A wonderful pearl. What size is it, and what are you planning to do with it? I always take some time having my pearls drilled...I can spend hours staring at them instead of sorting them and shipping them out for drilling!

Hi JP-

I think this just might be a "collection" piece, but I just found a bunch of little nubby 8mm Tahitian pearls with the same overtones, now I am rethinking doing something with them all. I am a "stack" type of guy. I'm replacing Black Onyx and Agates, with Tahitian pearls in my bracelets collection, so this might be the center of a Garnet, Chrome Diopside and (a to be identified blue gem) bracelet for my "stack". Regarding size it is just shy of 12mm

That sounds like a fun repurposing project!

Well it's good to know that we all have a touch of dragon running through our veins...sitting on our pile of pearls and gems ....murmuring " mine...all mine..." You have no idea what it takes for me to sell something lol. I've got a friend who asked two weeks ago for a quote on 5 blackened bangles with various dangles ( dangle bangle) ...she's still waiting and I'm still looking at them on my desk. Hopeless ( as some of you know all too well ..wink..)

BPD - nice photo and a lovely pearl..gorgeous colours ..you caught it well I think ! And I love the idea of your bracelet ..I'm sure you'll be kind enough to post a photo ..even one while you are sorting it out...it's fun to see the process. Very interested to see how the colour combo works !

It is an amazing color. These small pearls are so bright that I am seriously thinking to travel to the area (I heard it is not too touristy) and visit at the farms. Nr 2 on my list after Sea of Cortez farm.

 

[Camelotshadow]

Drooooool...

 

[Pearly-Whites]

Such a beautiful color combination!!

 

[Camelotshadow]

Oooooooooh love the star Ruby & pearl...

OOOOPPPs jsut got an idea. I have one that has a small pink sapphire drop hanging....I think a pearl hanging would even be nicer...

BPD, you should not be buying these pearls --don't you know I want them ALL? . Seriously I understand finding the colors of these delightful pearls kind of addicting, and in fact I value the strong colors way more than imperfections or anything else. Some of mine have different color circles and remind me of planets in the cosmos. I love them! Thanks for the pictures of your fascinating pearls.

Camelotshadow, that's a really pretty pendant. I think I'd like it with a pearl drop, too.

 

[Camelotshadow]

Thanks, its palladium n that drop is small n always twists. Guess a nice sea of cortez would be devine. What I dont like is the ruby is set w glue.l think it was once a pair of earrings n 1 was lost.

 

[JerseyPearl]

Because it's Tuesday...I love this pair of Mangareva Tahitians.

 

[Camelotshadow]

Wow those are dark peacock...Would go nice w my pendant or a more silver body w purple/pink

Lovely...

 

[Pearl Dreams]

Beautiful colors, JerseyPearl!

 

[battah]

Those are just stunning, JP! Gorgeous colors.

 

[Cicadalady]

Jersey Pearl - those are truly outrageous!!! Thanks for showing them to us.

 

[JerseyPearl]

This happens to be a favorite pair...they actually look somewhat washed out in that photo.

 

[Katbran]

Beautiful colour ! If that's washed out ...holy moly ! Lol !
