    Japan Kasumi Pearls

    Thank you ladies! Pattye : yes, "non-pearl" colors insert laughing crying face here ! Marianne : Yes the "decade" strand I love it! Simply Adorned: That was my take too... when it was all laid out, even though it was so different than the baroques, I found it beautiful and that's what this...

    China pearl farmers address pollution problems

    Thanks Pattye, That was a really great article, and I learned a new word "eutrophication". I have long worried about the sustainability of Chinese fresh water pearl production.. and this article both encouraged me to relax and filled my mind with a thousand new questions. LOVE THAT. All best...

    Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

    I'm just going to leave this here, because although these pearls must not be genuine.. I think Solange deserves a shout out for this photo (and pretty much everything else she does). I do not know who the jewelry designer is but I think I am in love. Hope this finds you all fantastic! Cheers

    Lpearls.com warning - they will rip you off - NOT akoya

    Hi all.. I saw a FB site of a silly lady opening oysters for people on a live stream video, my friend sent it to me as a joke.. it was actually hilarious, and terrifying and of course they were dyed freshwater being touted as anything under the sun.

    KIMA (Tridacna sp) Pearls

    That ring is AWESOME! Perfect elegant and non-competitive setting for the flame of that pearl! Yes to a small bump of gold on the inside bottom of the shank, we've done that for many a top heavy ring.
