You mention pounds, so where are you located?

Since it's an 'unexpected' purchase I bet there's a story! Does it involve Late Nights on Ebay ???

Hi, and welcome! Sorry for the delay in responding. Typically, this question has a long and a short answer. If you use the search bar at the top you'll see the different ways this has been...

Oo, oo, oo! did we eliminate Plush Pearls?

Mmmmmmolten..... hmmm.

Yeah, I have to vote "no" on viscous. Too close to vicious. Picture snarling, snapping pearl-dogs (somehow these pearl-dogs are snarling "Yarrrrr")... Yummy food analogies are more fun (says I,...

Icing pearls? Frosting pearls? Fondue pearls?

Thank you for the photos, especially the WOW factor for the Tahitian earrings closeup! Lovely, lovely Pretties.

Judi, did you ever post under judimcce, or another name? I can't find the thread you started about your buying trip to the Vietnamese pearl farm, or anywhere, and I'm lost.

Hi Judi, I loved your posts about your trip, and buying Vietnamese pearls, and your hostesses' reaction to your choice of yellow gold instead of white gold for the clasp! Too funny, everyone should...

Super photo!

And make your own rules for wearing them! After all, those are pearls you're playing with, not strings of army boots or such. What pleases your eyes will look lovely...

Yeah, and it's always kind of fun to gamble with you guys :-D and get commentary from the peanut gallery!

I was re-reading this thread, and for anyone who hasn't read from the first post...

Welcome, Ladies! I like button pearls for earrings a lot, for all the reasons Pearl Dreams lists. I hope you enjoy them.

I think of Freshadamas as a luxury item. I think Luxury is something you don't need, of high quality, that enters the realm of pleasure.

What happens when the criteria changes? I didn't need...

Hello, peoples! Did anybody here win the Tahitian?

For the Chinese, endless thank-yous, because however rare and precious natural pearls are, dead little squirmy things inside of a pearl - just Gross. A bit of mantle tissue, happy healthy...

Thank you, PearlDreams, for wishing all of us Luck! In the broadest sense, we're already more than lucky since most of us have clean water and a roof, and hopefully an infrastructure...

Has anyone heard from PwP? When have folks been notified before, right at 12:01 EST?

You gave plenty of warning - and if you snooze, you lose. I'm glad it's yours!

Thank you again Wendy! Your explanation was wonderful and clear. I was contemplating a warming-up soldering iron. I had also considered boiling water. Of course there's much to think and plan...

No doubt! I guess sneaking up on it is a no-go...

Thanks Wendy. So warming wouldn't have made any difference.

Ah, yes, I've lost a few headpins. I'm so new at bending wire that sometimes I think all I have to do is look at it funny and it self-destructs. But that could be me...(ya think?)

Lots of wire-y...

Scratching is frustrating, but the good news is probably no one else will ever know it exists. Enjoy!

Hi Maia, I think they look yummy, and I have a question for you. Can you swish a soft brush or something inside the top drill hole? to see if the dark specs are dirt, and are easy to dislodge, or...
