  • Octo-Artist: Sheri Jurnecka!

    Sheri Jurnecka was a big hit in Tucson this year as she was stopped repeatedly by admirers of her fantastical and enormous octopus-pearl creations. And now she has spawned a litter of little creatures, seen below along with two "adults" in different metals.

    • New Bi-Monthly Column: The Sustainability Corner
      by CortezPearls
      Hello dear Pearl-Guide.com Forum Members: With spring comes renewed energies and pulses, the recent system upgrade also allows me to start adding up content that we believe is necessary to keep the forum growing and renewed, making it the #1 Source for Pearl information on the World-Wide-Web for years to come. I had this idea of a column years ago, when I still published "The Sea of Cortez Peal Blog", which went "black" after a massive Russian hacker attack (the importance of updating your system...

    • Indonesian South Sea Keshi on a Lazy Sunday
      by GemGeek
      Carolyn Ehret operates Ehret Design Gallery on eBay, a favorite of our members, and myself! If you find yourself having to wait for a car repair or a delayed appointment, I can practically guarantee that the time will fly by while you look at the fun items on her site. Of course, looking can be dangerous to your pocketbook. This is also a great place to find a few gems to add to a necklace or earrings--or just to source beautiful and unusual pearls. I had Carolyn add gold spacer beads and finding...

    • Pearls Make Me Feel Beautiful
      by GemGeek
      Looking through photos from this summer, I noticed that all the photos where I am wearing pearls are the ones where I am joyous and glowing. Could there be a transfer of radiance from the pearls to the wearer? Can pearls fill the soul with visible happiness? I'm not sure, but I love my self-purchase of pearls from little h beyond measure.

      Happy Blaire, followed by closeups of the pearls...

    • Pink Pearl Fantasy - Karen Suen
      by GemGeek
      Karen Suen's eye for color will steal your heart. You will need to visit the collection on her website to see the finest use of clam pearl, conch pearl, opals and diamonds in a ring that I have ever seen. Searching through the jewelry images was a review of some of the finest gemstones in the world, including an enormous padparadscha sapphire and dazzling jade. I found out about Karen Suen at the Couture Show Awards competition. Although the lighting made photo opportunities difficult this year, ...
