Tahitian Peacock Pears

Care Ehret's matched tahitian pair finally came and though they were much smaller (at 10.5 mm) than the usual freshwater focals I favour, I put them to freely sway in a style like this.

One question of all tahitian experts on PG, please: is 10mm about the average size for a tahitian drop and would a 14-15mm drop be a biggie? I do like mine big, and I am thinking of scouting for more should my budget permit, though the petite ones I bought from Ehret have a nice metallic lustre that I am crazy for.

Everything is so pretty - Pear-ls and C. Ehret's - both! Although big pearls are great, sometimes it's nice to have dainty earrings, too. Don't you love having choices? :cool:
 
Those are gorgeous! Sometimes less is more as in the second pair. the first pair looks like you could add quite a bit to it!.
 
Plenty of larger drops around. pairing them up might be the tricky stage for the 14-15mm - depends how much of a match you want since there won't be such a big pool to pick from.
 
thought I would try and take some more picis of the pears with the canon in the summer light. Am trying a light reflector now, you know, one of those big white umbrella things, except this one is actually BV?s bathrobe slung over a step-ladder !!

here they are with some cream sweet-peas, with a hint of blush

The rose gold is MORE than perfect. Those might just bee the prettiest Tahitian earrings I have ever seen!!!! The close ups just keep revealing more!
 
Hi Blaire - yes, the flowers are from the garden (BV is the one with the green fingers)

here are some taken on the same day as the pears, they were a bit bedraggled, as we?d just had two days of wind and rain ? and then the sun came out :)

Hi Ivona

some of those are actually quite good !!

but in this instance, BV stands for Beloved

glad you like the picis :)


Oh !! Thank you .. I thought that B is for beloved.... I also thought that "V" has to be first letter of second word... like Wife said German way "Vife"... :eek:
