flush cutters are great for the knots , I drill mine out if they are stuck but the little hook idea is a good one. I also use a glue dissolver for any glue issues and if that isn't enough I use boiling water .
Absolutely lovely !!! Great choice ! One of my favourite pandant styles from Paspaley.
Every time I go to Sydney I stop in there to do my pearl shopping from the basement Trade wholesale area and I cannot pass by the cases on the ground floor. The most astonishing pieces ... even the few...
I thought it was great that the GIA is offering certificates and it's nice to know that they are at the same or higher standard that the PSL .
I know what you mean Pearl Dreams about the various classifications Aurora etc... it seems like every time I look at IG there's yet another certificate...
jet .. That smooth Kusimi and those Keshi...fabulous ! I've not seen that type of Keshi before . Gorgeous colours
BWeaves - Those PP earrings are stunning - that green with the gold ... and that design .... GIMME !! And Sarah's little GSS have such great colour - nice combo with the blue !
