I would recommend JNBgems on etsy. I have purchased a lot of pearls from them over the years, both individual and strand-length, and the pictures are accurate and I think the prices are fair. I also love CMW. Their prices are fair and the pictures and videos are accurate for everything I have...

So glad you go them and I can't wait to see the final strand! :love:

Gorgeous pearls, everyone, wow! I'm so happy to finally be able to catch up on all the posts this month :) Eolian, so good to see you and your fantastic Love strand! Kamoka strand I've been wearing daily for its autumn-y colors.

Thank you for these amazing pictures, Jeg.

I also recommend Kamoka! And Pearl Paradise - Jeremy wears really fantastic tahitian strands so I'm sure they could do something custom for you. You could also try to make your own! There are great tutorials on here.

Happy weekend! Jeg, WOW, do you have a picture of that fabulous bib-like necklace in action? I love those pretty hibiscus earrings, as well. BWeaves, your re-fashioned necklace is beautiful, especially with the crossover looks and the front clasp. I think you made the perfect choice for two...

I use acetone all the time - it will ruin whatever remains of the faux pearls though, and I would not use it on gold-plated posts (though I have used it with gold-filled without issue). I would definitely try Pattye's method first (I have also had success with that), and if not successful after...

Gorgeous pearls, everyone, wow!!! Collins Ts with Kamoka clasp.

Thank you so much, everyone! Shani, WOW your Wilma Flintstone strand is amazing. The purple is fantastic! Jeg, thank you and you're right - I purchased it 2 weeks ago and I have been wearing it almost every day since :) Love your dreamy metallics today with your soft pink sweater! Natural...

Gorgeous pearls this week, everyone, wow! Jewelmer strand from Cees.

BWeaves, WOW, that necklace is a work of art - and sooo pretty! Tiny Ts today - Necklace and bracelet made with Collins pearls and a repurposed Kamoka clasp, and Robert Wan studs (all pearls from Pearlescence).

Wow, those are really lovely pieces, Jeg!!! (and thank you for your kind words:giggle: ) Eolian, so good to see you, and your beautiful pearls - your new "remake strands" are gorgeous!

BWeaves, that is too cool about your new Kamoka pendant and the stellar associations :) It is a really lovely, unique pearl! Ombre WSS and tahitian necklace with pearls from PP, druzy and CMW. Tahitian studs from PP.

Happy Labor Day to those celebrating :) Everyone has been posting such lovely white akoyas lately (especially BWeaves!) that I finally just had to buy a strand. Wearing baroque akoyas from Druzydesign/Ehret design gallery...

I love your pretty (and very unique) Kojima PT necklace, BWeaves! Lary007, that is a lovely ripple set with fantastic colors. Lycat, your hanadama strand is absolutely gorgeous!!! Jeg, I'm drooling over your PP ombre south sea rope, wow. Kamoka Ts today.
