What pearly goodness are you waiting for in the mail?

I'm waiting for these beauties!





My first full strand of a Tahitian necklace and it shall be in my hands this week!!!

[GemGeek]

Wow! You'll love the pearllunar ones, for sure. I've been very happy with all their earrings. And the Tahitians look smashing - very colorful. I can't wait to see your own photos. They're Faboo!

[jiazzi]

And I just saw your bowling ball sized Tahitian!!! AMAZING!!! I can't WAIT to see pics of that!

[GemGeek]

It will be strung in the center with two strands of faceted black spinels coming out of it. <sigh> Wish I weren't so busy or I'd finish it tonight.

Wow, very lovely choices, both of you! I LOVE spinels! And Tahitians! And Freshies! Hummm, guess there's not much in the way of gems and pearls I don't love!

I am waiting for these!

Annie,
All very terrific, those bead-nuked baroques, huge!

Yesterday I finally ordered 2 strands of the PP Tahitians, obviously I am not a good speed shopper like the rest of you--sorry, no photos as yet. I decided on the button shape, intending to make some tin cups. Opted for free shipping, so they won't be here until after Mom's day. Natalie kindly helped me decide between 10 or so different strands, the lustre is great and interesting colors, lots of peacock, so I will post photos later.

Was going to add--if anyone is not already on the mailing list for the various vendor websites, now is a great time to sign up!

These should be arriving tomorrow, I'm very excited, I hope they match some pearl bracelets I've already made. Will post own photos of pearls when they arrive, weather permitting (it's been raining forever now...)

Pattye, what sites would you recommend we sign up on? I know I'm on PP and Pearl Outlet but am not sure what other sites PG'ers recommend?

Thanks!

I'm waiting for the PP AAA graduated Akoya special (hope this image comes through). I attended a Gellner trunk show in my town over the weekend which I had really been looking forward to. There were pretty things there, but the prices were staggering. (Tahitian strands in the $20,000 range). Had my eye on the PP necklace all along, and after I got home from the show I ordered it. I think the size/graduation of the pearls is just right.

Hi Julie,

Here's a few others that allow you to request email notice of specials, etc-- Pearls of Joy, Pure Pearls, Museum Way Pearls--I'm sure there are others--anytime you see website info following a post you might want to check it out. (I don't have that option at Etsy.) I apologize to those I can't think of right off--I will come back and add any I find later.
