They are 11.5-14mm.

ok just purchased some peach/golden FWP. What color thread should I use for these babies?

I love the baroque, circle and drops as well!

Now I'm about to try this out. Which do you think I should do???

Thanks for all the input. I couldn't wait for the black and restrung them with the forest green. I don't know if it is because I removed the "unfortunate" pearls from the strand, the new string color or what, but I love them now! I purchased a new drop/circle strand that is a bit bluer to...

I have a strand of dark Tahitians that are strung on black thread. I want to restring and I have Beaders Secret Forest green. Do you think there is that much difference in the color? I just ordered black from Pattye so not sure if I should wait or go ahead and string it with the forest green...

I'm curious how do you store all your pearls? Do you have a multi-draw jewelry box, plastic trays, fabric pouches???

I just received an orbit clasp from RioGrande. It's so small! I'm having trouble figuring what size clasp to order. I got the 23mm one and thought that would be big enough but I think its going to be too small for my ripples. Ug so what size to do order for larger pearls?

I'm so glad I'm not alone. I think I'm just too casual for the fancy round ones. I just adore the funky shapes and colors of the circles. The drops are as close as I think I'll ever get to round. But they are all lovely.

Where do you purchase your clasps for your strands? I've ordered an "orbit" clasp from RIoGrande. But I'm looking for good quality clasps that don't break the bank...that way I can spend more on the pearls themselves!

I wish we could "like" comments. I'd be liking all Y'all!

I was wondering the same thing. I have been taking a look at the strands on her site. Are you happy with the bracelet you ordered from them?

I just placed my first order with Pattye. My sister is coming to visit in a few weeks and we are taking a stringing class at a local bead shop. I wasn't sure which color BS to order for my Tahitians so I got forest green. Does that sound right? I ordered ivory for my akoyas and FWP. I...

Thank you Pearl Dreams. The pics really don't do the strand justice.

The clasp is tiny! My sister is coming out for my birthday in a few weeks and we are taking a stringing class. I plan to replace this micro clasp with an orbit. The obsession continues.....

I hope these attach. They are more lusterous in real life! I haven’t mastered the natural light photos yet. I am super happy with them and they didn’t cost a fortune. Leaves room for more statement pearls��

oops...tried to attach a pic. will change it to a jpeg so it can load

Here’s an update on my pearls decision. I just received a beautiful strand of 10-11mm FWP today. The luster is amazing and they are huge! Super happy with them. I now need to learn how to string so I can change all my clasps! 52970458271__13A60F17-0758-4F19-A3EF-B2623353D293.JPG

Thanks ladies...I will wear my circles with pride!

Is it wrong that the circle and drop tahitian pearls are more to my liking than the round ones? I love the colors in the circle pearls. I don't know if it is because I'm new to Ts and haven't refined my tastes or what. Can anyone relate?
