    Default Help me pick one....

    I emailed Jeremy last week for a multi-coloured necklace. He responded swiftly as always and came back with 6 options. They are all gorgeous and I'm torn.

    Take a look and let me know which one you'll choose and why.



    I already have several strands of tahitians and they are attached below the PP pearls for your reference so I don't end up with too many similar strands.



    Thanks for your help everyone.

    I just posted on the other forum! I still say Hands down, #4!!! I love the size, the roundness, the colors, and the arrangement of the pearls. I really don't think it will look to much like one of your strands since it has more white/silvery pearls. I also like how it reminds me of an "UPSCALE" SS pearl necklace... a little like the "Pelosi" look. Just Gorgeous!!! If I had a second choice, it would be #3....but I worry that they may be too small. What are the specs? #3 may be a good choice if you want a smaller strand than the ones you currently have. Just my preferrence, but I do prefer the more rounder pearls........... Can't wait to see what you decide! What a fabulous collection you have....... You will have to post a new avatar...LOL!

    My first preference is #4 and then #3. Again, like PearlDreamer I like the rounder pearls. And I am no expert - so can't really say much about lustre, colour and such. It's a hard choice to make when they are all beautiful.

    My thoughts

    #3, #4 and #5 for overall (relative) size and shape...all have a beautiful mix of colors which would be unique compared to your other necklaces.

    Well, as long as you asked, I vote for #3, because I like the balance between the number of light and dark pearls the best and I feel it has some amazing overtones, even better than the other strands---------plus it will be fab with your coloring----!

    # 4, because more dark colored pearls, the larger size of the pearls, ans fewer of the long pointy ones.

    Choices, choices, choices..........I'm a fan of #1 and #5 for a few reasons that are based on my personal preference. I have always wanted a multicolored baroque Tahitian necklace but one with lots of color variation and with obviously ringed pearls. But any of them would be fabulous! Kate

    I like 3 and 4 for the balanced mix of colors. Great overtones and not too elongated shapes (elongated is not my personal preference). I would really love to have one of those

    #4 is my favorite. Love the size, shape and color of the strand. Of course they are all beautiful.

    They are all pretty. But I don't like #4 that much. Just too generic. I can understand some people like rounder pearls, thus #4. I picked #6 for color and luster. It caught my eyes at first sight!

    Edited: first 3 strands have too many lighter color pearls. # 4 is too generic, don't like the color distribution. #5 & 6 are very uniform regarding colors on both sides of necklaces. #6 wins hands down for colors and luster, especially 3 center pearls.

    Diadiva:
    I like 4 and 5.
    4 is a little rounder and 5 also has great uniformity. What are you looking for? Do you want those lovely long wicked teardrops or something more uniform?

    Diadiva,

    May have to switch to #6, because it has so many pearls that are multicolor. Just love that effect!
