LOL. Just for you Valeria since I am a fan of yours and you have helped me out other places.

So... you have just turned 14 !!?
Great idea - pairing pearl size and years. Only mine would start to look like a ping-pong ball by now!

Yes, we just had our 14th. I should have said wedding anniversary. Unfortunately my black opal seems to have been lost by Australia Post. The 13 mm was a happy coincidence that added a sentimental feeling to that pearl.
Here are some pics of my haul last year.
Do the Albert's Motu picnic and shark and ray tour!
Okay back to digging out the pearl photos....
Okay here we go.... The baroque is from Anne Simmone in Moorea. It has absolutely the most amazing lustre. This was my first purchase. It was only a few hundred. I have never seen anything like the lustre and tried to compare every other pearl I looked at to it. The earrings are from Ron's. I think they were about a thousand. He was awesome. He will send a car for you. The 13mm and the three other loose ones are from the Pearl Markets in Papette.
I have dug out the details of the shops I purchased from but am not sure I am allowed to post them. At the pearl markets ask for Thierry. He is really sweet and will go out of his way to help you be sure you get what you are looking for if at all possible.
