My 1st Exotics

[morphius]

So these are my 1st exotics - just arrived a few minutes ago from Beijing...still gotta get the hand of a clearer image though - the colour quality is also better when image is viewed on a Mac (in my opinion)

 

[KarinK]

Prettiiiiiiiii! What will you use them for?

Looks good! What are the sizes?

 

[morphius]

Sizes are 6.5-7mm and 7.5-8mm. They are destined for necklaces and bracelets. I also managed to pick up a bunch of loose (and not drilled) ranging in size from 6mm up to 10mm.

Those are really really pretty! Show us the finished goods pls

Are these the pearls from PearlParadise you posted about earlier? Oops, maybe not you?
I think your photo is good, makes the pearls look justifiably luscious.

No, not from Pearl Paradise...if they were, no doubt they'd be nicer. The pearls are from a Beijing supplier.

They look quite decent. Again, please let us see the finished pieces please!

 

[lisa c]

Still very pretty!

 

[Pearl Dreams]

I love that metallic shine and those pretty colors.

 

[Amrita]

Nice pearls, Morphius! Me like!

 

[pearlescence]

Very nice pearls. If you bought remotely, good supplier.

 

[Adeline Leigh]

OoOo, nice ones!

 

[imanit]

my kind of pearls !! love them !! Congratulation on great purchase..

 

[Nerida]

Wendy I agree entirely! They just keep getting better and better, don't they?

 

[morphius]

I'll post pics tonight of the finished necklaces, but I'm quite excited after having the pearls come back from the GIA Appraiser...especially because many of the pearls have an almost metallic sheen to them - my first pic above really doesn't do them justice.

The 18-inch 7.5-8mm Exotic FWP necklace appraised at $1,875.00 CDN, and the 18-inch 6.5-7mm Exotic FWP necklace appraised at $1,650.00 CDN.

 

[Joyful Grow]

Best grade. Good.

 

[morphius]

Oh shoot - totally forgot to provide updated photos...so here's a quick few...though i realize i should have given the necklace a quick wipe before shooting it.

 

[KarinK]

Do you do the knotting yourself? Very good job!

- Karin

 

[pattye]

Very pretty! What size are these pearls? Nice knotting!!
