Shanghai trip

[Raisondetre]

The rest of my loot - mostly cheapish costume jewellery.

Mixed white and pink keshis with shell clasp:

 

[Raisondetre]

Pink triple strand FW with shell clasp. I think these are AA+ quality, though some are a bit more off-round. Luster is excellent and blemishing minimum, probably 6-7 mm.

Dyed golden triple strand FW with shell clasp, AA quality.

 

[Raisondetre]

~32" white AA+ FW rope, 7-8 mm with porcelain spacers.

 

[Raisondetre]

Two strands of random potato lavender FW pearls with an assortment of spacers I can't name.

Hi Raisondetre,

lovely strands, especially the triple-row strand.

Hi Raisondetre - I agree with Inge - that dyed gold 3 strand piece is lovely - also like the grey/black & unnamed spacer strands - they would look great on! Were these from Pearl's Circles, or from the Hongqiao market? Love your pictures too, thanks for posting them.

 

[Raisondetre]

All these were from Hongqiao market. Only the 8-9 mm lavender strand was from Pearl Circle/Village Fuyou Road. I haven't managed to photograph the brooches my mom got from Daxi at Pearl City Nanjing Road.

I want to go to Shanghai!! All your purchases are beautiful, especially your lavender pearls. With all the money you saved from these purchases you can more pearls.

All very eye-catching, especially the blue porcelain beads with pearls. What fun, I look forward to your future adventures!
