So I follow you on that trend

pear shaped Tahiti mixed with circled ones, very multicolored in green and purple...

+ a sea of Cortez whole strand ( I have only 2 ...)

If or when Abalones will be one day cultured, something with (not mabe)
Though I already have a big natural one...

Spaceneedle,

Sarah has some amazing Kasumi at www.kojimapearl.com. I have been looking and drooling.

Dana, I have to agree, the older I get, the larger the pearls! With the exception of some keshi in amazing colors.

so many pearls, so little time

A 8-9 or 9-10 gem quality lavender freshwater strand...

As for non freshwater pearls, I´d like an abalone pearl very much (Something for the future I think.) I just love the blue and green colours of them... Would also like at least one tahitian strand, baroque or round doesn´t really matter as long as it´s shiny and have nice, strong colour. Oh, and some golden SS pearls, with a really intense, golden colour...

Sheesh, I think I could actually help most of the people with their wish list, but for me, I want that elusive 24mm peacock colored naturally colored keshi-type pearl, I had one for a while, but it broke on me, leaving me sad, the problem is, that you can't just order such a thing from china, if they realize that the ones they sell me are actually worth 100 times+ what they sell them to me for, the price goes up, so I am stuck asking for kilo's of baroque naturally colored pearls and searching through them.

I got a perfectly med-dark pink pearl once in a parcel, Got $65 for it because the luster was so awesome. I got another Kilo and a half on order from S. China, anyone want to see the cool ones I get?
