What a great photo of you and Josh, Wendy! BTW, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WENDY!! And I'm so excited to receive your book as soon as it is released here in the US!

Absolutely fascinating! Just imagining what the price difference could be? Thank you so much for finding the comparison photos.

How could he possibly be any fluffier! I just love all the pet stories and photos here

The reason for my remark about PEPCA "fading away" was because 2016 seems to be the last entry on their website. Wouldn't it be fun to do a comparison??!! Hanadama vs Granpearl

Gosh, and Dear Anna, Cliclasp, our invisible clasp expert is way over in France!

Sea Urchin, You'll need to find someone who does this sort of clasp often. It requires precision every step of...

Gorgeous clasp and 14K, too! I'd be tempted to add a 3rd strand of multicolor tourmaline or spinel beads.

Oh, admiring the shapes of the drops! Of course, I'd wear it! Wonder how much it would weigh, Pearlie Sue?

About time you stopped by, GemGeek; we missed you!

Here's a detailed tutorial from Gempacked/Bella Findings Quite a few of us have purchased from this company, and even shopped in person when in LA for Ruckus.

How are your strands strung now? Will the end pearls have to be drilled out to accept the mystery clasp? I can understand why you'd like this clasp feature.

A million thank you's to you, CathyKeshi!

My phone's fault, the colors are slightly off of the strands; the purples are paler and the peaches not quite so golden. Interesting color shading on...

Well ~ the file upload manager isn't working, so if Cathy can come to my rescue, we're in business! I have resized the photos, so it isn't that.
Thank you so much, Cathy!
Here's a look at the...

Good Morning All and thank you so much for your offer to help, Cathy! I'm going to smash a few pearls to see what size the nucleus and send you a few photos soon!

Anne,
Absolutely agree with Wendy! Your pearls look like very fine quality! I don't know how fancy a clasp you will be looking for, but the sterling silver/rhodium plated Orbit clasp comes in a...

It seems like they just faded away after 2016 ~ very interesting. Wondering if the pearls are given a letter grade, or if Granpearl is roughly equivalent to Hanadama?

Yes, Ennui, I have no idea whether that arm of the business is more profitable than the crystals, probably could be, if the pieces are expensive enough.

Let me see, Pareltje; I'm suddenly having problems posting photos. I need to figure out how to reduce them, probably.

Oh my, jc, what a horrible experience you and your wife have been through. I can understand why your Mother's pearls mean so very much and how important it is to put this beautiful necklace together...

Starry Pearl, you might want to call the manufacturer of Hypo cement to ask that question. Here's a phone number from the box, 1-585-241-2370 Please let us know what you find out.

Will your wife enjoy wearing the pearls if they are restrung properly? If knotted between each pearl, the length would likely be close to 17 inches. As PD mentioned, it was common back then to...

What a great treasure she has! I hope she keeps and wears them. That is a treat to see, Wendy, thank you!

What an attractive mystery pearl necklace jc! Is it possible the back of the clasp is stamped "silver"? This is something we see often. Whatever is stamped there, isn't clear, of course.
The...

Oh my, this is gorgeous! I love the classic pearl with the edgy leather! Lilpearl, I agree, a VERY fun and versatile piece!

Good question, xtcnation,

Lots of gold in these pretty rings!

Was it disclosed that these are "cut" pearls? I have seen a few listings that do mention this procedure, offering "half-pearls". ...

A gorgeous strand after my own heart, with baroque, swirly nacre! Lovely earrings, too! Congratulations!

Pearl Dreams, if only I had a "dressing table" that bottle would be a must have! So many variations!
