My Natural Pearl Collection

[MSC]

Thank you, Lisa, Blaire and Pattye! I'm really glad I sent this to my jeweler because it ended up needing new posts as well as 12 of the prongs retipped. My jeweler used a laser welder in order to save the patina. He really gets me

Gorgeous ring, Andrea!

That's a beautiful ring!

That's gorgeous!!! I've learned a lot from your thread and your pearls. Lovely Pipis and gorgeous setting!

 

[MSC]

Thanks y'all! I just moved across the country (again) and am slowly unpacking all the pearls

 

[pattye]

Happy trails Andreas. Let us know when you are settled back. I'm going to spend more time on the forum these days. My pearl addiction came back, and i'm indulging in it. Always a pleasure to read your posts. All the best !

Thanks, Sophie! I've been pretty absent on here lately as well, all the moving has been wearing. So glad to hear your pearl obsession has returned, I always love seeing your finds

New project!
Finally found a setting for a pearl I've had a while. I'm going to have it plated in white gold and will keep the 6 prong arrangement. An acquaintance in LA is going to do it for me, so now I just wait for the setting to get here ��.

A year and some in the making! Golden pipis on white gold, basic graduated necklace. 2-4mm. Vintage 18kt white gold and rose cut diamond clasp and a white gold safety chain.

Beautiful necklace, and well worth the wait! Your ring project sounds interesting too.

That's a gorgeous strand, MSC! I love the colors and luster on those golden pipis. Congratulations on the completion of a wonderful project : )

 

[MSC]

Thanks, JP and BN! I'm happy to have finally completed this one. Now, to do a bracelet. I sourced a nice clasp for that, but it'll take a while to get the pearls. These projects certainly require patience

JP the ring is getting its makeover as we speak! We ended up going with rhodium plating, so hopefully it'll turn out well.

OOOOO, I love your Pipis!
