Hey everybody, thought I would introduce myself. My wife absolutely loves pearls. It's her birthstone and her favorite gem. I figured I would do some research so I know what I'm looking for. Needless to say I've been bitten by the bug and I think I am more obsessed with pearls now than my wife is. We are about to have a new baby so I thought it would be a good excuse to buy her something nice. The necklace is 7.5-8mm white freshadama 16 inch. The studs are 7-8mm white metallic freshadama. Both are super pretty. My wife is really into the smaller size pearls and I think they look great. I will take other better pictures as well as neck shots if you would like. I've been learning a lot on this forum though, so keep up the good work.

Such a nice gift for your wife! And welcome! That pearl bug bites pretty hard, doesn't it?

Welcome to PG, NjClem0305! What an awesome hubby you are to conduct such thorough research before picking out your gift to the mom-to-be! Your wife is a lucky lady!

katbran, you are a riot!!

I echo your wife being lucky with a husband who not only buys her pearls, but who has been bitten by the pearl bug!

 

[JerseyPearl]

Oh and NjClem, just remember that men wear pearls too!

Welcome NjClem, what a lovely gift for your wife! It's so nice to see someone willing to do a bit of research before making a pearl purchase.

JerseyPearl has a great idea. A new dad bitten by the pearl bug might look great wearing a Tahitian pearl on a leather cord to celebrate his committment to the new baby

Here are a few better shots, necks shots still to come!

Look at the metallic luster on those studs!

 

[NjClem0305]

Yeah, I was kinda worried that the studs wouldn't match the necklace very well but they look great together, in my slightly biased opinion, haha. I really wanted the metallic studs though and I was very happy with them, as was the wifey.

 

[Katbran]

Wow..PD is right about the lustre on those earrings !!

 

[Sanippy]

Gorgeous!!

 

[BWeaves]

GORGEOUS! Very beautiful.

 

[JerseyPearl]

You really should have warned us to wear our sunglasses...those studs are superb.
