I like the bands of color in your Tahitians.

 

[pattye]

Oh, the Tahitians are so interesting and full of character! I adore ringed pearls and all their colors! Will you make earrings also?

 

[CathyKeshi]

Alyend- Those Circles Tahitians are great...who cares about the fish bites...it's all about the colours . I love the bands of colour on circles and baroques.

Thank you Pattye!
I think I'll use all the pearls (both strands) to make a long necklace. But I think I'll buy another strand from the same vendor as soon as I can to make a matching bracelet and earrings.

Thank you very much Jeremy for the coupon, but I already passed the Pearl as One exam (I also received the certificate a few weeks ago).
I think my boyfriend (he is a goldsmith) may be interested in the course too, so may he use this code instead of me?
I am glad to know that it's now available in italian too!

Hello everybody, how are you? I've got some news about my collection!
I've stringed the two akoya strands I showed you some months ago to make an alternated necklace 70cm long:

I've also stringed the circle tahitians into a single necklace 85cm long. For the moment I added a simple clasp (no precious metal), but I will upgrade it to an 18k yellow gold as soon as I can.

My last addition to the collection is a pendant I made just yesterday using a freshwater fireball pearl I received as a gift from a vendor in Florence. I used a setting in 18k yellow gold with a genuine diamond. I love this pearl, it's so shining and has a lot of colors, unfortunately you can't see them well in the pictures.

Very nice collection of pearls.

 

[SydK]

Lovely collection. An alternating small-larger pearl pattern always looks so elegant.

 

[Katbran]

Your pearls look lovely ! You must be very pleased !!

So now i should add to the "inventory" of my collection these earrings too. Their story is discussed in this post: https://www.pearl-guide.com/forum/showthread.php?12801-I-need-your-advice-please!

Lovely collection, Alyend!

Are your earrings articulated/free moving, or are they soldered together so they don't move? Either way, they're beautiful!

 

[Charlotta]

Gorgeous earrings, looks beautiful with the new setting.

Lovely collection, Alyend!

They are articulated, so the diamonds can sparkle. Here's a video I made:
