In terms of luster the pairs 2,3,7 (top down) look best on my screen. In terms of colour, I personally would probably go for a pair nr. 3 as I am fan of vivid colours, but that is just a personal preference, of course.
 
Six. I like how dark and lustrous they are. It's hard to see the overtones, but I really like the dark body color. Enjoy!
 
No. 5 counting from the top for me.

If you took them all, you could have a faboo tin cup type necklace! :cool:
 
I love 2nd, 3rd and last pair too! Soon difficult to make a decision and fab idea about making them into a necklace ..... Don't encourage me..... Haha!
 
Really, isn't it hard to choose when they are all so beautiful? Flip a coin? :cool:
 
The third pair from the top caught my attention immidiately.

Karin, I immediately liked those best, too. I wonder how many people were drawn first to the warmer color? :)

I really like the teal and peacock variety but looking at the array of pearls, the third pair was the one I noticed the most.

When I bought my pair of large Tahitians from John this summer in Oregon at the Gem Faire, I deliberately chose a dark green and a bronze. I love that the colours don't match completly. To me it's a richer experience.

I am drawn to blues and greens, hence I went for No. 5 from the top.

I don't know how you can all tell the colors from lightbox photos. It looks like mostly just shine or glare or something to me. Number three down, for example, I can't tell if it's a more unusual color in a way I would like or just brown. I can't tell much at all when they're not in natural light.
 
Number 2 have that silver blue tone that I normally lean toward. The funny thing is that the Tahitian color that looks best on me is green. When you drape a multi-color strand over my wrist, only the green enhances my skin. Of course, I wear all the colors of pearls anyway. Peach looks insipid on me, but I still just love them. But put them on a redhead - va va voom! :)
 
I was immediately drawn to #3 as well. Love the pink and green colors. But, since I already have a wonderful pair like that, I would go for #5.

I'm like GemGeek. Silver blue is gorgeous, green looks great on me, and I have learned to avoid peach freshies. Peach does absolutely nothing for me, so I have to hold out for lavender, which has more blue undertones in the color.
 
My eyes are green and I choose green pearls.
Naturally I blonde but I prefer to be a brunet. When I blonde I prefer darker green and when I brunet I prefer lighter green
Different people prefer different shades. So many factors : eyes, hairs, skin, personal preferences. So difficult to choose something for somebody.
