I bought the bead board. It came almost destroyed but I used it anyway. I liked this design but not completely sure about the front central part. Maybe more rubies there? The bracelet I think i will do alternating 1 pearl one ruby with the exact same clap. What do you think? As I'm not the one...

I will see both in person very soon. I already have the ones in the pictures I sent with my first message. Here in the daylight against a white paper.

Yes. Here biwa is how they say freshwater. They look the same but the smaller oval one is more than double the price of the round one.

Thank you that's nice. I asked the vendor and he sent me two similar in stock and was very surprised with the picture. The round one 10mm like mine is supposed to be biwa. The 8mm oval is the southsea option. Don't they look exactly the same? Despite de shape obviously.

I will try to select stones and simulate designs and will send how its looking like and the options.

That is a beautiful necklace. But my rubies are not of the same quality and color. They are much more included and almost like a burgundy color.

To me your lapidolite look a lot like the rubies. Don't you agree? Almost the same color and luster. Even the inclusions.

I asked Gemini to do a simulation and that is the generated image. Not like I was imagining. Lepidolite are of what color? What if I just do 5 rubies and pearls in the front and then just one ruby every 3 or 4 pearls?

Hello, I want to make a necklace and a bracelet from these two rubies bracelet and that single akoya necklace. And also I want to include some gold mini roundelles in between. Do you think they match? What kind of pattern should I use, pearl ruby pearl, or maybe two pearls and one ruby and two...

I have browsed the jeweler website and they use freshwater, they call it biwa pearls, with gold and diamonds also. Do you need better pictures to be sure? I hope you are right because I think this would be my first south sea pearl.

What should I use to glue back together?

Around 10mm, maybe 9.7 to 10.2 something like that.

I have bought this pre-owned pendant in white gold with diamonds and pearl. It's freshwater or south sea? I don't think it is akoya because I have several of those and they are not like this one. The second photo it's next to what I think it is an akoya, the third it's next to what I think it is...

Sorry for taking so long to reply. Thank you. I have removed one pearl from one earring and that happened. What does that means? It wasn't a pearl or that is what how mabes look like without the back.

Thank you so much. I thought mabe were more yellowish. Mabe is better than just mother of pearl right?
