    Default pendants

    These are the pendants settings I got the other day and had set with my pearls. I thought they were very cool, but perhaps they are more common than I think? The keishis are Kamoka, the rounds are from the ones I got out of the roaming Tahitians.
    #1 - The flower pendant is about 18mm and the pearl about 13mm

    #2 Pendant w/pearl length - 1", pearl is 9mm x 13mm

    #3 I love this little guy. Total pendant length about 16mm, pearl is about 8mmx 10mm. It looks like he is holding an eggplant.

    #4 - Chopsticks! I think this is my favorite. Total length with bail - 1.5" Pearl size about 12mm.

    As usual, colors are better in person - washed out here. Oh well!

    Remember - I had nothing to do with creating the actual pendant settings, just finding the right pearl for them!

    Nice work - the chopsticks are my favourite, too... good design there and nice balance of pearl size.

    I like the one with the star fish and octopuss, kind of fitting for the free form baroques

    I like them all, but the chopsticks are my favorite, as well. I like the contrast of the angular sticks with the round pearl. Very pretty!

    I like them all, especially the star fish and octopus. I did not see chopsticks. The first thing that came to my mind is a drum set. LOL.

    I like the eggplant pearl the most.

    They're all great, but that little octopus makes me happy. He's got personality!

    Nice job with the pendants!

    I think using animals for food is an ethical thing to do, but we've got to do it right. We've got to give those animals a decent life and we've got to give them a painless death. We owe the animal respect.

    When you see the chopsticks in 3D form, it really looks more like they're holding the pearl.

    Default Tahitian Pendant

    This beautiful pendant made by us 7 years ago has just
    come in for another valuation. We had forgotten
    how gorgeous it was. 18ct Yellow gold and platinum
    in the shape of a Nautalis shell with the most
    beautiful colour tahitian pearl - sort of obergine with a redish
    corona around it. The photo does not do the pearl justice.
    Hope you enjoy design it is really great, chunky and solid.[ATTACH]Name:  Nautilis shell f 1.jpg

    There is hardly any wear and tear for a 7yo pendant, so the owner must have looked after it well. Very nice design
