| Yep! The person wearing that big pendant (named "Vita et Pax") is the model. It was a huge event held in Mexico City, with all the big names in the Mexican Jewelry Industry. Carlos Cabral (the designer, not model) is here at the farm right now for the harvest.
Got some photos of the harvest...
Keep in mind that these pearls have yet to undergo processing: yes, washing with tap water & drying. The colors seem subdued thanks to the protein still on the pearls.
