I'm still in a big, colorful, pearl mood. Ripples from Pacific Pearls, and Kasumi drops from Kojima worn on my Mom's diamond hoops. The modeled photo doesn't show the colors at all like they look in real life. The laying flat photo shows the colors.
OK I was going to wait until I get through the last 100 posts to put up a pic, but I just finished my first wire bending artsy necklace and want some input please.
The necklace was initially the choker type, but found that I wasn't reaching for it so I thought I would go for a layering piece which I can double or lariat etc.
I chose these awesome beads to implement in the project but I fear they get lost in the necklace. What do you all think? Honesty is appreciated. Sorry for the shaky image while worn.

Berna, that purple necklace is my new favourite. I am also a huge fan of the swan, so much so that I am going to have my jeweller create something similar with a white FWP that I have. I hope you don't mind!

Shani: Go for it!!!! Since every baroque pearl is unique, there's no way it will be an exact copy, so you'll be able to make it your own!!!!
Plus, my "job" when I was young was to try on the clothing at my parents small clothing store. As I walked around the store in each outfit, the customers would say, "OOOOO, do you have THAT outfit in my size?" If I saw someone out in the wild wearing one of my outfits, I knew I'd done my job.
I think your revised tin-cup really shows off those unique pearls better than the choker did.

Sorry for the delay lol still working through the forum and am 25 pages away from completion! Yes, I got them from the Takahashi live eventShani ‐ welcome to PG! I have gone through a lot of the older pages too. I've been here since 2014 I think but there's a ton I haven't seen. It really is a feast for the eyes. And thank you for adding you fabulous pearls to the mix! Side note - did you get the ones you bought from PP from a live sale? That necklace looks very familiar!
Jeg - Oh I love those little pearl huggies! The drops look great on those. Those vintage akoyas still have fantastic luster too
I think so too, however from any distance, the beads do get lost, so I think I will shorten the necklace a bit and replace the beads with more of the flat freshies, I think that would compliment the pearls better imo.
I DID IT!!! I made it through every post in this thread!!! I am simply overwhelmed by all of the beauty here. I guess now it's time to post a few of my own. The first really expensive pearls I bought were at Na Hoku, and I sometimes wondered if I over-paid for them. My only disappointment with them is that they have a SS clasp and considering the price, the pearls better be some darn good quality lol! I love them though (combo SS and Tahitians).

All EFFY jewellry imo is VERY overpriced.
