Very elegant ring, and it pairs beautifully with the eternity band. I wanted to offer a solution for the spinning, which you may have already considered. I believe they are called "sizing bumps", and it's what I have on my engagement ring (which has a thinner band than yours, so it would really...

Cathy - I am so glad you connected with Mark during your time on Oahu. You picked out some gorgeous pearls! The pair in the double wahine setting look great against the yellow gold, and I love the pistachio pendant as much as everyone else - such an elegant setting. And I'm sure they all look...

Thanks, Newberry, for the information about the small PP enhancer. Those are some giant pearls you have! Hanaleimom - your pictures are so helpful. And I'm glad to know which enhancer you reach for most often. I don't have any large strands, but am thinking of a way to dress up my white...

GemGeek - I knew I'd be in trouble coming back to Hawaii, but I budgeted for it. ;) Pattye - I love that his settings are elegant, without excessive filigree or diamonds (although he does do fancier settings with diamonds, they have the same aesthetic), which allows the pearls to be the stars...

Pattye - Thank you for the advice on enhancer width (which makes perfect sense, but is something I hadn't thought of) and for including those photos. Lucky granddaughter indeed! Hanaleimom - I love your enhancer! So elegant, and now I know how it works (I was looking at stuller/rio grande last...

follow-up! follow-up! Aloha! Back in Honolulu for a bit and was happy to see Mark Kaneshiro on the list of vendors at the Islandwide Crafts and Food Expo that took place earlier this month. He had a case full of faceted Tahitians, which have been popular. They're not my style, but they do...
