"Souffle' Pearls"

[GemGeek]

Here are the natural light photos I promised. I purchased these with the intent to sell, after I took photos for an article and to add to my presentation. I didn't even get out of the convention center before someone "reserved" three of them. I'm keeping the green teardrop and maybe one or two others.




They aren't perfect, but they are faboo. I'm not planning on drilling them. A nice setting with gold claws should look awesome...

WOW - the goldypeachygreen amazingness of those steals my heart.

Rare and undeniably desirable colors there! Great choices, Blaire! Looking forward to seeing the finished pieces!!

Ooooo!!! Soooo pretty!!! And I wanna add - tough choice between these and the Hanadamas. I guess different pearls for different occasions.

Blaire,
What is the size of those beauties?

 

[BeadersSecret]

Blaire, those are glorious I could see one as a bug, a beetle to be precise.

Those are incredible. Great photos. Can't wait to see what you do with them!

 

[mrsz]

Wow those are beautiful and metallic! Can't wait to see them set (but don't envy the driller at all).

I would put them in an antique dish and keep them where I can see them...too pretty!

Are those extreme beauties FWCP ?

 

[claudenancy]

Wow! I have visions of these in all types of clear crystal--bowls, goblets, etc, arranged as a centerpiece--with exotic flowers interspersed-- for a fantasy buffet.

Are those extreme beauties FWCP ?

Yes they are! Although, I would use the term FRESHwater loosely!
