My Kamoka Studs from Pearlescence!

[jiazzi]

I wanted to share the beauty of these magical Tahitians with all you Josh/Kamoka fans. They have such a strong peacock overtone, I find myself constantly taking them off at work to gaze at them and they never fail to take me to a happy place.

What I love so much about these studs is the glowing iridescence on the exterior of the pearls and then the ever-changing purple, silver, and pink colors in the center. Thanks Wendy for prompt and safe shipping/packaging! I love the fact that these studs were at the Stonehenge!

They are the same size although the pics show one pearl appearing larger than the other. Also, I tried to wipe them with soft fabric before their photo shoot but all this dust seemed to get attracted to them.

wow, they are gorgeous! I knew Wendy was really happy with those Kamokas - no wonder!

 

[GemGeek]

Woo Hoo! Those are some eye-poppers.

 

[waimeamomi]

Nothing like Kamokas! I've got to get a pearl drill, my new ones await.

 

[Nerida]

Ha ha, Sheryl, I also have a nice little kitty of undrilled Kamokas...

 

[pattye]

Those are an outstanding pair! Continue to enjoy them, Lucky , Fortunate, Jiazz'!

 

[SpaceNeedle]

Beautiful!! They look so alive, don't they?

 

[la_corsetiere]

What outrageous color! I'd be taking them off and gazing into them, too...

This is infinitely preferable to the necklace-gazing habit I've acquired, which to bystanders must appear to be an unfortunate fascination with my own bosom.

Which is precisely why I prefer ropes .........

Wendy,
Those earrings are stunning.
Thanks for posting the pics. Jiazzi.

Jiazzi, they are very nice. Congratulations!

Just what one would look out for when the description says: Bodycolour dark with peacock overtones!

Lovely!

Hi all, I haven't been around much lately (health issues etc..) but I am back to comment on such lovely pearls. They are quite stunning, with a fish eye reflection I remember from someone (Cortez Pearls?) that are supposed to be a very desirable effect from high pearl luster.

LOL. Cracked me up!!! So, when I eventually buy pearls I better buy a ring - would be easier to stare at.

Jiazzi,
The pearls are gorgeous. If you don't mind me asking - what size are the pearls?

Cheers,
ShashiRatna

 

[jiazzi]

Thank you for your kind words!

LMAO! I wait for the day when I have a full Tahitian strand where I can look down and have bystanders misinterpret what I'm looking at!

The pearls are gorgeous. If you don't mind me asking - what size are the pearls?

Hi SashiRatna. I don't mind at all! I wish I had the exact specs with me somewhere (maybe Wendy will be able to help me out) but I know they are about 11mm. They are HUGE and eclipse my 8.5mm FW pearl studs. The matching was very well done too.

 

[pearlescence]

I take no credit for the matching - all down to the skill of Mr Humbert. I've not got the exact measurement any more ( website deletes when there is a sale of a unique item)

 

[jiazzi]

I checked the size of the pearls based on a scale in "Stringing" magazine. I was mistaken - they are between 9.5mm and 10mm, not 11mm as I stated earlier.

 

[ShashiRatna]

Thank you.

I'd need to acquire longer pearls or a longer neck for that! But those pearls are gorgeous, like all Josh pearls. Happy wearing.
