    Real or Fake? What did I buy?

    I second this. Plus you will often find that you are able to get better tension the longer you are learning to do so. Some of my early projects you can see in uneven spacing. As they are for me it doesn’t bother me, but as this strand is so long you might end up with a much longer strand than...

    I have bought from sea beauty before been very happy with my pearls from her. I will still report back though.

    Real or Fake? What did I buy?

    I think they are real, from differences of what I can see in the nacre. If they are fake they are very good imitation ( I have some Majorca’s and they are also very good lol)

    I don’t want to end up on ban island,,,

    Hmmm I think the Tahitians will get more use. Iam a little surprised as I generally like them a bit more pastel but the overtones are so pretty. But you did inspire me to think, what will go with my fancy new tango boots? I think the Tahitians win. Thank you!

    I don’t want to end up on ban island,,,

    I don’t want to end up banned from my love of pearls, so Iam trying to decide if absolutely need one these. Generally I feel like if you need to know when you see something, but they are both so beautiful on different ways

    How bad is it really to fondle your pearls?

    ! I know the feeling! It that line of enjoyment of the items you love, and not wanting to damage them. Pearls are very tactile compared to gems, at least to me.

    How bad is it really to fondle your pearls?

    I often stare at my pearls and turn them im my hands to look at the interplay from the nacre. So long as you wash youre hands and wipe the pearls down after it should be fine.

    Is it really Kojima? What are these pearls?

    It really does add to the charm. It is a lovely cameo. From the pin mechanism I would I guess it may be Victorian. I am not an expert but I think it may be Italian from the shell pattern.

    Is it really Kojima? What are these pearls?

    They can wriggle if the pin is horizontal and it’s longer, though you can use silicone earring backs to keep that from happening. If it’s vertical I haven’t experienced wriggle since gravity helps there. And I would love to see the cameo brooch! She must have been a lovely lady.

    Is it really Kojima? What are these pearls?

    I second this, I bought a bunch on Amazon because in addition to my pearl addiction I collect filigree brooches. They slide on horizontally or you can get vertical ones as well. They great for expanding the ways in wich you can wear them.

    For people who purchase pearls… specifically with gold clasps

    Personally I look for clasp that are easy to use. I only care that they are not flimsy. When Iam wearing pearls it’s all about the pearls ! As Merrily noted it can often make the price go up considerably. Now when it’s filigree or other such metal work , that can be a bit different and is...

    Not sure how to feel about these.

    They are a beautiful color, but it depends on your preferences. Do you wear more warm tones? Stark white pearls tend to make me washed out personally .

    I will stack pearls together, but tend to worry about other materials. But you found a good way around that!
