Thanks so much, BWeaves! A Tahitian pendant from Hawaii with a Tahitian dangle bracelet and large tin cup I wire-wrapped.

Thanks so much, BWeaves! Ooo, Syrie and BWeaves, I love both your strands of pastel Tahitians! Really pretty, soft, colors. My little h studs from the mini Ruckus last weekend- Tahitians stuffed with sparkly white diamonds. Worn with a strand of silver Tahitians from PP and a strand of natural...

What a great combination of blues, BWeaves! Ahhh, the Kamoka’s are gorgeous, Surfnsci! I know what you mean about staying in line. :cautious: I just got a new car, so it’s taken a bite out of my pearl playing. At least it’s something I like, rather than a new roof or drains or some un-fun...

Thanks so much, Syrie and Surfnsci! Yes to learning how to wire wrap Syrie! Blue Akoya rope from PP with a blue Akoya strand from Takahashi. I made the earrings with loose pearls from Takahashi.

Oh boy, those are fantastic representations of the Fijian pearl colors, Surfnsci! I love the pearl/ring you chose! And I absolutely loved that you were able to join us for the pearly vault visit!!!:giggle:

Gathering with all the pearl friends is so worth the trip! We missed seeing you in person, too, BWeaves!

Yeah, the round Akoya were one of the later pearl types I added to my collection. Even having them, I was so tempted by the beautiful Akoya strands that were from Christina Assael’s private collection. So beautiful, but I know you like bigger pearls, so $$$.

Oooo, Katkashmir and lary007, I love your new Fijian pieces! They are both right up my alley and I would’ve made the same choices. Enjoy wearing them!!!:giggle:

The shark’s tooth is a fun piece, BWeaves! Those pearls are statement pieces, Syrie! The chain is an easy fix if you choose to swap it out down the line. A SS and Tahitian necklace from Kojima, and the large FW drop pendant is also from Kojima. I wrapped the station chain with SS keshi, and...

I only took a comparison snapshot and didn’t look closely at the strands as I was focused on sorting through other pearls. From what I could see with the comparison strands, the bead nucleated strands were a cooler tone. I’m sure there’s a range-

And there’s more…

Many thanks again to everyone at PP. We had the most wonderful day, filled with beautiful pearls and pearly friendship.:giggle:

I added several more PP eye candy pics that were taken by Clint, the professional, to the mini Ruckus thread…

Adding more photos taken by Clint, the studio professional-

Thanks so much, PearlyLibrarian! It is like a dream to be able to play with so many fabulous pearls, not to mention pearl friends. I’m looking through the pics that Clint took and will post those in the “mini Ruckus 2025” thread as soon as I do a little sorting. Ahhh, the blue studs are...

Lucky was done, but some of us headed back to Santa Monica to celebrate Walter’s birthday! And a tiny show and tell on the bed. I didn’t capture all the pearl choices since I spent so much time making decisions of my own. I left with a pair of little h studs of Tahitians and sparkling...
