Thank you ladies!!! Haven't brought Emily Thorn out for a spin in a while since I've been wearing my harvest strands and multi-color ombres so that was really fun!
And yes I'm so in love with Battah's creation, and as I posted in the Ruckus treasure thread, she overlaid the bottom with crushed gemstones to reinforce the structural integrity and durability of the flower petals, and I LUV LUV LUV pieces that has hidden beauties in unexpected places!
Ooohhh, and, for you ladies where "more is still not enough" and "rings can never be too big" isn't your thing, she makes single flower hydrangea rings in different sizes, earrings, and tin-cup stations too! You can provide her your own special pearls, or she has a stash of little h keshis, and other pretty freshies she can use!

Love, love, love those flower rings, Battah!
One thing the ruckus (and primarily the pre-ruckus packing) reminded me of is that I must wear my beloved pearls more often!!! But what to wear when you are cleaning house and taking the cat to the vet? My souvenir strand from my Kamoka visit 11 years ago seemed just right!

BW, you look lovely. I just love your Hamataschen. It's so unique. Where did you find it, if I may ask?

Kojima's sister site, Pacific Pearls. I bought the Swan and the Hamantachen from Pacific Pearls and then had my jeweler create pendants from the pearls.
The "matching pair" to the Hamatachen is still on the Pacific Pearls website:

I thought about making earrings out of them, but they are too big for my ears, so I didn't buy them.
The Pacific Pearls website has a lot of vintage pearls. Not vintage necklaces, but pearls that have been sitting in their vault for a few decades. Like Biwa Pearls. Then then also have some recent Kasumi pearls.

Thanks!
It does have a bluish cast but I think some of the blue in the first photo was from my top. Here it is with a white top, and outdoors where the greenish overtones show up.
I am sooooo jelly
PD !!

((Frost Me)) Glad you like it!
I've had this mixed strand of SS and Tahitians that needed restringing, but the holes were all over the place size-wise, so I strung it on beading wire with Beadalon gray silicone bumpers, and Beadalon " scrimps" (beads with a little screw that hold the wire in place when tightened). The necklace is very comfortable.

I decided that my lavender pendant admin present looks best with my little Hanadama pearls. The color is not quite as dark as it seems in the photo, but you can see that the top has a band of blue. It also has a cute little bump on the bottom.
Thank you to Hisano and Jeremy -- and everyone who participates on our awesome forum!

GemGeek, I love that we have sister lavender pearls! I'll have to try wearing mine with my metallic white FW studs.

It's fun having sister pearls! I also have metallic white earrings, although I'm not sure where they are - probably in the dread (keyless) safe deposit box! It's my habit to put most of my stuff away before I go on trips. Now, even more, I need the box so that if there is a fire, I won't lose a lot at once. It has been my habit to rotate through my jewelry so that I only have some of it with me or in the house.
