Here is my latest acquisition - a Care Ehret South Sea Keshi pendant. I'm sure she won't mind if I post her photo until I can take my own.

Is it just me, or is this honestly irresistible?

Knowing how we are here you didn't really expect us to help stop you spending! Gorgeous pendant. Love the high carat gold as usual. All I can say is, remember to post pics when you get them.

I forgot that I should have posted this under "show us your pearls", so If someone wants to move it, I'm fine with that.

Raisondetre: Something like preaching to the choir, I guess!

It is gorgeous! The keshis are really lustrous and go well with the high carat gold. Care does beautiful work - you're really fortunate to have it, so I won't convince you not to spend more.

John, I'm afraid we are co-enablers as far as that goes!

Now that I have the pendant, I might have to get earrings to go-with. Where did that thought come from? Oh No! Buah hah ha!!!

That high carat gold makes it look like Bahraini pearl jewelry. Talk about classic!

That would encourage me to buy a keshi strand. Now you're adding to my buying impulses. Of couse, I can't afford a keshi strand, so I'm probably safe.

Are you?

The 'reborn' freshwater pearls sort of match the shape too.

... the gold lace around the pearls in your pendant looks fantastic!

Of course, I could do a freshwater strand. I'll have to keep my eye out for something when I go to Tucson.
