I love this thread, and all of the beautiful clasps.
I would gladly follow you around picking up your discards...
Douglas, do you happen to have a photo to share? I am fascinated by this process...
Theft is such an horrible thing. But thankfully, you and your family were not physically harmed!
Looking good!
Jeg, I love your fossilized corals...I've been working on a pair of earrings using elongated, slightly fan shaped stones. I have a pair of ovals I'm going to set next! I never would...
I've heard the term "freshwater akoya" floating around for the past couple of years. I think it is a way some sellers have been marketing their freshwater higher quality pearls. There is no such...
Red, your Tahitians are wonderful...and a little birdie told me that Wendy may have recently gotten her hands on some beauties from Robert Wan...just in case any one is looking.
StarryPearl, Eliko is a company that works with trade members only. They do not sell directly to consumers.
Oh I love seeing this pearl in action!!
Eliko is the US supplier (trade only) for these wonderful pearls. They are each so unique and little works of art.
Wendy, such a wonderful thread! I am so impressed that you picked up on this. And Pattye, I would know nothing about jewelry shopping via TV. One of the fun things to do during Tucson: watching the...
Loving all the posts!! Gorgeous pearls everyone!
And I agree, a very remarkable young woman. She is wearing a head band, not a tiara fyi. The headband she wore at the Inauguration was by Prada, not sure which designer made this one...but I'm sure...
A few of the vendors are doing these virtual presentations. While I love the idea of working with Columbia Gem House this way (I may have recently purchased a small hoard of Sea of Cortez mabes)...
Yes, I saw that the Vegas shows are now scheduled for August.
I am so sad that Tucson isn't happening this year....of course that makes complete and perfect sense, but I will miss seeing my pearly friends. While many of the vendors have been offering virtual...
Charlotta I always love seeing your beautiful collections reworked and reimagined!
I like the rose thread with the jasper...but you could also try to pick up on the darker grey shades to make the pinks pop. I love jasper...I think its an under appreciated stone.
Well it looks like we are finally getting a decent winter storm here on the east coast! It's been a few years for us here down the shore. Stay safe and be warm, and I will dream of Tucson 2022 while...
Such beautiful pearls everyone! Please stay safe.
Since we're on the subject, I came across this clamp which looks like a brilliant device to ensure proper positioning. 76120
I think an old fashioned wooden clothes pin with a V cut out of it might...
As always, this thread is a refreshing respite.
Douglas, congrats on your new role!
And I couldn't agree more with your words.
In my house, that bag would be filled in about 30 seconds. I'm entering the de-sanding phase of summer (those last days before fall when I discover the MOUNDS of sand about the house!)
Pearly friends really truly are the very best friends. That sapphire necklace with the baby Edisons is so pretty, so dare I say, whimsical. Well done Jeg!
Absolutely fabulous! I love the versatility of an earring jacket.
