Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[BWeaves]

Wow JEG: Those earrings are gorgeous. What an unusual setting. I love it. Well, I love all your pearl pieces.

I'm still in a "keshi" mood from Hisano's keshi live event. Today I'm wearing Mom's Dragon Rice Krispie necklace. 12 strands of iridescent, slightly peachy pearls and gold beads. The clasp is actually in the back of the dragon's head. The ring in its mouth moves, but does not come out. The eye's are rubies. There are diamonds on the ring and on the dragon's forehead. There are sapphires on the cap opposite the dragon's head.

I always thought I didn't like freshwater pearls, because it took years for me to warm up to the Rice Krispies. Now I kinda love them, and they don't culture these anymore.

I got my edison ring in today. I'm not even convinced it's a real pearl. It is a literal pearl shaped mirror!View attachment 468431
Gasp! Breathless!

My Rikitea Tahitians from Druzy came in and I am happy with them. They have lovely overtones. I decided to add them to the Rikiteas from both of my bracelets to make a short strand. It gives me a good excuse to collect more for either a longer strand or a new bracelet, lol.

This is my crappy lighting not even trying to make it look good. I am beyond thrilled with it!

This so beautiful- what a great color! And the luster is amazing. I really like the setting you put it in. Congrats!

Thank you, 2thdktr!

On an unrelated note, I have a neighbor that has 2thdctr as their license plate. I don't even know you personally, but I think of you when I see him!

ooooooooo, I'm going to be out of town at a weaving conference during the SoC live event. I'm sure my wallet will thank me later, but I really want to see the pearls live.

I'm sad you're going to miss it! Douglas is coming with us too. It's going to be a lot of fun!

Just WOW!

Lovely in lapis, BWeaves and CatMom! It’s a great color with your pearls.

Thank you lary007, and wow, that ring is a knock out! Enjoy wearing and gazing at that shiny orb!

I’m still into my beachy mode. There was a cultural festival here this weekend. I visited some of the local crafters and found these little earrings. Originally I was thinking to add a row of pearl dangles, but when I tried them on, I liked the look as is. The FW pearl is actually a nice pair dangling from the golden MOP flowers.

I wore my soufflé pendant with the new akoya keshi necklace from the last live stream. The keshi necklace is a really great layering piece and the pearls themselves are unique. They have really nice orient too.

 

[CatMom]

I like the yellow gold version. Very pretty!

Early enroute, on the way to a business convention at the other end of the country. And I am wearing my Mom’s pendant.

Thank you, lary007, BWeaves and CatMom!

You have some wonderful memories from your mom, BWeaves!

lary007, they are both perfect for layering or on their own!

Anna102, pearls make great traveling companions. Safe travels to you!
