OMG, CTD, that's the first time I've ever snagged a pearl out from someone else. Usually I dither way too long, and then it's gone. I'm so sorry. OK, I'm not sorry, but you know what I mean. Tevai told me they're called switched symmetry pearls! They’re very rare. Definitely one in...

More PT (pearl therapy) from Kamoka. This isn't the weirdest pearl I've seen come out of the Kamoka pearl farm, but it screamed MINE. My willpower lasted a whole 2 hours before I bought it. It looks like a little planet with its own moon. My husband has a PhD in Astronomy, and years ago he...

I have every version of Renee's Pearl Buying Guides.

Is she doesn't care about brand, skip the Mikimoto. Order the natural white Hanadamas and the AAA akoyas from PP and let her try them on next to her skin. Let her decide which she prefers and return one or both strands for a full refund. They have free shipping both ways, and a generous...

Thank you! I just preordered a copy, too. Just wave a book in front of my face and I'll buy it. If it's about pearls or weaving, so much the better!

Two Tahitian keshi tin-cups from Kojima. I love the way these two necklaces nest. Mismatched baroque Tahitian earrings from Kamoka. They go with everything! Blue baroque akoya ring from Takahashi. Pearls always look better next to bare skin.

Just hanging out at home with pearls. My new Pearl Therapy rope from Kojima with freshwater pearls, jade, sapphires, emeralds, and a yellow tourmaline. Little h earrings with a souffle' pearl stuffed with emeralds and tiny pearls.

They are imitation pearls.

I agree with Pearl Dreams.

Visiting Dad today wearing my new golden SS keshi wire-wrapped necklace. Green tourmaline necklace and earrings.

JEG: Wow! Love the redo and the mixed sized choker! Pearls and gem beads are my current favorite combos! Pearl Maven: Welcome!

I've come to really love bubble style strands rather than perfectly matched or graduated ones.

SS never occured to me, because I've never seen SS that looked like that. My mom had some circled SS pearls, but the quality wasn't that great. I'd love to see more examples, too.

They look like circled freshwater pearls from China. They are 100% pearl nacre. They are not worth very much, but they are very pretty. Enjoy wearing them.

WOW, I've never seen a case like that one, either. Very cool looking.
