Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[jeg]

Thanks so much, JerseyPearl and Luvglitz! These pearls really love natural light, but I haven’t been able to really capture the glow.

 

[86Corvettegirl]

Fabulous pearls, everyone! You all are looking so spectacular!!!

Jeg, those blue Tahitians are breathtaking!!!

 

[Charlotta]

Your new blue Collins strand is so stunning jeg It looks like the ocean. And like the ocean cannot decide what shade of blue it is and therefore changes all the time. From stormy deep blue to a more cheerful metallic teal. Even though you say that you cannot capture the glow, it's mesmerizing. It looks different in every photo you take. Truly a masterpiece.

eolian pearls Wow, your new RW tahitian studs and keshis are soooo beautiful, and your Druzy Ts are so lustrous!!!

jeg Haha, despite those Kojima GSS calling to me, I am vacationing on Ban Island for a bit after some impulse Kamoka purchases But oh my goodness, your blue Collins strand is seriously breathtaking!!! What a treasure! I love the abalone styling, too

Thank you so much, 86C, Charlotta, and SurfnSci! SurfnSci, I’ve been on my way to Ban Island more times than I can count, but I keep getting distracted and jump off the boat. Charlotta, you nailed the description! The ocean is a perfect descriptor. It’s deep and blue, and flashes mostly aqua in natural light, then shades of tealy green with the right clothes. I have been wearing it all week. Promise to make a change tomorrow. Wearing it with a fun pendant I bought from a street artist in San Francisco.

LOL Jeg NOOOOOOOOO don't change the blues just yet .... LOVE it with the abalone smile
Beautiful pearls everyone!
I slipped on the dock getting on the ferry to Ban Island ... Walter got me on the next ferry

 

[CortezPearls]

Oh sweet Lord! That pearl necklace is truly special...made me remember a night dive (Scuba) I had in the Caribbean so many years ago...and the pendant is quite cute!

Oh Jeg the blue unicorn is incredible in every photo!!!! To me it looks like something out of the movie “Avatar” - so so LUSH!!!!

Thank you all for your compliments on my new keshis and studs. So so happy with them! Another pic to show the different colors, happy to have them both in my family!

We have crazy hot weather here and it is (almost) impossible to wear pearls so I tried with this light version - a 0,5mm wire and my first pastel blue pearl from Rangiroa that started it all...with

my favorite triple pearl earrings from Margaret of Simply Adorned...

 

[jeg]

Thank you, Cathy! It certainly won’t be the last... And thank you, Douglas and eolian!

Eolian, those silvery blues in your earrings, and that beautiful pendant...! That was a good start, and big enticement for more to come! Earrings are great for hot weather. Strands don’t last long at all around my neck if I’m not indoors during hot weather.

I bought a few other things from the artist in San Francisco. I added pearls to the round earrings and haven’t decided whether or not to add pearls to the longer pair or leave them alone. I also bought a purse from a leather artist. I was watching him as we were eating dinner outside and my eyes went right to the bag. So unique. Couldn’t resist even though I don’t even carry purses or bags.

A beautiful evening last night to hop the ferry across the Sound. MSC is in town and is hiking around the.Olympic Peninsula, so I boarded the ferry and met her for dinner. She had some fun new projects for show and tell (doh, why did I not take pictures!) with little scrap metal pieces. Loved seeing her work and hearing about her inspiration. I was also so entertained by her field project studying, hmmm... I think they were Allegheny woodrats. I do not know my rats... MSC, I hope you will post about the jewelry class you will be taking around the Mount Rainier area.

 

[BWeaves]

Oh, beautiful pearls everyone. I've been wearing pearls, but not photographing them.

 

[CathyKeshi]

Oooh YAY, you got to have dinner with MSC; her new jewelers pursuits are so fascinating ... and I admit to not knowing one rat from another either .

Eolian, those lovely pale BLUEs are a divine way to look cooler!

 

[86Corvettegirl]

Me, too, BW. Chris came home from the drag races this past weekend & tested positive for covid. I'm now taking care of him. Wearing pearls but no pics.

 

[Happy Huku]

Lovely to catch up with the beauties...
Best thread ever

 

[SurfnSci]

Eolian, I looove your pendant and wire chain! Those earrings are really lovely, as well.

Jeg, your new pieces from San Francisco are fabulous and the T's you added to the left earring pair look perfect and chic!

Today I wore oval T's from JNBGems and a Kamoka pearl that I mounted on a twisted gold wire setting I made.

 

[Charlotta]

eolian pearls, I can see why those triple earrings are a favorite. Such an amazing color and luster.
jeg, pretty earrings and pendant. It will be fun seeing what you do with them.
SurfnSci, those oval tahitians are amazing and that ring looks great. Did you twist two wires and mad a peg with them that you could glue the pearl on? If so I have to try that.

 

[eolian pearls]

Jeg your new artsy pieces are really cool! San Francisco is one of the places on my to-visit list and now your street artist is up there too

SurfnSci your ovals are so lovely!!! I love that shape and colors are really beautiful too! And the Kamoka ring is a Wow!

Thank you all for your compliments on my blue pearls. Now I am on an aubergine kick Yesterday I received a very special pearly package where among other things was a 13mm floating aubergine teal pearl from OceansRhyme. The color is spectacular but I wasn’t sure about the chain...the pearl was just too big for a dainty chain like that...so this morning I managed to put it on 18K gold wire necklace and now I am totally happy with it! A few pics from yesterday and today with the earrings from Druzy that will go through some changed too..

I have been feeling quite down because the one pearly package with the SoC pendant from Ocean Cove and a necklace from OceansRhyme is missing...I am still hopeful that it will turn up but at this point (almost 2 months in ) I wanted to ask a little help from you my pearl friends...if you could send a positive thought to my package to find its way to me I would absolutely appreciate it and be very thankful! Thank you all in advance! Wishing everyone a lovely weekend!

 

[Charlotta]

eolian pearls, I will send good postage thoughts to your package. I think that during the last 10 years of buying pearls I only lost to packages. One with pearl glue and one with a tahitian strand, both from China. Probably your package is just detained somewhere and will arrive soon. Sometimes I have to wait for three months for my packages. Those pearls that have arrived are gorgeous, especially that aubergine teal pearl.

BWeaves, 86C, and Happy Huku, I’m happy you stop by even if you don’t have pics to post. It’s nice to know you are out there! 86C, yikes! Take care and I hope you do not get sick yourself.

CathyKeshi, were your ears burning? Your name came up because I was wearing my bracelet made of the Tahitian keshi you had gifted me.

Thank you, SurfnSci, Charlotta, and eolian! SurfnSci, pretty new strand and ring!! I hope you had a great experience with JNB. On my part, Jun has been so nice to work with. Eolian, I am sending you extra positive pearly postal package vibes. How disappointing to be somewhere in the unknown. I just hope they are not permanently lost. I do love your new pearls, though. The floating pearl is a style I do not have and I’ve seen so many pretty ones here. Hmmmm....

Two Tahitian and Tahitian keshi ombré strands from Kojima. The bracelet is made of J. Hunter pearls from a PP Ruckus.
