Ha, too late! Just look how long I've been here! Actually about a year before I joined in Dec 2005!

Seriously too late..... Like I am waiting for my black Friday souffle pendant to arrive from POJ

Great color and luster. But I'd like to see it upright.

Very pretty. What sizes are the pearls? They will make lovely earrings.

This is such a tempting thread! Every time I see a new photo I'm like 'hey I could buy those too'.

You ladies all got lovely pearls!

they are very pretty pearls

Thank you~ Originally, I want to make those into one pair of earrings~but after some try-out~ the larger ones(about 14mm) are just too big to be earrings~so I am still thinking of what to do with the pearls~

Suchi- The necklace looks lovely ! Glad the smell is gone lol It can be a problem with some pearls. As for the big ones..you could use them as pendants ?

Thanks Katbran

Hi everyone!

I'm new here, and just discovered this site yesterday. I was researching Edison/metallic pearls and stumbled onto this thread and was delighted to see that others have ordered from KongsPearl on Etsy and had positive experiences.

I ordered an Edison pearl lot a few weeks ago and had the owner string it into a bracelet for me (I'm not the jewelry-making type), and it arrived today! I had her remove a pearl from the lot and make into a floating pearl pendant as well. I was initially disappointed when I opened the package because 1) the pearls were much larger than expected and 2) the colours were not as vibrant as expected BUT I put it on my wrist and it looks much better on my wrist and the colours show up much better under the shade rather than direct light.

Here's the lot I ordered: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/476785102/13pcs-117-13mm-metallic-color-edison

and here are some photos of the finished product:





And here are my favourite pearls on the bracelet, the ones that are lavendar with a green overtone:
