Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[BWeaves]

Wow, those boys are big and beautiful. Amazing pearls.

Last night was our last symphony concert for the season. I went all out and dressed to the nines with my "big boys". I am wearing my very first Tahitian strand bought 15 years ago in Hong Kong before going on a cruise. They are peacock and 12-15+mm. The second strand is a relatively current purchase from a gem show I attended a few years ago. The pearls on this necklace are also 12-15mm. Now I will succumb to 95+ heat here in the south and play it casual. However, I will wear pearls almost everyday but a little more sedate.

These are gorgeous!! I love the 2 strands together!!!

So beautiful! Love the combo!

Well it doesn't take long to fall behind .. somehow I missed this thread for a couple of weeks!!

GemGeek - That ring is gorgeous and the photos of the pearls... they are quite stunning !!

86C - Those pearls and that ring..you look fabulous !!

jeg - Love the earrings ! And that necklace is a real favourite !!

Luvglitz - Well you did bring the big boys out to play !! what a showstopper combo !!

I'm enjoying all the wonderful treasures lately! Welome to P-G, Jess!

 

[jesskat]

Welcome, Jesscat! I love your Tahitian. I also love Kauai- you were up near some of my favorite beaches on earth.

Kauai is just magical. I'd live on the North Shore if I could. Maybe when I retire and have less people anchoring me in the mainland. I *love* your keshi necklace from Kojima! The designs there just blow my mind.

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcomes Once upon a time, I would say that I would NEVER wear pearls - turns out it's just the white freshwaters that seem to always wind up as bridesmaid's necklaces that I wasn't into I'm loving learning about all the types and colors!

86C, that ombre strand is absolutely to die for, and I love that ring as well!

Thank you, Jesskat & Katbran. I have wanted an ombré strand for years. When I saw this one last year, I could not resist. I'm working on getting a 26" ombré strand to wear with this one. And the ring is my favorite GSS ring. I also have the same ring in white gold with blue sapphires & a silvery Tahitian. These two rings have become my go to rings.

Thanks Gemgeek, 86C, Katbran and jesscat!

It has been unusually warm here. Even though it’s a few days away from officially being summer, I’m celebrating early with one of my summer/tropical favorites. Blue Tahitian strand with Monili orchid clasp and abalone pearl center from PP.

 

[BWeaves]

OOOOOOO, JEG. I always wondered what those Monili clasps looked like. Gorgeous.

It's horribly hot today in Florida, so The Swan makes its entrance this year. Kojima drop earrings.

So after years of admiring Etienne Perret's Ceramique bands, I finally lost enough weight to wear one. (Since you can't size ceramics) I adore all of his designs, but this simple girly pink band makes my heart sing. And the 3mm size stacks nicely.

Stunning rings and pearl. I enjoyed reading about the purloined pearls. I want to congratulate you on your weight loss and your reward is that gorgeous pink ring! Way to go! You must be thrilled!

 

[CathyKeshi]

Jeg, that Monil orchid clasp is stunning, as are your Tahitians. The clasp is much prettier than I imagined it; something just glowing about the shade of gold and the texture.

 

[86Corvettegirl]

That orchid clasp is spectacular & really accents the pearls for a beautiful look.



I love this. Yes, even though it's not officially Summer yet, it's incredibly hot here in Ga. I wear a lot of pendants or tin cups when it's really hot.

 

[jeg]

Thanks so much, BWeaves, Cathy and 86Corvettegirl! I really love this piece...

 

[newberry]

Jeg your necklace is stunning. I hope you do another show and tell this year at the ruckus!

 

[jeg]

Thanks, Newberry! I hadn’t planned on bringing a lot of extras with me, but if there’s anything in particular you’d like to see, let me know and I’ll pack it!

 

[Purranha]

Thanks, Newberry! I hadn’t planned on bringing a lot of extras with me, but if there’s anything in particular you’d like to see, let me know and I’ll pack it!

OMG Jeg I have a few requests, please!
The ombre Tahitian from Kojima with a larger drop in there.
The SoC tincup also from Kojima.
There are more requests but that's a start!

 

[CathyKeshi]

Hi Jeg ... here's my wish I could see it ... Uh, Everything? Okay, okay ... how about: Ombre Tahitians from Kojima, SOC Tin Cup from Kojima, the Sea Glass Tahitian necklace (I'm planning on dragging you, ever so gently, straight to Sarah and beggin her to make me something similar LOL) ...

 

[KMFDallas]

I simply love my Ombre Strand

 

[BWeaves]

Yesterday I wore my Judy Jetson necklace and yellow gold Mikimoto huggies.



It's really getting too hot, humid and rainy to wear pearls here. I'm bummed. I had to resort to silver today, so I didn't sweat sunscreen all over my jewelry. Silver is easy to clean the sunscreen off. Pearls, not so much.

 

[jeg]

Ahahaha! Ok, I have started my list, Purr and Cathy! Cathy I’ll have to show you that strand against different colors. It can read silver gray, but it has more color to it depending on what I wear, and lighting , of course.

BWeaves- I always love to see your Judy Jetson and Swan. Artsy, cool looks!
