Giant Keshi

[jshepherd]

This is something of a special keshi strand. They are side-drilled and slight graduated, from about 12 mm to 18 mm+ in the middle. It is about 26-inches long.

Oh man, just one more thing to add to the wish list! Like it wasn't already long enough!

Very nice colors and chunky shapes in that strand! It would go perfectly with the Kamoka keshi studs I am wearing today...

 

[nlerner]

OMG! Amazing!

 

[Hanaleimom]

Oohh.....Wow. The colors and shapes are attractive. However, it will just be wearing me. Will there be more available in slightly smaller sizes?

 

[Mandy]

I can only imagine the lucky person whose gonna get this. Love it!

 

[Caitlin]

Will you put it on lay-away for me? (just kidding!)

Tell us about the clasp. Is it a ball and socket clasp? I just got five of those in sterling, at "hip Chicks" (or something close to that name)

They are my new favorite. In fact I was going to start a favorite clasps thread with them as the starter.

 

[jshepherd]

It's not a real clasp. It is just a temporary thing so we could wear it and see how much of a monster it really is.

We will probably add some to the site, but not this one. I am pretty certain it will be gone by the end of the day. The others will be smaller, of course. Much smaller!

OMG!! Out of this world!! I can only imagine what the colors are like from my Cook Is bracelet, "La Almudena"------

Please feel free to start a "favorite clasps" thread! Let it include both one-of-a-kind ("Nya nya, I've got the only one") clasps *and* current online vendors' clasps (helpful to potential customers). Favorites, both in terms of looks and *ease-of-use*....

I have a Freshadama strand on hold, and am unsure about the *clasp*, since I like the Double-Heart Diamond clasp's looks, but have read on this forum that it can be frustrating to use.

Currently, several of the choicest-looking clasps on PP are "Out of Stock"

Thanks, Caitlin, for hopefully starting this new thread!

p.s. There are so many delectable pearls to purchase, that I can see my "strand fund" easily getting whittled away.

Wa-a-ay unique, attractive, and arty-looking keshi strand. Too too too tempting.

Almost freakish. Has the total carat weight been determined?

 

[jshepherd]

I just did the math. It is almost exactly 34 momme. That comes to 127.5 grams or 637.5 carats. It will take a strong neck for that one!

 

[Monty Hall]

Are these Tahitian keshi?

CarolK

 

[jshepherd]

Yeah, all Tahitian!

 

[mikehrz]

Price range?

 

[jshepherd]

Price range is "already shipped out today!" Actually, it "was" in the $6k range.

 

[Pearl Dreams]

Great color palette in that strand!

 

[Monty Hall]

*I* would certainly be interested in seeing an archive of "Unique Necklaces We've Sold" at the various online dealers' web sites!

It's nice to drool over, say that 17-21mm South Sea necklace Pearl Paradise displays as "SOLD", and this keshi would certainly be a candidate.

Beautiful! It does look heavy.
