Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[Katbran]

Wow Kay ! That's a feast for the eyes ! Those Freshwaters a lovely colours ! I do love the purple and pink pearls and the nice thing about. Multi colours is that it's so much easier to match up some earrings ! How lucky you had a great pair ready to go !

And matching nail polish ! Well done ..sets off that gorgeous ring beautifully !!

And the styling of the Tahitians ..very cool !

BWeaves- those earring as stunning ! And please remind me - your pendant - you had that made for you ?

WOW Kay!!! I love your pink drop necklace AND those earrings are TDF!!! The polish, SoC ring and Tahitian lariat are equally exquisite!!! Love it all!

 

[JerseyPearl]

Love the pearls Kay! You really did score nicely.

The two strand Tahitian lariat is genius KaySD, so simple yet so effective. I so love a lariat. (We need a heart eyes emoji!)Thanks for mentioning which nail polish this is, I was definitely going to ask! It looks incredible with your fw strand, which are such a great size/length combo.

BWeaves, so many things to appreciate about this look, but mostly it is making me want to try pearl drops hanging from larger hoops...

 

[BWeaves]

Kay, I love both looks and the matching nail polish!

Orbit clasps are so versatile, it's amazing. Even the look at the bottom is interesting enough to be a dangle in its own right.

JerseyPearl, THANK YOU! Thank you for redrilling a couple of my Ruckus blue akoya pearls with challenging holes. I decided to even put the ugly pearl back in the strand. I put both by the last clasp, because the holes were larger and that's where I need a little extra width to work the ends of the thread back through.

The strand was originally 22" with a ball clasp.

The strand after restringing the first time with an orbit clasp, but missing the two challenging pearls.

I actually liked that length, but I wanted to use all the pearls, since I bought them. After redrilling and restringing again. The orbit clasp added one pearl length to the necklace.

Since I couldn't simultaneously wear them and restring them, I decided it was a amethyst kind of day.

 

[Katbran]

I just love the setting on your Amethyst ! Love love love !

 

[lmgarden]

Very lovely amethyst setting! Is that a diamond or a seed pearl on the lower left side? My iPad doesn't show it clearly...

 

[kalmen22]

Bweaves I love your chain. This is the one that can connect to various pendants? Did I remember wrongly?

 

[KaySD]

I love that amethyst! (My birthstone, so I am partial.) The setting is so unique and beautiful. You have a great jeweler.

Today I wore the same 3 Kamoka Tahitians on a leather cord that I posted a couple days ago. While I was picking figs, the knot became loose on the leather cord and all 3 pearls fell into my gathered figs (fortunately I was home when it happened!). They looked so lovely together sitting on the kitchen counter, I couldn't resist taking a photo of the 'miniature figs' with the real figs!

 

[BWeaves]

Thank you. That's a diamond with the amethyst. Yes, that's one of my chains with the swappable pendants. They connect at the edges of the pendant with a really cool clasp that is almost invisible.

LM, That's a work of art. I thought it was a famous still life for a minute. Love it.
And I love the pearls with the chambray shirt, too. I love pearls and denim or anything dyed with indigo. They just go.

 

[JerseyPearl]

lmgarden...your figs!!! Now I understand your name. BTW, our figs aren't ripe just yet...but maybe by the weekend. Try them grilled with gorgonzola cheese...delish! And those Kamokas...TDF!

BWeaves, happy to help out a pearl sister in need! I am so glad the drilling went smoothly. And wow, a strand of those beautiful pearls...my new want/need/want.

 

[KaySD]

I love figs, and that trio looks particularly delish!

 

[CathyKeshi]

lmgarden, that is s brilliant still life! Fresh figs, sigh ... very hard to come by here ... sooner or later the frost gets the plants

 

[Katbran]

Lmgarden- what a beautiful photo !!

 

[Sanippy]

BWeaves - beautiful blue pearls! They are stunning. The amethyst necklace is TDF.

Lmgarden - beautiful photo. How lucky that they just happened to fall into a bowl of soft figs!

 

[BWeaves]

LM: I can't get over how much I love those three pendants together on a leather cord.

1. I would have never thought of using more than one pendant at a time.
2. I would have thought the bails clashed, but I really love the different bails together. I really like the way that looks.
3. Must buy more pearls.

 

[lmgarden]

Thank you Kay, Katbran, Hanadama and Cathy!!! I'd love to send you all a load of figs - we have a surplus!
