I think it got me. I Just realized searching in this Forum that we have a seller in the Netherlands, Cees (Who Is also part of the forum). I think I am getting the GSSP He has available now and to pair it with a pair of simple studs. The colour of the strand Is wow. I am waiting for the picture in the day light

@lycat, I love my GSS from Cees! And that is my favorite shade of gold pearls.
I think you will be thrilled with them. Please post lots of photos when they arrive!

Are they being set with the wire and invisible clasp? (Like this: https://www.pearl-guide.com/threads/baroque-jewelmer-golden-ssp-from-cees.9977/page-2#post-213875)

I find this a very comfortable system-- no itchy clasp to scratch my neck. And no need to restring periodically.

Thank you for sharing, I think the Pearls are still not stringed and He told me a Gold clasp like one of the picture is included, but I don't really like it. I saw the invisible clasp and I will ask him if it is possible to do it the way you have yours (wire+invisible clasp), I like the strand to be made of "pure" pearls. Unfortunately I will have to wait till October, as He Will be back in Europe late September.
But I am Happy I found his Page, I think the price is reasonable and if I like the strand I will buy more in the next years

The bean clasp is very easy to use, but I always think it looks a bit cheap next to other clasps. However, I have a necklace that a bean clasp came with, and I kinda love it now.

The bean clasp IS easy to use-- I restrung a Tahitian necklace of my husband's with one as he was having trouble with the box clasp it came with. No problem using the bean clasp now.

I finally chose my strand and earings. I opted for the harpoon and wire system, I also added some pearls to make it 46 cm long, otherwise with the invisible clasp It would have been 43 cm, Cees suggested me to make it 46.
I chose 11 mm earings with simple Gold pins.
He had also 13 mm, but I think It would look too big as first SSP earings.

I Will have to wait exactly one month

I think you will like 11mm. Mine are 10.8mm and very comfortable (I have large ear lobes.)
