Inspired by our own @Pomelo, I recently purchased a pair of blue akoya earrings from Flower Jem on Etsy. PSS had fully set in, and the only cure was 8-9mm studs. I was so wonderfully pleased with these earrings, and the maker thoughtfully packaged them in a little pouch his mother made from...

I have the same shirt 😉 I love it!

I remember those pendants from the takahashi event. This is so gorgeous. A lovely claim!

What an amazing trip! THANK YOU for taking us along with you for your report!

As a fellow Floridian, we notoriously hate umbrellas 😂. You just have to make peace with the rain here and swim through the humidity. You get more wet trying to battle an umbrella.

Oh, stop. Those colors!!

I finished listening to the episode, and while there may not be a ton of new info if you’re already a big pearl nerd, it’s so fun to see pearls get their spotlight on new pop culture platforms! I think this show is generally very well done and thought it was a nice, short, and digestible intro...

I subscribe to the podcast “The Economics of Everyday Things,” and this week’s episode is on Pearls! Of course featuring Pearl Guide’s Jeremy Shepherd @jshepherd : Link to episode: https://freakonomics.com/podcast/pearls/

@jeg that Fijian strand - dreams! @Pomelo I love that whole fit. Yes to casual pearls, yes to wearing pearls everywhere! Today I popped on my new Tahitian ensemble for an important work meeting I was nervous about! I snapped up these dark Tahitians (most of mine tend to be on the light side...

It felt like a pink pearl day. The pink pearl drops and pink keshi choker are more Misha Hawaii pieces. The bracelet stack is a combo from Misha, Te Hotu Mana (silver Tahitian keshi), and a little Singaporean jewelry maker called Glitz and Love. I love the oil slick coloring on the bigger pink...

@Syrie I was wearing my Misha Hawaii today too! A very summery-feeling mother-of-pearl bead coil bracelet with silvery Tahitians, and a white keshi ring. I had a cute little Tahitian drop necklace that I would also show, but my baby has the pearl in her tiny grip and she’s napping hard after a...

My son had a Mother’s Day drop in at his preschool, and nothing says Mother’s Day to me more than some dainty white akoyas. 7.5mm akoya studs and a cute little triple akoya floater. A more casual bracelet situation, keeping the black and white theme with a baroque freshies knotted bracelet and...

My quest for some blueeeee baroque akoyas has culminated in this lovely pair of studs and a really fun little pendant. I snapped up the “Aya” pendant and the studs from the new batch of blue akoyas from West Pearl. Their colors and shape are so mesmerizing, I’m having such trouble getting good...

@jeg oh no!! The end of a trip and the loss of bunny and traveling pearl! That is a hard combo for sure! Looks like you had a beautiful time otherwise! Looking forward to hearing more!

My understanding is that baroque/circle shapes tend to be more colorful for pearls in general. For my blues, anecdotally the more baroque the shape, the more color they have. Same for my Tahitians - the circle Tahitians I have are by far the most colorful.

The Jack Lynch PP live crescent hoop gradient Tahitian drops (what a lengthy description) get a well-deserved day in the sun today with the curved bar circle T necklace.

Well the time has come. Maternity leave is over, and I’m trying to find a silver lining in the fact that it’s an excuse to wear pearls to work. If you have to go back to work, may as well. Tahitians for fortitude. Those of you who warned me about pearl shrinkage syndrome - you were right. I...

Ok so ….. as you can imagine from my handle, I pretty immediately went looking for pearl books after becoming pearl obsessed. I picked up some used books and have been very slowly making my way through them. When I recently watched the retirement live with Jack Lynch and saw “Pearls: A Natural...

Thank you @eolian pearls ! Speaking of Tehotu Mana rings….! My first from them just arrived in time for a post-wedding family beach trip! I am super pleased with the ring. I was always too scared to try a pearl ring (except a seed or rice pearl ring) because I’m pretty rough on rings. My...
