Something different today. Turquoise and natural white Hanadama akoya pearls from Pearl Paradise. Earrings from OceanRhyme. Vintage Native American turquoise necklaces from Goold's Dept. Store. The tubular necklace is made by cutting disks of turquoise, threading them together, and then rolling...

Men in PEARLS! Merrily's nephew looks amazing in her pearls. He's giving DEX (the cat) some competition.

New pearl necklaces from Kojima. Dyed freshwaters with various gemstone beads and jade dangles. Pendant is also freshwater, and I think dyed, from Kojima. Earrings are natural color, mismatched Tahitian dangles from Kamoka. These pearl earrings go with almost everything I own. They're...

Lovely ring! I love your colorful akoya tin-cup, JEG. I'm a little jealous that I can't do wire wrapping. I tried it, but I'm crap at it. I admire anyone who can do it. I love tin-cups, and I LOVE colorful, especially blue akoyas. Today, I'm wearing a classic 9mm Hanadama studs from PP...

Today was Mini-RUCKUS South East 2! Merrily and I had tea and scones and pearls at Tiger's house! And then I got home and these arrived from Kojima, and Greg did something he's never done before. He grabbed them and put them on. And then he refused to smile for the "blackmail photo" as...

They'll improve with a nice bath and a restringing.

Love the necklace and bracelet, JEG. The black pieces really set off the pearls. Green for me today. Souffle' pearl earrings stuffed with reclaimed emeralds and teeny tiny seed pearls by little h (Hisano Shepherd of Pearl Paradise). Endless necklace of emeralds, jade, multicolored...

Thanks again to Hisano for fixing my long Kojima Tahitian keshi tin-cup necklace that I broke. The first clasp I picked (small orbit) really did not work when turning this long tin-cup into a double strand necklace. So I asked Hisano to replace it with a square push clasp that is designed for...

High quality, cultured akoya pearls. Earrings are Hanadama studs from Pearl Paradise. Top necklace was bought by my Mom when I was born. The pearls themselves are probably 70 years old. The middle necklace was bought by my Mom in the 1980s or 90s, so they are around 30 to 40 years old. The...

I originally went with my 3 strand choker this morning, but then I remembered I had a doctor's appointment for my neck, and switched to my reborn pearls.

My "The house is on fire and I can only grab one thing" pearls. Mismatched black and white Tahitian studs, and my All-Josh 2019 Tahitian Harvest strand from Kamoka Pearl farm. These get worn a lot more since Pattye restrung them for me with a big hook clasp. I love the look of the little...

Pearl Dreams, those look fantastic. What clasp did you use as a replacement?

Love the new ring, JEG. Can't wait to see what you do with the loose pearls. The colors are lovely. Golden South Sea pearls, with white and golden South Sea keshi as dangles on the necklace. My new Tahitian and South Sea pearl earrings from OceanRhyme. Pom de la Mer pendant and necklaces...

I wore lots of white pearls yesterday to a funeral. It's OK. My aunt was pushing 100 and died in her sleep. Despite white pearls looking great on a little black dress, they are impossible to photograph. Today, it's jeans and T-shirt pearls. Jeans and T-shirt pearls. Mismatched blue baroque...

Interesting. I'm guessing the gel nucleus might smell better than the mud nucleus when it comes time to flush it out.
