I agree with Pearl Dreams.

Visiting Dad today wearing my new golden SS keshi wire-wrapped necklace. Green tourmaline necklace and earrings.

JEG: Wow! Love the redo and the mixed sized choker! Pearls and gem beads are my current favorite combos! Pearl Maven: Welcome!

I've come to really love bubble style strands rather than perfectly matched or graduated ones.

SS never occured to me, because I've never seen SS that looked like that. My mom had some circled SS pearls, but the quality wasn't that great. I'd love to see more examples, too.

They look like circled freshwater pearls from China. They are 100% pearl nacre. They are not worth very much, but they are very pretty. Enjoy wearing them.

WOW, I've never seen a case like that one, either. Very cool looking.

They look like imitation pearls when I blow up the photos and look at the drill holes and the yellowish color. The clasp with the bead ends also makes me think they are imitation. My grandmother's imitation pearls have the same look and also have a sterling silver clasp. Many women of that...

The diamond clasp is only used on Miki's AAA quality strands. You have a real find!!!

oysterowl83: OOOO, nice! I saw that Cees was having a Tahitian sale. I oogled every one of those strands.

Sooooooo, during the amazing Japan Trip to visit pearl farms, Hisano wore a necklace that she made for herself. It was wire wrapped, and alternated tiny, white, roundish akoya pearls with small, multicolored, oval tourmalines. I confess, I coveted her necklace. When we got back from the...

Kojima just posted a strand somewhat similar to my Wilma Flintstone strand, if you're interested. https://kojimapearl.com/collections/latest/products/gentle-shapes-white-fresh-water-pearl-necklace And they have this one...

Apparently 40 years of Tech Neck have given me arthritis and bone spurs in my neck and it's pinching the C8 nerve which controls feeling and strength in my left arm and hand. Thank goodness I'm right handed. I'm doing PT, and that's helping a lot. They call it Physical Therapy, but I've also...

Before and After of my 2019 All Josh Tahitian Pearl Harvest strand from Kamoka. Josh cultured all these pearls, because they're all rounder than the normal harvest necklaces that Kamoka makes. The flower clasp is very pretty, but the mechanism is small and fiddly, and I can't feel my left...

ennui: That is cool looking!

JEG: Wait? Is that THE necklace on the Kojima website right now? It's gorgeous!

My 25th anniversary pearls. Reborn pearls. These pearls have an amazing soap bubble luster that I cannot capture with my camera. Reborn pearls occured when Chinese, non-nucleated, freshwater pearls were harvested, and then the mollusk was put back in the water. A new, non-nucleated pearl...

Wow, those pearls glow!

PERFECT!!!!!

The bean clasp is very easy to use, but I always think it looks a bit cheap next to other clasps. However, I have a necklace that a bean clasp came with, and I kinda love it now.
