Terry, Send them to me, I'll model them for you :p. Can't guarantee that you'll get them back though. Muhahaha. . . Each one of those is gorgeous. I like them all!

Almost forgot, here is one other photo. This is a close up of the vietnamese akoyas (7.5-8mm) vs Lavender Freshwater 8-9mm. I think they both have lovely orient, but the vietnamese has a slightly better luster. Off topic, how do you all wear your lavender strands? I've had my lavenders...

My Vietnamese Akoyas My Vietnamese Akoyas So it's taken me a while, but I've finally had time to resize my photos. In the process, I accidentally saved over the original file of one of the wedding photos. A little disappointed, but I have other photos to look at... should have backed it up...

Hi Valeria, So hard to choose a favorite, I actually really like how each color bounce off of each other. It will be a tough choice, but I think I do like the light blue/silver and the pinks the best. They just show up so well. I'm posting pics under the "show us your pearls" section in...

I got my vietnamese akoyas from TPO today. Wow. breathtaking. The pearls shine so brightly even in regularly lamp light. Just unbelievable. The photo on the website does not do it justice. I can't wait to see how they look in daylight or sunlight! I love my basket clasp and the adjustable...

I'm going to guess the chinese lucky number: 888. :)

Slraep, Thanks for posting that link. Very informative. I really appreciate it.

Beautiful ring! Nice french manicure too. :)

Jerin, What browser do you use? I'm a PC-user, so my method may not work on a MAC. But the properties method also gets the same result. Caitlin, When I suspect a link in an email is not a valid one, or did not come from the correct source, and the email is asking me to update my information...

I like my white pearls to have a rose overtone, thus almost kind of pink. So I wanted my second pearl strand to be lavenders, as it would be color-wise, more different than my white strand. But eventually I'll get a pink strand. I thought I read somewhere on the forum that lavenders are less...

The way I'll look for fraudulent links in emails is by hovering or right-clicking on the link. At the bottom of your browser, you should see the link address on the Status Bar. I usually check to see if the domain is what I expected. For example, the domain name for this forum is...

Richipat, I didn't get to go into the vault, but Mia did keep bringing out different colors and strands from the vault. It was filling up the little table that they have there. I saw some really wonderful Tahitians, a lot of treated freshwater: chocolates and blacks, and some freshadamas...

I did see a bunch, but didn't ask Mia what the overtones are. Sorry. anyone else have photos?

Bringing this thread back to its title. . . I've just placed my order with Terry for the 7.5-8mm Vietnamese Akoyas (gem quality). I cannot wait to get them! Am getting a necklace and a bracelet and earrings too! So excited, wish I could see them now.

I think that's AMAZING customer service. :) I want freshadamas in every color and every size with this kind of service.

The greens are called "black" with green overtones. Thank you! I do love my earrings, but i got the french wire and am regretting a little bit that I didn't get the leverbacks. :-( Oh well, I guess I can always change them out later if they really bother me. Tiff

Barbie, I mentioned this to the hubby today and he said: "Get what you want, but I just don't want to know how much you will spend." So I'm going to wait to hear back if Terry has the gem quality multi-color akoyas. The hubby wanted to get me LV bags since that's what "all his co-workers"...

Great suggestions! I will ask Terry about them. Thanks!

Do you guys think .5mm is that much of a difference?
