My freshwater pearl drops from China!

Well I actually asked DH what he thought. He usually knows what I want to do with them before I do and he said I should "make one of those chain things", which means a tin cup. I do have some gold chain and findings so that could definitely work! I like the shorter lengths of chain in bewteen each pearl like that one, too.
 
Whatever you decide, it'll be beautiful, you chose a winner strand!!
 
I think, "one of those chain things" would be a great choice! lol! Gotta love his reply! I made a tin cup with circled pearls and added garnets and love the outcome.
 
Gorgeous pearls lary! Can't wait to see what you make.

JP - wow those pearls are so striking! Amazing colour.
 
How about something like this? View attachment 44507View attachment 44508
To me, those tight circles play nicely with the wire wraps on the loops.

JP I know it is probably just the lighting (and possibly my computer screen) but you look like you have one of those incredibly fashion forward lilac/lavender ombre hair highlights in this photo lol!
 
Lary - I'm so happy, you have found such a nice strand. I can't wait, what you make of it!
 
Thank you Katalin for posting your WenPearls drops. Based on your pictures I ordered a rope and a few pairs of metallic drops. For the price the rope is so fun and I can't wait to wear the metallics!

Haus973- I'm glad you found something what makes you happy! Your pearls look gorgeous, have fun with them!
 
Lary, you are an enabler. I was considering for a long time if I should order Tahitians for my project from Jac or Wen, or even from the PP sale. Now that I have seen yours, and I ordered a strand for me for my Gellner inspired rope project.

Guilty as charged! :D I eyed those strands, too. I know you'll put up pictures when you get them so we can all ogle!
 
Lovely. Are they the light green ones? Can't wait to see them on you. Wen must be wonderful why the sudden brisk sales for her tahitians. Haha
 
lary007- thanks! Can't stop staring at them-but now I'm half afraid if this is my entry into pearls- I'm gonna go off the deep end for sure! lol
 
Kalmen22 - yes it it a light green one, item number TH9-2A-10-11. Fingers crossed it turns out to be as nice as the pictures.
 
Most of my item numbers I've bought from are gone, but here are the two that are still available:

LR9-3A-3 (AAA metallic lavender pairs and peachy holden pairs)
LR9-4A-1 (AAAA metallic lavender golden pairs)
