Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[Pearl Dreams]

Gorgeous Edisons, CatMom, such lovely pinks and peaches!

Thank you, Jeg! I like making pendants but then I forget to wear them since strands are easier to put on in my half-awake-before-work state

BWeaves, your little h collection is gorgeous (especially your emerald pendant), and I really love your new ruby pieces today! Pretty Kamoka Ts, too.

GSS necklace and ring from Pearl Paradise today.

What a nice sunny color! And a beautiful length. Is that 24"?

 

[BWeaves]

SurfnSci: Wow, those are gorgeous Goldens. Just the right amount of baroqueness, with green and rose overtones, and shiny. Wow.

Today, it's Kojima Tahitians for me. These were the first Tahitians I ordered that I kept. The white gold and sapphire, leaf shaped clasp sucked me in. The pearls looked like nothing in the box, but just came alive next to my skin. They're not dark, and they're not pastel, and they're not super colorful, but they have a lot of color. They're very hard to describe. But they have the right amount of plumpiness. This was the start of my love affair with large, baroque, colorful pearls.

The earrings match well, despite being yellow gold and opals. This was my first experience with the horseshoe finding and I love it. I've had Sarah replace a few of the hooks on my earrings with these horseshoes.

I love that clasp!

 

[BWeaves]

I love that clasp!

I'm a sucker for a good clasp. It just elevates a strand into a necklace.

I wasn't good last night. I'm still hyperventilating about my purchase. I had a virtual meeting with Hisano and Jeremy this morning. It was lovely to talk to them in person again. I picked out a yellow gold orbit clasp, and grape thread from Pattye (or maybe night color, but probably grape) to knot the necklace. It's going to be a bit longer than normal. The pearls already measure 18 inches, and the large orbit clasp and knots will also add some length.

For the virtual meeting, I wore my latest little h purchases. The lighting is very dark today. The rubies are much brighter in real life.

Yesterday it was Kamoka all the way. Coral Atoll necklace and Bali earrings. One of my favorite jeans & T-shirts strands.

Gorgeous Tahitians and I especially love the opal earrings!

 

[CatMom]

Today I am wearing my green Tahitian strand and bracelet along with a cherry and green Komoka ring, green Komoka pendant and my Baroque Tahitian earrings.

 

[BWeaves]

OOO, CatMom, those T's are gorgeous. The ring! The earrings! I especially love the clasps on the necklace and bracelet.

Thanks BWeaves! I love those clasps too.

 

[SurfnSci]

Happy weekend, all!

Thank you for your kind words, Jeg, Pearl Dreams, BWeaves and CatMom!

BWeaves, love your Kojima look yesterday and that clasp! CatMom, those are gorgeous Ts, and I agree with BWeaves that the clasps are especially lovely. Gosh, I need to step up my clasp game. Pearl Dreams, wow, impressive eye - The strand is 20 inches, but I wore a ~3 inch chain extender (not pictured) so just about 24 in!

Cortez mabe necklace today. I wear it frequently, but it never seems to photograph very accurately. Today the light cooperated a bit!

I love your Mabe necklace SurfnSci! The colors are so delicate but beautiful. I would wear it all the time as well.

Drool worthy!!

 

[BWeaves]

SurfnSci: Wow, those SoC mabe pearls are amazing.

Stopping to admire everyone’s pearls- BWeaves, CatMom, SurfnSci! You all look gorgeous!!!

We’re off on an adventure!

 

[BWeaves]

BUNNY! Where is traveling pearl going?

 

[jeg]

A couple more teasers… and a give away…

Did you guess??? We’re in Tucson all week for the gem show!

 

[BWeaves]

OOOOOOH! Those were giant geodes! I thought they were ice.

Kojima huge coin pearl and ruby ring. Mom's dragon torsade. 12 strands of Rice Krispie pearls. The clasp mechanism is actually BEHIND the dragon's head, and is not the ring in his mouth.

 

[BWeaves]

Hi Pattye. Hisano is getting some thread from you for my Edison necklace. I was thinking Grape would look great with those purple pearls.
