I enjoyed the educational post, Amrita - thanks for taking the time to photograph and give us the story.

I would be delighted with the quality of these pearls. Josh is just way too picky! Congratulations, Sheri.

Ahhh - that warms me up nicely from our cold winter days. The colors are amazing and there are some whoppers in that collection. The last picture does indeed look like carnival glass, boo!

It looks like you had a blast, Sarah - finding lovely pearls in both human and mollusk form! What I would give for a trip to that beautiful beach. We haven't seen the sun in Boise for 9 days and the temperature is hovering at 30 degrees each day (and 19 at night). You sure make me envious!

That's a great juxtaposition of pearls, Sheri. Very imaginative and a lovey combination.

Love the color on those - very striking!

What a wonderful surprise - who would think, as you are going about your seeding work you would discover a natural pearl and one so beautiful. Congratulations!

Wow! I was away for a couple days and missed this. What a stunning find - congratulations!

I can't really add anything but will reiterate the comments of spectacular, amazing, and stunning. I have never seen anything like that. I'm not sure what you could make out of it, but I bet somebody would come up with something impressive. Thanks so much for the links as well - I'm learning...

Stunning - simply stunning. Congratulations!

My goodness, Olga, you are a lucky lady! Those are stunning. Congratulations!

Hi Sheri, I just got back from two weeks of business trips and was thrilled to see your post. What a fascinating trip. It does sound like hard work but that you were trooper through it all. Seeing that last post of pearls was truly spectacular - thems some big ones! John

J'aime bien les bracelets! Men need pearl love, too. I didn't see prices, though...

I missed this over the holidays - I'm gonna say 43!

Stunning, stunning... Truly a wonderful fine. I think making a long strand is a great idea. You deserve to be extravagant with pearls like those. Enjoy!

The iron seeding is fascinating - I had not read about it before. It seems "possible" it could be effective in removing "billions of tons" of carbon from the atmosphere. I haven't found a reference specific to the ocean CO2 levels, but it stands to reason if you reduce the atmospheric CO2 you...

Great design - as Ashley says, the silver is not only protective but it also gives the piece a great look.

Ack - I missed the previous postings by Marcus and Blaire, but I know even more now about CO2 levels in sea water. Thanks for pointing me to the previous postings. I agree that we have to do something about worldwide CO2 emissions. I'm hopeful that the US can at last work together with other...

I saw this article today, from National Geographic, on the rapid increase in the ocean water acidity. Things are worse than expected, but it is unclear to me what impact it has on oysters in salt water. They specifically mention a negative impact on mussels. What's bad for the mussels is bad for...
