Today I picked up my Tahitian strand I bought with Newberry and Kay.
I had an inexpensive double strand of dull vintage akoyas I bought for the mobe pearl clasp. PP worked the clasp into the new strand which I plan to wear front and back. Then I had 4 pearls removed to make a 17" strand which falls at a better spot on me, and will probably make into earrings. Originally I wanted a baby Tahitian rope, but couldn't resist this lovely 9-11mm blue strand.
Here it is worn with a mixed strand, a pastel rope from Jacques...and my 3 Kamoka figs!
