Road trip to Kojima Pearls

[lilliefuzzysocks]

Kojima Pearl Company created these pieces from pearls and mabe` from Douglas McLaurin's Sea of Cortez pearls. I had purchased the pendant mabe at the ruckus from Douglas and was so happy to find someone who could make them into jewelry.

Wow another stunning set of SoC. Kojima did a fabulous job with the settings.

Those bracelets are fantastic! I love how you layered them all together. And that ring (is it layered with others) is gorgeous.

Newberry had a great idea to use this thread to show Kojima pieces. More, please!

Oh, and we need a group shot of those Sea of Cortez sets at the Ruckus.

Over the years I have collected several wonderful pieces from Sarah. Here are just a few of them

Green Tahitians


Sarah created the golden south sea tin cup for my dream drop and made a few changes to the white south sea necklace.


My first visit to Sarah was to her previous studio with the wonderful orange wall. The south sea drop was my dream pearl and the rope was my first Tahitian rope. I asked her to choose the most colorful one she had and this was it. She is now re-doing this strand with aquas. So stay tuned.......


Last springs trip to visit Sarah. Kasumi earrings had been on my wish list for a long while and these caught my eye. The crazy green overtones match a souffle that I have from Pearl Paradise.


I saw this necklace posted on facebook and fell in love and it had to be mine. Aqua is my husbands birthstone.


The necklace is not mine (although I wish it was) the earrings are. Sea of Cortez mabes

Ah, thanks Newberry

 

[BAS]

Thank you for sharing your photos, Newberry. Each piece is so very, very lovely on you!

 

[GemGeek]

Thank you for all the gorgeousness. I am happy to hear that you acquired the aquamarine necklace. You are a perfect pearl model!

 

[Katbran]

Thanks for the great photos ! They are all so beautiful ... thank goodness I live 12,000 miles away I don't think I'd be able to resist!

 

[JerseyPearl]

Newberry, that aqua crystal and pearl necklace is one of my favorites! You really have such a lovely collection of Sarah's creations. I really admire her work and love her play of colors and textures. Very unique and beautiful pieces.

Sarah's studio is a pearl lovers fantasy play land. Thanks everyone for the compliments but truthfully it's all due to Sarah unique style that just speaks to me.
