    Overtones vs Colours

    Thank you, Katbran. I really think I cannot quibble with the quality of the pearls. I think they are very good, indeed.

    Overtones vs Colours

    Pearl Dreams, I have already been in touch with Lynsey at PP. My requests are being passed to the buying team. ;) I do not feel I am in any position to go right to the top. Yet. Lol

    Overtones vs Colours

    Oh my giddy aunt, BWeaves! The orient on that necklace! Gorgeous. They do not look like pearls, more like drops of molten metal.

    Overtones vs Colours

    Now I need to be patient and wait for PP to get more Metallics in. Is there an email list I can join so I don’t miss it?

    Sizes are from 4 to 9 mm, I think. It’s 18” long.

    Overtones vs Colours

    I do love them, Jerseypearl, for a number of reasons. I have never seen Metallics before and I cannot get over how smooth and lustrous they are. They seem flawless, I have been all over them and found two tiny little dimples. There is also a glow, that I cannot describe. Nothing to do with how...

    Overtones vs Colours

    My first purchase, from a UK vendor. A graduated Metallic Multicolour FWP necklace. I am really happy with it. The pearls are smooth, look round and have no blemishes that I can see. Lustre is very strong and they display lovely colours of green and pink which my camera won’t show. I guess I...

    Overtones vs Colours

    Thanks, Pearl Dreams. I better go dig through those threads. I personally prefer the deep nacre inner glow of good freshies to the high shine of Akoyas, but that is purely personal taste. And I do like those White Metallics from PP. I cannot wait for them to get some more in. I love the soap...

    Overtones vs Colours

    I can see what you mean. I would not say that the Freshadama are flat, just slightly more satiny and not as metallic. I do like the orient on the Hanadama, though. Unfortunately they are out of my price range, so I might go with White metallic FWP, once PP have more in stock. Edit: Actually...

    Overtones vs Colours

    Thank you, BWeaves. Very interesting. I cannot see much difference at all between your Mom’s and the Natural White Hanadama but I do know the Natural Whites are stunning with lovely orient from other posters here. Do the pinked ones look pink or white when worn alone? I am looking for a white...

    Overtones vs Colours

    Hi all, I am trying to understand the difference between overtone and colour. As far as I understand overtone refers to white pearls? So you can have white strands with different overtones which will be very noticeable when viewed next to each other but when worn on their own the pearls look...

    The Crown pearls

    I watch The Crown purely for the bling too :)) as far as I know all the Queen’s pearls are wild pearls from the Persian Gulf. They were given to her when she was young before cultured pearls were a thing. As for what they use for the replicas in the show I have no idea. If you are interested in...
