What a cool necklace! Is it half pearl and half chain? That is a terrific way to style it. And love the pearls in your hair!

Oh, you only wore the RESTRAINED rings today... Really love that necklace!

The pearls are made to go with that jacket, and, the texture on that jacket!!! I can't figure out how they did that. "Well, Merrily, it's called a baroque jacket because the satin nacre isn't smooth..."

Acp-pearls, lovely pearls, but the wire-wrapped necklace of natural Tennessee river pearls stands out for me! Like wearing a piece of American history. Jeg, with that dress, you need to put elastic on your necklace and wear it as a belt. Love the set and so interested in where abalone pearls...

yes, but were they 100 year old oysters? It takes a while for them to choose which pearl to yeet.

What a great design!

I love the graceful double pendant! (all of them, really, but the pendant the most.)

Those purples are stunning, especially with the hints of electric blue. (No, spell check, not puppies, but purple puppies would be cool.) Jeg, I don't know if I like your pearls or your outfits better. Okay, it's the pearls hands-down, but I just enjoy your style.

My pearl pairings just got exponentially bigger....

We had such a great time, really discussed nothing but pearls, and Tiger's wonderful eye candy and Weaves and my new stuff since the last mini-ruckus. And as a new pearl aficionado, I learned cool stuff! I was resplendent in Kojima, and it was so much fun to pile them on for a receptive...

Also, Myrtle Beach is on the Atlantic, and Giant Clams are in the Pacific.

Yes, not an expert like Jeremy, but I don't see a swirl in pictures of conch pearls. I have often found vague swirls in beach shell bits, where the wave action on sand wears a shell down to the thickest part, the center starting point of a spiral shell.

It looks like a snail silhouette. Do I see a similar color around the holes?

are you sure that's a finger ring and not a bunny ear ring? Either way, it's gorgeous, love the shape!

That beautiful grouping of colors makes me long for a fun necklace!

For what it's worth, some quick bench-marking from reliable stores shows that that is a good retail price in the US for an excellent pearl of that type and size. If you get your 20% off, that would be way better than retail. Like @pattye said, the experts here (not me) can't tell the quality...

Picturing what I would do with 74 strands of fake Tahitians...or tightrope walking a string of pearls to the sun...this really made me laugh, thanks!

Then it was time for goodies. Each attendee got pearl earrings and a door prize ticket. Here are the earrings. They are button-shaped and with very little luster. However, Brennan said they are twice the size of last year's gifts. [Poor them.] Door prizes were given out, including the...

Then we were given a buffet lunch, and settled down for the presentation. Brennan began by talking about himself and his company. He said he started out with Mikimoto 45 years ago [BWeaves said that Mikimoto only hired Japanese at that time period], and his company produces 10 million tons of...

I went to a Love The Pearls event held in my 55+ neighborhood community, which was to be a presentation and a shopping opportunity. This was hosted by International Pearl Group and presented by Mike Brennan. When it was first announced, I invited BWeaves to join me, and she posted this thread...
