New beader and pearl obssesionista in town... needing your help :-)

Those multicoloured circles are just fabulous- what wonderful colours. Some of Wen’s Tahitians have been really good lately, and the price makes them a fairly guilt-free pleasure

 

[Parrot Lady]

Great multi colors, eolian! I bought a strand of her “pastels”, too. They’re not pastel, but they are very nice multi-colors. Wen has had some nice Tahitians recently and I like the changes she’s made In how they’re pictured.

 

[Charlotta]

The baroque tahitians are really colorful. If you use the same clasp on future bracelet you can combine the bracelet with the strand and make it longer if you wanted to, it makes the pearls really versatile. I have done that with some of my pearls. I sometimes begin the day with a sorter strand and a bracelet and ends it with a longer strand or vice versa.

Thank you for your lovely comments ladies!
I have ordered another one of Wen’s “pastel” strands - a half stand this time either for a bracelet ( as Charlotta suggested with the same clasp to combine it) or simply to add to this strand...will decide once I get the pearls...will keep you posted...

Some neckshots of the circled strand...Must say I am really happy with it

 

[Charlotta]

The circled tahitians looks great on you.

 

[SydK]

It looks great on your neck and with all your grey clothes - different in each shot, but still wonderfully colourful. It’s a good size on you, too. How are you achieving the additional length in some shots?

 

[eolian pearls]

Thank you Charlotta and SydK!

I have added one if my bracelets with orbit clasp to make the necklace longer. I really like it long so maybe I will just add the pearls from half strand that I ordered to make it a rope..let’s see in about a month

 

[BWeaves]

OOO, I love your circled strands. And orbit clasps are so useful. They look good when worn in front. They make the necklaces sit well behind the neck. And they are great for linking other pieces together. I'm slowly replacing all my boring clasps with orbit clasps. I still like a fancy clasp on some necklaces though.

Your neck shots show how pretty, color and versatile your new strand is. It looks beautiful.

Thank you BWeaves and Gemandpearlover! Orbit clasps are my favorite, they are unassuming, elegant and so so useful, but I agree there are some clasps that are true work of art and it is a pity to put them behind one’s neck where no one can see them...I love to see some clasps on PG that are actually in front, they add beauty to the already beautiful piece......

Sending out a little pearl feast to distract for a minute from the surreal times we are living right now... Stay safe pearl friends...

New fun pieces from our collaboration with Margaret of Simply Adorned on Etsy and a white-pistacchio akoya necklace from Ocean Rhyme that has been on my wishlist for the longest while... ( the glamour shots are from Ocean Rhyme)
The tiny blue akoya keshi necklace is from Wendy of Pearlescence, the tahitians on mismatched earrings and rings are from Wen.

 

[Charlotta]

So many gorgeous pieces.

 

[pattye]

EP, you're rocking the new pieces! Oh, the tiny blue keshi, so special, but all are fabulous!!

 

[BWeaves]

OOOO, lovely.

 

[SydK]

Pretty, pretty, pretty! Thanks for sharing.

 

[multichrome]

Lovely pieces—beautiful pearls and designs. The blues are so serene. Thank you for sharing the beauty!

 

[eolian pearls]

Thank you ladies, you’re right blues are still my favorites

Two unexpected necklace creations to share - I bought some 4-4,5mm metallics from Wen that were supposed to be made into bracelets and had a light grey green Tahitian prepared to go with tanzanite rondelles...And then magic happened and instead of two bracelets I have a new necklace somehow the metallics really compliment the greenish Tahitian imo...

The tanzanites were there and since I also got my tiny buttons from Wen ( 3,5-4mm thank you for the tip Gemandpearlover!) I dismanteled a leather bracelet ( not a day for bracelets apparently with a silver white Tahitian from Jac and another casual necklace was made.... Really nice surprise these two - I feel like they designed themselves and I just put them together

 

[BWeaves]

OOOO, those are both lovely.
