Jeweler wants gold to match the pearls. I want silver (platinum, etc) as a contrast and to reserve the gold for the pearls.
I honestly did not understand pairing gold pearls with white metal until I saw the below pearl that I set in that white gold and diamond bail last night. I totally get it now! As @BWeaves said, I think the pearl picks the metal color. I love the contrast the white gold gives. Please excuse the silver chain - when I went to wear it this morning I realized I don't own a single white gold chain! I'll be heading by the jeweler's at lunch.
I also got my Sea of Cortez mabe ring back and the little golden akoya keshi pendant from Takahashi that I will share later on!
