Thanks for the run-down Caitlin - I meant that (love hearing the news of the day) plus any loot photos form the hotel rooms. I totally understand why there aren't photos allowed in the exhibits. Very curious to see where the mud pearls evolve - is souffle being used as an equivalent term...

This conversation makes me hunger for some photos! I gotta' live vicariously through you guys,,, ;)

Oh my - I certainly hope this passes with the least amount of damage possible.

Agreed - stunning. I really like the contrast in this strand and the shapes are lovely. Good choice!

I'll reiterate the interest in seeing some photos with all the measurements, etc. you can share. From my current perspective, it is hard to imagine ever not being interested in abalone. Can't wait to see what you have.

Love the education - please do keep going...I don't often answer or guess (the truthful way of putting it) as I am such a newbie.

Josh, you are all kinds of BOOYA! That's my word o' the year for stickin' it out with style. :) You rock.

Hi Josh - What an awesome trip - thanks for taking us along. :)

Now THAT's what I'm talking about! Can't wait to learn more. Thank you for sharing these stunning photos with us!

Just stunning - thank you so much for sharing these! The color depth really sets these apart - it's gratifying to see the production continue, regardless of size. Japan Kasumis have a place in my heart. I have a question that may be a bit dim but... Are there ever second harvest pearls from...

Wendy - you and me both with the daydreaming. Although I am unqualified to do the work it sure sounds lovely compared to being under the grey blanket of clouds. Sven - can't wait to hear more about your shop.

Quite possibly in my closet. ;)

To all the natural pearl aficionados, there are some lovely new necklaces just up on Sarah's site. Get thee hence! LINK

#3, #4 and #5 for overall (relative) size and shape...all have a beautiful mix of colors which would be unique compared to your other necklaces.

Sweet! (literally) Congratulations Kauai Anne. :)

KauaiAnne and Blaire - Both of you have devised SUPER charming designs! I am impressed with your inventiveness. What a cool contest to get all these ideas going. :)

Hi Pattye - This is awesome...I love the blossom of pearls. For some reason (I was pondering pearls of all sorts) I instantly saw this with a Tahitian baroque and Tahitian keshis surrounding. ? Honestly this is just made to celebrate pearls of all colors.

I missed the second one too, dang. Olga I love that ring design! It's nicely balanced and I'm in Pattye's camp thinking it could be a "bee" which I definitely enjoy. How very regal!

OK everyone - I will go first. I did these way back when this was announced but admittedly did not pull the technology aspect together to post jpgs until now. The ring: I couldn't help but pick up on the vocabulary already used in NZ Natural's jewelry. The ring uses mixed metals with the gold...

What a beautiful necklace. Can't wait to see if you can get another luster-revealing shot. And Caitlin: Those always take my breath away. :)
