How close is Metallic Freshadama to Hanadama Akoya (??)

[Katbran]

I agree as well , Inside Freshadama , middle metallic fresh and outside Hanadama . Gorgeous pearls and ithat picture really shows the difference in the lustre ..those Akoya and the mettalic freshies just glow !

 

[Myizzkie]

Wow! High Fives to everyone being able to tell them apart

I was asked by our fellow member to take some pictures of the Metallic Freshadama on white paper towel, might as well post those pictures here -- though I am always curious about white surface as I came acrossed many threads asking for pictures of pearls on white surface/paper towel. Can someone let me know why (??)

And here's pics - sunlight vs under shade;

Wow, that's gorgeous!

 

[Katbran]

Those are stunning !!

 

[Pearl Dreams]

Great photos!
What is the size of the metallic white freshadamas?

Pearl luster just shows up better against a white background. Even lustrous pearls look rather dull when photographed against a dark background.

Simply exquisite pearls. You are a lucky girl

 

[Pearl Dreams]

These are 8-8.5mm

That is such a useful size...not too big, not too small.
Neck shot, please?

 

[BAS]

All lovely! I agree -- neck shots, please!!! That's when pearls come alive. On their owner...

 

[JerseyPearl]

I totally agree...neck shots please.

The Metallics are just gorgeous! Enjoy them!

 

[KaySD]

The metallics are gorgeous and a great size. I would love to see them on you. Did you keep the regular Freshadama strand too?

 

[Myizzkie]

Hello All,
Thank you for the compliments on those pearls. All credits go to Pearl Paradise esp. Hisano who is so sweet and helpful. Yes, I am a very lucky person!

I'll try to take picture of neckshot, though I feel a little intimidated that my neckline will not live up to how gorgeous these pearls are. LOL

KaySD - I sent the regular Freshadama back as I am saving $$ for my next pearl necklace hunting project .. SOUTH SEA PEARLS! (Yes, Pearl Dreams, you sparked that need in me That being said, I still know very little about it and welcome all info./suggestion/comments from anyone. I am in love with the Silver tone. Pearl Paradise will be my first destination when I am ready financially.

Here comes the neck shots of the Metallic Freshadama --

Might as well put on the Akoya Hanadama for comparison --

I cannot believe how PP's Freshwater can be comparable to Akoya Hanadama!! I may check out PP's Akoya pearls one of these days )

 

[Pearl Dreams]

Wow, those are great-- alone and together!

 

[Frost Me]

Just beautiful together Myizzkie, the photo is good!

 

[kalmen22]

Neckshots look fantastic. You look great

 

[JerseyPearl]

Lovely...just lovely! That daylight photo of the metallics is wonderful...it really shows the luster of the pearls nicely. Both strands suit you very nicely. Congrats!

 

[Katbran]

They look absolutely beautiful !! I can see a bit of the pink in the Akoya on my screen and the lustre of both is really lovely !

 

[Myizzkie]

Thank you all again for the compliment!

I thought I wanted to get freshwater pearl necklace for casual wear but they turn out to be too stunning to wear casually!
