    Thanks Sarah, Katbran and Adeline I do like the earwires too and the price is pretty good. I like this high carat look too, though: http://www.ebay.com/itm/170704575787...84.m1423.l2649

    Choices, choices - such luxury to even have to choose... I've been spending quite a bit of money on art supplies resently and then there's saving up to go to the ruckus. i'll just have to wave my magic wand and conjure up a few extra $$.

    My Favorite Natural Pearl Tiara by Imperial



    The center pearl resting on the peak of the tiara was coined the “Star of the Celebes”. Celebes is an island in Indonesia that is more recently known as Sulawesi. That particular pearl weighs in at 56 grains. The 170 other pearls range in color from golden, rose, silver blue, Smokey gray and a distinct blue. The total diamond weight is unknown.

    Findings are silver for Akoya studs and for pendants and vermeil from Bella for Kasumi pearls earrings. Pendants have peridot in-between ...

    Thanks Caitlin for your opinion. I found it interesting.

    I wanted to show my gratitude to those who donated the pearls and I truly enjoyed making those earrings and pendants out of pearls donated by Sarah and Pattye. I also intend to wear them proudly.
    You are very perceptive. Those pearls do not match perfectly, but I find that they look nice hanging on two sides of head.
    In my opinion perfection is sometimes boring.....

    Ivona,

    You've been busy! Fabulous creations! Those drop earrings are to die for! And I love the Tahitians with the peridot. ALL the pearls were donated by lovely, generous Sarah, just the Oregon Sunstone was from me~

    LOL!
    I was not thinking that literally! But that ALL your pearls are a matchless collection, or any one piece is. Of course they don't match, they are pearls

    That's lovely, Ivona! I have done very little with mine yet... I've gifted a dear friend with some of the FW keshis, played with the large hole Tahitians for a fun bracelet and put the two huge Kasumis on temporary vermeil hooks. I do need to air my camera... I think the third Kasumi has the makings of a ring - but that won't happen from this side of the Atlantic. It'll have to wait until this summers visit to the US.

    Karin- definitely last Kasumi is for a ring - I have to find a right setting..Pink gold maybe.... Hmmmmmmm
    Caitlin- glad to hear that I misunderstood your remarque....I couldn't understand why you didn't like those pearls from Sarah... you don't have to like how I set them - this is very individual, but pearls themselves are lovely.......
    Pattye - Sunstone is waiting for me to get the right spacers and right idea....I have to be careful how I'll use it... I treasure the strand a lot !!
    Isabelle - high carat gold would be the best choice of the setting for those Kasumi... I have to start saving money....LoL...
