heartofawareness: Wow, you're starting at the top. Those Kasumis are gorgeous.​

JEG: Beautiful ombre's!

 

[CatMom]

Congratulations, heartofawareness! Wow, what a gorgeous first strand! You really started at the top. It is so so beautiful and I know you will enjoy wearing it.

Wearing my two ombre strands from Kojima again. (SS and Tahitian) This time, I extended the longer one slightly.

I love your ombre strands jeg!

My friend, David Norman, recreated the strand & gave me such a discount that I could not say no. I don't regret getting it at all. It did put a pinch in my pearl budget but well worth it. I get so many compliments on it...
@86Corvettegirl, please post a picture of this strand for us to enjoy too!!

Finally arrived...the website photos are better than the one on me, but below are the images. I love my new ringed Tahitians. The came with paperwork from Ideal Pearl in UK and Belgium.

I wore my Kasumi today from Kojima/Pacific Pearls...this is my very first strand so it's extra special (its also the top of the winter harvest for 2022/2023). I love the play of colors with different lighting and it really drew a lot of attention at church! Great conversation piece...I highly doubt it will be my only Kasumi...this baby needs some company

It's Gorgeous @MotherOfPearlTrumpet! Love all the colors and the nice sharp luster. Enjoy it!

 

[BWeaves]

Lovely!!!!! Enjoy your new Tahitians! They're like potato chips, though. You can't have just one.

Thank you, heartofawareness, BWeaves and CatMom! Heartofawareness, that strand you are eying is beautiful. It would also layer nicely with your new strand. It would make a neck full!!! MotherOfPearlTrumpet, congratulations on your new strand of Tahitians! Enjoy!

A light day of pearls. A strand of teeny tiny Turquoise beads strung with a Tahitian, from Kojima. Worn with Aquamarine and Tahitian earrings I made.

LOVE your choice of pearls @jeg!! It's simple but gorgeous.. I especially love your earrings...WOWZA!! So nice to be able to make your own, easier on the wallet too

 

[jeg]

Thanks so much, heartofawareness! I have a lot of fun making earrings… way too much for only having two ears

I need to learn how to make my own! These are just gorgeous.

 

[jeg]

Thanks so much, CatMom! That was one of the first pairs I made. As I mentioned, I made so many for only having two ears, I can’t get to all of them! I think you would pick it up very quickly since you do such intricate needlework.

An Edison pendant from PP. A special request I made for one of Jeremy‘s Hong Kong trips. The mixed pearl rope is from Kojima, and I made the earrings and pearl chain.

 

[BWeaves]

Wow, amazing pendant. Love your version of the Evertything Bagel rope.

Today it's Beachy tin-cup and feather pendant from Kojima. Metallic drops on my Mom's earring hoops. My indigo blue dress washes out the emerald and sapphire beads, so they're not really visible. UPDATE: Retook the photos in a different part of the house at a different time of day. Lighting is better.

Pearls are so warm. Tin-cups are cooler on my neck when it's hot out. They're also easier to rinse off and dry, if I sweat.

 

[jeg]

Thanks BWeaves! And lovely pairing on you. I do like those random dangles on that beachy necklace.

Everything is super stunning @jeg and goes so well with your outfit!

 

[heartofawareness]

Today I wore my Kamoka Aubergine tahitian strand with the matching earrings. Love the plummy colors in this strand, yet, it also has overtones of coppery mauves, lavender, blues, maroon, peacock greens, deep indigo and pinks.

Just thought I would mention that I really love how consistent your pictures are @jeg...the lighting is always the same. You sure got that down pat (while I'm still floundering around trying to figure it out One day, one day...practice makes perfect, LOL!!
