A misnomer?

Hi Joyful One (so appropriately named, by the way! ),
Your reaction was similar to mine when I received my freshadama strands. (I have some in 8-9 mm and another in 10-11 mm). Please post your jewelers reaction. That should be fun! Also, what size did you end up with?

I got the 9/10mm necklace in a sixteen inch. I am thinking about the 10/11 now. What did you think about yours? I got the white strand but I am really thinking about the purple in a next size larger. And you best believe I am going to tell y'all what the jewelers think then I take this in!

My 10/11 mm white strand is stunning. My 8-9's are also in white and are also beautiful. That is the strand I compared to other jewelry store strands. (It is also the strand I took into my own independent appraiser and posted about in another thread. In a nutshell, he thought they were great.) However, there is something about the 10-11 mm. They're just bigger and just that much more beautiful. Can't say enough about them.

Regarding the lavender, I have purchased and returned a couple of different lavender strands, both AAA. Not because they weren't lovely but because I can't seem to decide if I like them with my very fair skin and very dark hair. (Think Italian.) I now have a lavender freshadama strand and am still deciding if its a keeper. So,think about your skin coloring and call and talk to Mia or Anna or Kirsten. There are "different" lavenders and they might be able to make some suggestions regarding which might be best for you.

Hi Youngster
I would really like to see which color you end up with-
Hi Joyful
Looks like you have a real heirloom strand and one you can wear a lot.

I am so glad to see the enthusiasm -and joy!- that a great string of pearls gives its wearer and I sure wish I could see pictures!

Hi Caitlin,
I'm definitely keeping the white strands but just trying to determine if I like this latest lavender strand, that has some bronze in it. If I can snap some photos this weekend, I'll try to post some.

I do not mind answering this for Stephen so I get the C&D instead of him

Thank you for answering for me.. I don't really have anything to add to that response except that there are multiple sources for the information in my report - the link that was posted is just a good example since they are the ones that product the tags.

Joyful One - It is a shame that you were cut off when you asked if the information was true or false. Personally I would have taken that as the answer
