Vietnamese blue akoya

Thanks for everyone's input. I still can't decide which is so unlike me. I think I might just let Hisano take matters into her hands and be surprised when I open the box :)

Well, if it were me...I wouldn't let go of any of those pearls....but I am somewhat of a pearl hoarder. I would absolutely leave it to Hisano, and have her make something else with the extras. That way you can always change to a 4 strand later.
 
I think the 3-strand looks better, but I don't think you can go wrong either way.
 
I think the 3 strand is more proportionate to the peanut. The 4 maybe looks a little like you decided to put an enhancer on a stand-alone strand, whereas to my eye the three looks like it is a designed set. But I suspect that the proportions are hard to see in a picture and might look very different in real life on your neck.
 
Hisano sent me a couple more pictures. In the previous pictures there were two dark blue and two lighter blue strands. Now be still my heart all dark blue. The Sea of Cortez peanut finally has the perfect setting.

The choice of bale and clasp will be Hisano's. It will be a wonderful surprise :D

Absolutely sensational. You must be over the moon!!!
 
It looks like two strands are smaller and more baroque than the other two. It adds visual interest while maintaining the colorful dark, intense blue theme. Simply gorgeous, and this will be stunning on you.
 
Now that is just glorious ... and you will look sensational ... and surprises yet to come ... just wonderful!
 
Thank you lady's. Over the moon is an understatement. Katbran come to the ruckus this summer and you can see and even try it on if you like :)
 
Swoon then swoon some more! They are beautiful and I'm very glad I don't have to chose!
Look forward to the neck shots!
