    Where are everyone's Valentine's Day pearls?

    No pearls this year as the interest seems to have worn off but I am still keeping an eye out for a nice SoC pearl. Also, kid fell sick after starting kindergarten :( But, I did receive an African ruby bracelet of 10.5mm each bead :D

    Thank you Sea Urchin, Caitlin, Newberry and Dkan 168 for your kind words.

This pearl fever is burning big holes in our pockets. Caitlin, hehe, trust...

    My loot over the last few months :D

    These are some of my loot purchased over the last few months. I am sure I have more stashed away, but I cant remember where! I simply love those Chinese Kasumis and the metallic freshwater pearls. Hubby says NO MORE pearls until at least 2013 and I think I will have to agree. It makes me happy...

    Unsure pearls bought in the early 1990s.

    Thank you Pearl Dreams, Pattye and Amrita. The pendant is an unusual one. It is massive and really heavy. My Dad nicknamed it "Bullethead" as he remarked that it looked a lot like one from his hunting rifle. Am really pleased to know that our family jeweller knew what he was doing when he...

    Unsure pearls bought in the early 1990s.

    Hi fellow PGers, I bought these pearls back almost 20 years ago from a reputable jeweller in Singapore but as I had no idea at all regarding pearls back then(not much now as well), I never asked what they were, only that they are naturally coloured and have not been treated in any way. Please...

    Finally got to work the camera and I hope these are the best photos yet. Please take a look and tell me what kind of pearls are they.

    Pearls from long ago, but unsure if they are Tahitian and South Sea or freshwater?

    Thanks for the tips, Karin. Will try it when I get the chance. One of the lighter pearl is bigger than the rest and the golden one is bigger than the black and the other lighter colour one. Thank you for your compliment on the tourmaline bracelet. I love colourful things. Thank you Caitlin. I...
