Natural pastel multicolor akoya strands

[Lugana]

I finished matching today. I am rarely pleased with my own work, but this one is spectacular.

36 inches without knots.

Some afternoon shots in diffused sun. Quite a few photos, sorry - couldn't choose which one I like more)) I keep opening the box just to have a look at them









Let's see whether the necklace will stand the color test in the sun tomorrow.. *fingers crossed!*

Lugana, I must be honest...I am not a huge fan of the bubble pearl look. It's pretty, but just not me (I'm a clean lines, no patterns kind of gal)...however, there is always that exception to the rule. This is outstanding. I mean really really outstanding. You have improved upon perfection. Well done!

Oh wow! I love the ombre bubble rope!

Says the artist who creates bubble necklaces from sparkle gemstones and pearls!

Whoops, I almost drooled on my laptop. I can't wait to find out about the sun test tomorrow!

Spectacular. You did it with adding the large pearls and keeping the ombre effect. I expect that the effect is quite subtle in most lighting, however.

 

[amti]

Oooh YES!!! Love it even more than before!!! Crossing fingers for good colors tomorrow!

I agree.. marvellous job and looks lovely.

But. like Red. outdoors in the light I'd be pleasantly surprised if the colours hold. I've never bought multi coloured pearls until the past two years when the colours got strong enough to handle daylight. Good luck tomorrow - do take some in the sun please.

 

[Lugana]

Thanks everyone! Had taken out the strand in direct sun today. I've never been so cruel to any pearls as to take photos in direct sun for me - they passed. I can still see the color. What do you think?



It is subtle, but mostly because the pearls are tiny and look delicate from a distance. When I look down on them on the neck - I can see all the color graduation outdoors. Yuppie!

Here are some outdoor photos: at 3pm in the shade (the sun is still out high though) and in direct sun at about 4pm. Still unstrung so had to be careful not to break the temporary thread they are on (that would be sad )

Yippie is right! Your pearls, Lugana… all Yours! (they are really beautiful on you!!!)

 

[Abi]

They look amazing, especially on you!

 

[amti]

YAY! It's a keeper!!!

 

[JerseyPearl]

These are almost like a secret weapon...they look wonderful in direct daylight, but their true nature is revealed in the cover of darkness...I would keep these for myself if I were you.
