Thank you, Pomelo! I’ve kept all the Akoyas together and haven’t mixed them with anything. I haven’t had them next to any of my light T’s to see what the contrast would be like, but I’ll pull some out and take a look. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with PearlyLibrarian. Love that...

Pretty pearls and looks, PearlyLibrarian, BWeaves, Mary-Contrary and oysterow183! So, I had a couple thoughts for you, PearlyLibrarian… I can’t remember if you do your own wire-wrapping and stringing, but I pulled up a couple examples of both. I went with delicate pieces since your looks seem...

Thanks so much, PearlyLibrarian! Welcome, Mary-Contrary!!! I’m so happy you decided to come out and play! Oooo, I love feather pearls, and what a fun way to show it off! This is my wildest strand that I share every fall. A strand of crazy shapes and colors of Fiji pearls from Cees, with...

I think you scored with your pearl points, BWeaves. I honestly love your new pieces over the Eclipse strand.:love:

I love your new pieces, PearlyLibrarian! My go-to studs used to be silver Tahitians, but I find myself grabbing my blue baroque Akoya all the time now. The bracelets are fun, too! BWeaves, you have such nice memories from your mom. I especially love the two Akoya necklaces you wore for her...

Thanks so much, CatMom and BWeaves! I love feather pearls, BWeaves, and those earrings are so great! What a fun look, PearlyLibrarian! Just a little bit of twinkle and I love those dangly earrings. Looks like a fun night out. A Tahitian keshi chain I wrapped, circle pearls knotted into a...

I hope I can rearrange my schedule so I can see this!:p

Seaglass Tahitian strand from Kojima, with a Tahitian keshi chain and earrings I put together.

Thanks so much, Pomelo! Hmmm, not really sure how to describe some of the colors. I guess some of them can resemble Tahitian colors but with more of a soap bubbly effect and lots of luster. It’s amazing the range of natural colors of Akoya pearls. We just never get to see them at market. The...

That’s a beautiful set and looks wonderful on you, Lycat! Planet Berna couldn’t be a more perfect pearl for you, BWeaves! What a great find. A blue Akoya strand from Takahashi, SS keshi studs from a PP/Takahashi live event, and a tin cup and earring jackets I put together with rare colored...

Thanks BWeaves! They are oldies. I’ve had the Tahitian/keshi chain for so long, I can’t remember when I got it. Tahitian and emerald earrings and pendant from little h, with a Tahitian strand from PP.

Thanks so much, BWeaves! And I don’t think you can ever have too many!;) A carved Tahitian pendant and a necklace of Tahitian/keshi, both from Kojima.

High luster golden SS paired mix and ombre rope from PP, with earrings I wire-wrapped.

Wow! Welcome back, Blaire! I hope you’ll be able to join us for the next mini Ruckus!!:giggle: Happiest Birthday ever, Jeremy!!! :party::fest30:

A pretty combination, BWeaves. Love all the colors! Perfect lighting to show off your Tahitians, Pomelo. It looks so glowy and fabulous on you! Tourmaline wheels and pearls from Kojima, worn with a tourmaline chain I wrapped.

Thanks SurfnSci! And I love that Akoya necklace!!:love: Tahitian/keshi earrings I wrapped with a multi-colored Tahitian rope.

Thanks so much for the kind compliments, Pomelo! Your mix of pearls and gems are fantastic! Ooo, beautiful goldens, SurfnSci! I don’t think I’ve seen these before? So fun to see everyone dressed up in pearls! Metallic Freshadama strand from PP, with metallic FW studs from a PP Live event...

Charlotta, I am just now seeing your post. It is so good to hear from you and I am glad you are enjoying your pearls, but so sorry about the medical concerns. Sending you lots of positive thoughts. Please take care of yourself and wear your pearls! :giggle:

Two necklaces and a bracelet I put together with Fiji pearls from Cees.

There are small rubber or silicone buffers but I think anything you use will add to the length just like knotting. I have used serafil on a few strands and not added knots. I’m not overly concerned about rubbing, but if you have any concern about the wear on your pearls, I would personally...
