    Default My Kamoka Pearl Neckace

    I am finally posting photos of my amazing Kamoka Pearl Necklace. I love all the colors of the pearls, so I had to get a multicolor necklace. I was fortunate to be in Oakland for my Optometry reunion and Sarah (Kojima Pearl) let me pick some pearls. I wear this necklace nearly every day! At some point I want to pick up a few larger pearls to integrate into the front of the necklace. Pearls are 10.0 - 10.85 mm.

    Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for not making us beg for a neck shot! Terrific on you! Glad to hear you are wearing it all the time!

    Just realized I need some Tahitian earrings!

    Gorgeous! You know, of course, that Josh recites poetry to his oysters to get them to produce such magnificent colors...

    Really pretty! I am so glad the Kamoka/Kojima connection is such a good choice for buying Tahitians!

    Sheri, you've provoked a lyrical parlay.
    Katkashmir your pearls do look great I must say.
    (Truth is poetry's not on my list of skills.)
    It's fun though, even gives me the chills
    Better call it quits now before I scare y'all away!

    OK, one more (Sheri this is your fault)

    There once were some pearls from Kamoka.
    Katkashmir drinks tea but prefers mocha.
    Sarah at Kojima is a master pearl stringer,
    I'm not good, sure to stab my finger.
    Oh no! What will rhyme except polka?

    Default Your kamoka necklace

    I'd wear those every day too. Stunning- and I especially compliment you on the length, they look lavish this way.

    OK, I'll confess...I lied.

    Josh, just stick to your usual habit of kissing the oysters that produce nice pearls. As you've seen, that gets much better results than threatening they will become sashimi.

    Nerida and Sheri those are some weak retorts.
    Can you not do better being the clever sorts?
