The farm had 25,000 mabe this year, get yours while they are still in stock...

Marvels' nature and so nice jewels... I wonder how thick is nacre of these mabe?

**lilliefuzzysocks** · 03-12-2018, 06:01 PM

Eric, Douglas may know what they are generally.

Well done assembling, Lilliefuzzysocks! This beautiful rainbow effect seems specific of mabe, pearls themself don't combine so much tones?

Thank you, Pattye! I did make the headpins; I used 22k for those and planished the ball ends for a little flash, but kept them a bit on the thick side so they'd be more substantial in appearance (plus I think if I had planished them all the way flat, they would have competed with the pearls too much).

Lilliefuzzysocks - that set Sarah made you is just so special, I especially love the earrings, would love to see ear shots of those!

OMG theres too many gorgeous items !! Jeg - beautiful !! Love the setting!!
MSC - wow you have quite a collection of SoC going !! Love your remake of the earrings !! Another thing about the headpins..slightly different shape.. I take the wire and flatten and spread the end a bit for a longer flat end. Not something for tiny I suppose but a good way to deal with pearls that are drilled through for a point of different in the design.
LFS - marvellous colour on that little Keshi !! And those MABE!!! Love what Sarah did with them !!
And Pareltje- That bracelet is stunning !!! Sorry I missed it before..the posts have come so quickly on this thread lol

**CathyKeshi** · 03-13-2018, 02:05 AM

I love every single one of these posts and SOC pieces ... MSC, those earrings! The headpin ends are so charming

Lillefuzzysocks, what a delight to see your stunning SOC again; and that new Sheri Jernecka pendant is beyond belief ... the detail on the back of the shell is astonishing! Thanks for sharing, everyone
