A kind hearted relative just brought in a stack of catalogues she thought I might be interested in... including Kailis & Paspaley. So Im sitting here drooling, and only you guys here know how much I appreciate her kind thought.
Thank you for being[LIST][*]passionate about pearls[*]empathetic enough to read this
and here!
Happy festive season to all & a Pearly New Year.

I have a Paspaley catalog that I treasure, so I know what you mean -- not to mention a certain issue of Australian Vogue!

Purlgirl,

How fortunate! That's something I wouldn't mind finding under the tree--not even the jewelry, but just the catalog!

Ah yes, the Vogue mag is on my coffee table, along with the current Paspaley catalogue, plus a couple of very old ones Mikeyy brought me on one of his trips.. they are definitely worth drooling over!

Ahhh purlgurl,
what incredible eye candy to drool over and dream about
Although not solely pearls, the jewellery catalogues of auction houses such as Christies, Sotheby's, Phillips etc. show many eye-popping pearl pieces. The catalogues with the words Magnificent/Important/Significant in the title are the ones to go for. I have a stack I bought on ebay. Cheap thrills!!!!!!

Regards from Kerry.

I have several Sotheby's catalogs that I often pull out and drool at all the gorgeous pearls. I was just looking at a few of them the other day to help with my new pearl addiction. They are great coffee table books!!

I have just put a few images up on my website for those who don't have a Paspaley catalogue. Just amazingly beautiful to work with.

Tim, those are fabulous photos. One thing I've always wondered is how you get the floating in air effect. What's holding up the pieces? A mystery!
