Sorry, I didn't take very good pictures. Picture of strand now This is taken in fluorescent white lighting - the colour is inaccurate. The strand is rosier and is not as dull as pictured. This other picture is taken in march in evening light. This picture close to what I saw when I first...

great green ones! they look marvelous!

Wow that's amazing. Some investigation would be great. i would really like to know what i did wrong - or is it aggressive (insert Josh's sig here) body oils. I'll take a picture of my strand it this evening and post it here. Raisondetre, Caitlin and Jerin, thanks for sharing your experience. If...

Great discussion! I recall that this was talked about in some other thread (can't find it now). I also remember from another discussion that Freshadama is treated, so I suppose fading is to be expected. I was hoping for its luster to maintain. Btw, does anyone have any experiences with the...

WOW these are seriously stunning! I love your collection of beautiful jewellery!

Hmmm...thanks for the great nugget Raisondetre. I think I'll get a cleaning package for my other pearls. I don't put on any sunscreen (or perfume) on my neck and I'm in air-conditioning a lot. (Really hot weather, here.) I bought a strand of freshadama strand & earrings and a baroque fw at the...

phew, i thought i was the only one who thought the Pearl of Allah freaking hideous!

I think Raisondetre put up a picture of her gem quality strand....let me try to find the thread. Opps, Heidi already did. Go for quality than size you will never regret it. The other way round you will always wonder about the nicer strand. I wear my freshadama strand every work day and I find...

Great buy! The colour is amazing!

I'm sorry to hear that you are going through bad times. These are druzy/rosebud pearls. I'm not familiar with their pricing as I don't see it in the B&M shops. Maybe others could help?

I noticed that the camera captures a lot of differences between FW show up differently from SSP. Sometimes I can't tell from sight but a picture launch a thousand slips. :D

Hi Spaceneedle. Great find but as other have said colour does not look natural. Looks almost brown!

Thanks everyone for the kind words and Jeremy for the excellent consumer advice! I do think it's pretty - so I hope no one was mislead. But I still look at the nice picture on the website and think - oooh, I want that one. I think someone mentioned that it could be photoshopped into a thing of...

I still don't know how to post pictures. See album here Ordered from http://www.americanpearl.com/10x12peacdro.html

PHWAH! P for POWER! :cool:

Did anyone get the ring? I think it's a seriously scrumptious design.

that tahitian drop is drop-dead gorgeous! :eek:

Oh! According to the specs, the cheaper is better (AAA). I think you would be paying for the size but you might want to note the AA+ surface - may mean it's not all beautiful? Sorry I've never bought from this vendor but heard good things.

Slraep: HILARIOUS!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA (I look away for a day or two, okay fifteen days, this is what happens....Jeez)

More plus points - I've always thought that large good quality tin cups (more than 11-12mm) is bumped up from the casual into the dressier category and as everyone said earlier in the thread, is more affordable than a full strand.
