Silver or gold (vermeil) findings? Help me decide!

[maiakity]

Hi All,
I finally received some ripples I am happy with! I just can't decide between silver or gold findings, help me decide please ASAP!!! I simply can't wait to string them up and will probably work on it tonight

The colors are showing a little paler on the photos than they are IRL...

Lovely lustrous pearls! Well, perhaps vermeil would be a slightly better choice (less contrast), but I'd probably make comfort a priority over clasp color. Those are pretty heavy pearls and a large, comfortable clasp will make them easy to wear all day long!

 

[maiakity]

Thanks Pattye for your input !! I was thinking a toggle or possibly a large S clasp regardless of color...

 

[CharmedOne]

They are lovely! I agree with Pattye. I would go will the vermeil. I think that color would look really rich next to those pearls. ~d

 

[juliebeth]

yes vermeil. esp since you can just re-string them if the gold wears off (after you've worn them every day for a while, like i sure would!) those are gorgeous!!! saving two for earrings?

Those are really beautiful, nice choice! I think I'd go with gold, too. I always do silver because I prefer to wear it myself, but I think gold with those pearls will look really rich. Lovely!

Lovely ! I like the idea of the vermeil with those..the photo, on my monitor, shows the colours as lavenders and purples with a gold sheen ? Really pretty and they look to be a good size as well. Very nice!

Gorgeous pearls!

I think rose gold vermeil would look stunning.

 

[maiakity]

Vermeil it is!!! Strung them up, will post photos as soon as it's light enough out to get some good shots Thanks for all of your input!

 

[pattye]

Bernadette, Oh, yes! Rose gold vermeil! I need to get some!! That would be perfect! Waiting for photos!

Beautiful pearls malakity! Looking forward to photos of the finished strand.

 

[juliebeth]

where are pics? NEED NOW.

 

[maiakity]

Ha Ha! I strung them on a simple vermeil S clasp for now, but I love the suggestion of rose gold vermeil and I am going to keep my eye out for the perfect rose gold clasp, will re-string when I find it!!! Pics:









I simply can't get a good neck shot showing the beautiful colors and iridecence, they look so washed out in the pics, but alas.

Lovety love love love...
