What a dreadful mess. Sven was great to deal with so I'm sorry he's not the owner anymore. I hope you are able to get some satisfaction. They should be able to mail now. If nothing else he should be able to get ahold of the wholesaler, he does seem to be able to send emails... But certainly...

If you haven't worked with gold leaf before you might need to read up on it. I use it with Sterling silver and a technique called Keum Boo where the gold is bonded to the silver with pressure and heat. You would need a base coat in the space you want to foil. Pearls are porous so you...

Everything looks lovely ! That strand you are wearing looks wonderful on you ! Cees is a great source for pearls and a lovely guy !

You might ask Wendy at Pearlescence if she has some she could sell you. Also, on stringing tiny pearls. I use those tiny little bead bumpers about every 5 th pearl. That way if it breaks you won't lose everything.

Beautiful strands !!! Just gorgeous - Im jealous !!!!

Douglas - do you know what causes the Blue Akoya to often have a mottled surface? It appears on a lot of the Blues I've seen and there is a pale beige sort of under colour ? And do they actually know why they are blue ? Is it due to a bacterial infection or such creating debris in the layers ?

Well I'm just catching up to this ... Well done Wendy ! And good on them for correcting their mistake. Their reputation is obviously very precious to them and I'm sure they were very pleased to have had their mistake corrected. I had told a story here a long time ago about shopping in NYC at...

Well so many pearly treasures trotted out for the holidays ! I've been flat out the last two weeks so I'm a bit behind ! Everything looks lovely - jeg I love the colour bands in your Tahitian rope. And of course your wonderful style and those fabulous Kojima pieces. Syd , Tahitians look...

I looks like a WSS bi colour - I have found these before where there is a light yellow/gold at one end of the pearl. I don't think the price is outrageous by any means - as pointed out before - it's 18k with yellow diamonds which is pricey on its own. The pearl itself would be a good few...

Isn't she just gorgeous !

The @ symbol is actually very old - going back several hundred years and used in relation to measurements or counting. ( thank you Google) Really lovely pearls !

Charlotta - I do hope you are feeling better - two weeks is quite awhile to be that unwell. Do take it easy as some of these things linger on. Love all your remakes with those gorgeous Wendy pearls :)
