    Keep or Return...Tahitian Pearl Studs

    Well, Of course the skin, hair and nails are gorgeous, but I do think the studs are a bit large looking. That's fine if you like that, but not sure.... One option is reutrning them and getting smaller ones that have are better shine/less foggy? I'm not saying they're not nice though. :D

    unbleached freshwater pearls

    That's a gorgeous bracelet. I want it!!! Um... was it expensive? (You don't have to answer that of course). Just wondering... I want a bracelet and earrings for my collection but I'm taking a L_O_N_G time deciding.

    My pearl from Thailand What is it?

    I thought the black strand was actually pretty good looking. I really liked it.

    Which strand should I get? (Urgent advice needed)

    I think they look gorgeous. What about a more cream-coloured strand with larger pearls?

    Which strand should I get? (Urgent advice needed)

    Oh P.S. I have a very, very long neck described by some as elegant but by my husband as tree trunk-like. However the 16" strand is fine. It's even 16" *including* the clasp. I like my pearls close and tight. When I bend forwards nothing clonks me in the face or gets in the way or goes in my...

    Which strand should I get? (Urgent advice needed)

    Pearl lust? Pearl itch? I can tell you a bit about that! Unfortunately... it never goes or calms down. I think about earrings, other strands, and bracelets pretty often, even though my first ever purchase of pearls was recent. It's a weird kind of addiction because there are so many types...

    New to the forum and need some advice on a left field question!

    Wow - how exciting. I wish you luck in finding something for her yourself. A wonderful idea, making it as personal as possible.

    Which strand should I get? (Urgent advice needed)

    I choose the top strand. My favourite length of pearl neckalce is 16" and no longer. That's because it will likely always show, and not be hidden underneath any clothes. I want my pearl necklace to be seen and admired at all times. :-D

    Like so many others... I inherited some pearls and I'd like to know more.

    Wow that would be a very lovely necklace if it's real.. Bacca - yes, maybe you're right. Amanda - yes I can totally imagine how a pair of pearl earrings was a sign of having got somewhere. They do usually look classy.

    Like so many others... I inherited some pearls and I'd like to know more.

    I can't believe how many people inherit pearls!!! Until I joined this forum I knew nobody with pearls and certainly nobody who inherited any. I think a lot of inherits are "inherits" (I don't mean you by the way). I like the first picture but I'm afraid I couldn't tell you much. Do you think...

    What do people think of this?

    I'm guessing they were kicked off eBay.

    What do people think of this?

    I can't keep my mind or eyes off pearls for very long, and tend to spend hours browsing around sites or various kinds looking. I'm not intending to buy - especially the ones I link to below, because I don't like them. My aim is to educate myself. On a UK auction site (not ebay) there are these...

    Furrow Pearls - Would you buy these?

    My immeidate reaction was no, I wouldn't buy those pearls. I think (sorry) they look cheap - maybe you don't mind? They appear superficially shiny, without depth. To me they seem brash and showy. This is all just my personal taste. I don't want to wear pearls that look like sweets you could pop...

    Inherited Pearls! Would like some Info? :)

    Wow - I guessed right! I'm so pleased with myself. This forum has taught me some things about pearls.

    Inherited Pearls! Would like some Info? :)

    Wow, it's funny, but they don't even look like pearls to my eyes (I am a beginner so don't take any notice of me - others will come along and help you). The reason I say what I do is because they look so shiny - shiny rather than lustrous. These beads seem to shine from the outside, whereas all...

    9-12 mm freshwater pearls

    They don't do much for me. Looking a little dull. Not sure about price but people would probably have to see better photgraphs more close up to see how round they are, what kind of blemishes they have and, most importantly, what they are - although they look like Fresh water pearls to my...

    Anyone else love the pearl necklace in the latest installment of Batman?

    Ooh, I will go and see Batman for this reason alone! :)

    Interesting new strand from Mikimoto.

    Oooh those pictures are lovely. Very interesting to see this kind of work. It's one of those experiences where you can obviously see the different colours, but when you follow the strand along with your eyes it's very hard to say where the colour actually changes, if you can say at all. Magic.
