    I think they are really unique and beautiful. The site has all the signs of a good online business. I just can't remember if we actually "know" the owners, but they guarantee the necklace and your satisfaction and they are BBB is listed. If someone from there is not a member here, perhaps they should be.

    In any case I wouldn't be afraid to buy it. I absolutely love the colors and circles on that piece. I also like the rest of the site, especially the comment on a ring that "silver is the new gold". I say go for it and send it back if you don't like it.

    I have met with the owner of this site on a couple of projects. He does not have a showroom and is internet based but he is in my town. I have bought a necklace and had him add pearls and restring one for me. I was very please with his attention to detail and pearls. We have met on several occasions. Jose is a very nice man. I have encouraged him to participate here on PG and I hope he will in the future.

    Some nice pearls there, and good designs too. I thought the prices pretty good too. With a personal introduction, it all looks good

    Since I left this thread, i can't get those pearls out of my mind. It is a good thing I can't afford them, or I might just sneak them away from you! Just joking; I would never to that to another member, but I would wish........ So if you want them, you'd better get them.

    Ijust love all those multicolored stripes on those pearls, I saved a copy of the photo. If you have the dough and like them, then get them! And show us a shot of you wearing them.

    I recently bought a strand of multi-colored tahitian pearls from them - - similar to the one in the link posted. It was gift for my sister. The strand was exactly as described. In fact it looked better since the pearls had a deeper luster than what was captured in the photograph. Jose was most helpful. Excellent customer service.

    I was silly to have put photo of these pearls on here as someone beat me to it, the reason why because we were having trouble in getting them here due to customs régulations , then we cracked it the lady in the online shop was just about to sell them to me, and she said, i am really sorry but they have just been sold, i said i wanted them before but for some reason did not take of Line! Well never mind they had some new ones come in even more pretty at a good price, so i said take these of line, as i want them, the only thing now is ive had to send them to m'y uk adresse. Because for NeXT year im in amozon jungle nô way to get them to me here! Can not wait to wear them!!

    Well, I am really disappointed it was not you. But I know that when I felt so strongly for those pearls, temptation arose. That is why I posted you to get them. Not everyone has my strength of character and/or will power. (JOKE!!!) I was slapping my own hands away from the keyboard and I don't even have the cash AND they had it on BillMeLater so I could buy it anyway. It was a heroic fight and I won, but now I wish I had got them- At least I might have passed them on to you!

    I actually went back yesterday, just to peek and they were gone! Next time, just use a photo and do not give the buying info out, except by PM to someone who will check out the site for you. I am sure it was not a poster, but lots of people read this forum!

    That is like the abalone pearl i lost on ebay by not putting in my top bid the first time. I was busy upping the ante when time ran out and the other person got it for about $100. It was worth at least $1000, not counting the antique setting etc. I still regret this one!!!!

    Caitlin,

    Here are pictures of a similar strand I bought from Tahitianpearl.biz. The strand is a gift to my sister. I took a few shots of it. Very nice multi-colored rings with fantastic luster.
