Wow! Just... WOW!!! Those pearls are amazing in all ways, Andrew! Thank you for posting. I hope Patteye will be able to share photos once these beauties are strung!

That's so fun to see the beginning and continuing progress of the pearl hunt in Hong Kong! It's looks like it was a treasure hunt. :D

Wow! This turned out so beautifully, Charlotta! It's an ombre rainbow strand! All your studs will go with it, which is a bonus. :cool:

What fun! Thank you for sharing! The GSS studs you purchased are right in my favourite zone for studs. Gorgeous!

More Tahitian beauty! Love the different bands on the enhancer from Pearl Society. They look almost rainbow-ish in the one photo. So pretty and versatile!

Hah! I completely agree, Charlotta! I could cheerfully "branch out" to a beautiful dark blue strand similar to yours! :rolleyes: Well, I tried, but to no avail, this year. Perhaps next year?!

There were/are some gorgeous pieces in this offering! I tend to prefer to deliberate and think about what I would love and wear, rather than to feel pressured by a time-limit (and a sense of "competition" that others might beat me to it) to be impulsive and buy-right-now!!! LOL! That said, I...

LOL! I was thinking the exact same thing, Andrew! I agree! There could definitely be cross-pollination in this thread—what could possibly be more wonderful than diamonds and pearls?! Not necessarily in that order. Haha.

Katbran, I love using different coloured threads to subtly compliment the various pearls. The next time I refresh the Robert Wan strand I may use teal, although the navy is such a excellent colour overall, for the strand. Waps, even though I have more than enough blue pearls, my eye is always...

Charlotta, you do take wonderful pearl photos! And wonderful cat-let photos, too. ;) I always love to see them. eolianpearls, thank you, and yes!, Cees' strand of Robert Wan pearls are truly glorious. Thank you, BWeaves and 2thdktr!

Love the variety you can wear with these rings/loops. The copper greens are so gorgeous!

Lovely Tahitian colours, 86C! Charlotta, that's quite a process to making a tassle with that cap! Kudos for an excellent job and description!

Haha! I quickly opened this thread thinking that your strand had arrived. LOL! :rolleyes:

So much beauty! I really like the tassel, it turned out so well! And the wave strands are especially gorgeous, too. It's wonderful to see the pearls re-purposed.

Love this two-tone-looking pendant! Is it both silver and gold? Or is it my monitor? Either way, it's very pretty on you!
