pics of our pearls on here - love what you guys have done.
Red that Fiji bracelet - 2nd one in, our left. That is one of the chocolate kisses I sent up.
They are unique - don't really even know how to set these. But I really love the those.
They have a certain funk of their own.

We start harvesting in the next week or so. Let the fun begin. Always get a little nervous about now.

Hopefully it will be beautiful and I will post along here

 

[CathyKeshi]

Oh, Justin, can't wait to see the new harvest photos! If any keshi are found lurking in there, be sure to get a snapshot of those for me Best luck!
