| Okay, I had no idea if these would match their photo... 9mm Natural Copper Gold Pearl Necklace ![]() And mine... ![]() Interesting, and fortunately, pretty! 6-9mm Snow White pearl necklace - I wanted a graduated necklace, so I was pretty happy to find this. ![]() My photo... ![]() A great deal at $25.00 ![]()

| Lastly, I purchased a necklace and earrings that are incredible. 9mm no flaw snow white pearl necklace ![]() and the earrings, which are 9x13mm ![]() And here are my photos... ![]() ![]() ![]() The light makes them come out darker, but they are very white. I think they are all beautiful. What do you think? ![]()

| Very nice. I don't think I included comparison pics in mine. I was happy with the luster but didn't think the lavender rice pearls came out quite as saturated as I thought it'd be in the photos. For the price I can't complain. You seem to have done well!

| I asked them about the lavenders. For some reason, they always photograph darker for them when they are coiled, and lighter on the neckform. This one wasn't described as lavender and only had the coiled photo. I'm thinking that finding a dark lavender on any site is a challenge. ![]() Thanks. After waiting two months to get them (thanks to the Post Office), I'm relieved ![]()

| I was fooling around, trying to get a better image, but of course it's night and I don't want to get out my photoflood lights, so I took a couple with a dual fibre optic. I think if I used the photoflood and the fiber optic, it would be closer to their studio photo. ![]() The lavender now does look copper-gold... ![]() Something about the shadow pattern reminds me of the keshi bracelet photo. I'll have to go back and look at that. Not that I wasn't going to go back and drool over it again and again anyway! ![]()

| Blaire: Gorgeous pearls! One day I'll have to try them ... after I try John Wu ... after I try ... etc. etc. etc.! So many vendors! Anyway, the reason that pic reminds you of the Cook Island bracelet is the shadow streaks. Looks very "To Have or Have Not"ish. I can almost hear Bacall beckon, "You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve. Just put you're lips together, and blow!" Hmmmm, now I realize the Steve and Steve coincidence.

| Very very nice, Blaire! So fun to see the comparisons! I have not ordered from them recently, but as I recall in the past items were at least ok. Very slow shipping time, as I recall, sorry about your stuff at the p.o. Pattye so many pearls, so little time |

| GemGeek, I love your "8mm Copper Blue Gold very round pearl necklace"!! It's so pretty!! I tried looking for it on Pearllunar, but couldn't find it. Do you have the item number? I seem to be drawn to your choices (the small Freshadama set and now this). You have great taste.![]() |

I'm getting a kick out of how much you're enjoying the building of your pearl wardrobe. The copper blue gold necklace was an auction, but they usually repeat, so if you check once or twice a week, it will probably come up again. Here is the eBay number 280157528959 or click on the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=280157528959

| That's in keeping with my "stop me before I spend again" post, so I totally understand. You can live vicariously through photos for now and save up some cash for later. ![]()

| It's Pearllunar. I have had good luck with them, and so have a few others, so I think they are okay. They are a good outlet for fun pearls. ![]()
