    Message me if you think you might be in SF on a Thursday morning, maybe before PBTB, if you’ll be heading back home soon after. I’m diving every week, and my sweet Birch has been hungry lately! 🧜‍♀️💖🐟

    PEARLS BY THE BAY 2023

    I’m afraid my giant seabass boyfriend isn’t in the aquarium I dive in on Monday, so you won’t be able to witness my seductive herring-waving technique, but I’ll be happy to give you a high five through 7 inches of acrylic in between scrubbing off algae spots in the Philippines Coral Reef...

    Yes, I’ll be diving at Aquarium of the bay (Pier 39) Thursday, and Steinhart Aquarium (California Academy Of Sciences in Golden Gate Park) on Monday. Send me a message if you want to come visit, and I’ll let you know when I’ll be in the tank. If he is in a good mood, you might be able to see me...

    RIP Mike Rivers

    Broken-hearted over this one. Mikeyy was a great guy, and a close friend. So sorry not to have been able to spend more time with him, but grateful to have met him, thanks to this forum! You will always be in my heart, dear Mikeyy. 💔💔💔

    Pearl Earbuds - yay or nay?

    Interesting concept, though given the technology I would think it would be more effective for talking on the phone rather than actually listening to music. That said, I will give it a thumbs up!

    advice needed on gilding a damaged WSS pearl

    To weigh in on StarryPearl’s inquiry, I do think you should seal the gilded area, as it would likely wear off with friction. A clear 2-part epoxy resin would be durable and unlikely to turn cloudy.

    What is this metal component called? And, is it necessary?

    Bead core, bead eyelet, bead grommet. Some reinforcement of the hole would be advisable for everyday wear of a pearl on a chain, since the metal is harder than the pearl and could ultimately cause damage.

    My pearls

    I'm also happy to vouch for Agustus-collection - have gotten lots of stuff from them over the years, they are honest, great communication, reasonable shipping charges - always a pleasure to deal with! Sheri

    What do you think about this ring?

    Very pretty ring in an interesting setting, eeeck! You might find some similar loose SS pearls from a seller I have bought quite a few things from on eBay, Augustus-Collection. They are very nice to deal with, honest, reasonable pricing and fast shipping. I suggest you search “bicolor baroque”...
