Existing ? 9.5-10.5mm CFWP, about 17.5in long
Quite spotted, however, a bargain for what I paid for the strand

What I wore on my Wedding Day (only time I wore them), button CFWP, I made the links myself using silver, and one can see the silver is discolouring 
I shall use some of the pearls and make a charm bracelet, using White Gold

My 7-7.5mm Akoyas, about 18in long, not the original clasp as I swapped all the clasps around recently
This is the strand I shall pair up with my black Akoyas to make a double strand

A CFWP rope that I made using 2 strands of pearls bought for 55 USD on eBay, not bad for their size, which is about 10-10.5mm

All the Whites together
Starting from the back:
My ex-Wedding CFWP pearls
Cheapo CFWP rope
New Gem Fresh Line from TOP
? 9.5-10.5mm CFWP that I already have
My Akoya
The quality of the Gem grade CFWP is staggering when compared with what I already have. So much cleaner and shinnier, definitely worth every penny

The Pendants
2 of these are fakes, can you spot them?
They were bought for 34 Canadian Dollars each
I like their pendant designs, and may get real ones made one day

The fake earrings
And I would like to have real ones made one day
The white ones in the front are sitting in earring jackets
That's it for now, more to come as and when they arrive

They sound wonderful-- wish I could see the photos!
I wonder if we'd be able to see them if you were to create an album? (see link on the left of your profile page)

Whoa, DK!!
That is some collection! Thanks for the great photos, and must compliment you on your proficient knotting skills! And excellent taste in pearls! The gem quality strands are sooooo outstanding!
As for the faux pearl pendants, my guess is the two larger very round ones in front?
