[CortezPearls]

Sorry to hear your mother-in-law is not feeling well jeg please send her our wishes for a speedy recovery.

Beautiful necklaces...those ovoidal-baroque shapes and the combination of lighter and true-golds is mesmerizing
The lovely little keshis look great with the golden pearl

One of my favorite pieces from Margaret of Simply Adorned.

Jeg, I'm sorry to hear that your mother-in-law isn't doing well. I hope you visit to the family cabin was helpful. (You look wonderful in that combo of GSSP rope, pendant and tiny pearl necklace.)
CathyKeshi...what everyone else said about your SoC necklace. Just beautiful. I hope you have many occasions to wear it.
Eolian...your photo looks like an ad for a luxury resort..the terrace, the sea, the mountains, and you looking like you just rose from the sea wearing pearls!

 

[TriciaS]

Two recent purchases from Cortez Pearls...a shell pendant and a daisy "spinner" ring. Simple for summer.

 

[CortezPearls]

It's just Monday and it is already a splendid start of a "Pearl Week" here at our Forum
eolian pearls really nice pendant...fresh as the Seabreeze!
TriciaS that pendant was an inspiration of mine all the way back to 1994 when I started with the first pearls at the "farm"...and it evolved over time until the design you enjoy today!
One of those evolutionary steps was "Conny" (kind of "Shelley" in Spanish) by my dear (departed) friend Carlos Cabral...I will honor his memory sharing this piece of jewelry he made with a Cortez pearl.

 

[TriciaS]

Oh, I'm glad I have a design you had a hand in, Douglas! The "Conny" pendant is lovely...the multiple layers give it great depth.

 

[86Corvettegirl]

So sorry to hear about your mother in law, Jeg. Hope the cabin trip gave you some comfort.

 

[86Corvettegirl]

Beautiful necklace, Eolian. Perfect for warm days!

Beautiful choices, TriciaS. I love SOC pearls.

 

[eolian pearls]

Thank you for your kind words TriciaS, Douglas and 86C!

TriciaS, your new SoC pieces are lovely! Beautiful design and very special pearls, wonderful wonderful pieces!!! There is just something dreamy about the SoCs....

 

[BWeaves]

I'm out of the loop for a few days and I come back to beautiful pearls. Keep them coming!

 

[86Corvettegirl]

Cloudy day so I kept it simple with Autore SS earrings & SS octo enhancer.

 

[Charlotta]

jeg, you do have the best golden south seas. I hope that you are mother in law feels better soon.
@eolianpearls, gorgeous tincup. Very summey and is great with that wiew.
TriciaS, beautiful pendant and ring.
CortezPearls, the Conny pendant looks great.
​​​​​​​@86corvettegirl, that octopus is beautiful.

 

[CortezPearls]

Oh 86Corvettegirl I love Octopi! I'm very fond of Sherí's "Octos"...but this enhancer of yours is unique too...clean lines, modern and stylized...I LOVE IT!

BTW: Have you seen the "My Octopus Teacher" documentary on Netflix? Makes you appreciate these amazing creatures even more!

Thanks so much, Douglas, eolian, TriciaS, 86C and Charlotta!

eolian, I agree with TriciaS- you look like an ad for a lush resort. Your necklace is such a fun, light look, too!

TriciaS, oooo, love your Sea of Cortez pieces! And thank you for sharing “Conny” with us, Douglas!

86C, I like the graceful squiggle of your octo. Douglas, I was fascinated by the little common octopus from “My Octopus Teacher.” I never realized their intelligence.

Vietnamese Akoya mix knotted with pearls from Hong Kong. Coral and Akoya necklace, and SS and Akoya mix necklace from Kojima.

That’s the truth, miss a week at the most and it’s like rain in the desert to come back. It’s a beautiful day here (although a tad warm, at 80*, more or less kidding), but the sun is shining, the humidity is low and my knees got a shot of cortisone, and so, pearls!

pearlescence necklace, and fun drops from a thrift store.

 

[Charlotta]

jeg, those mixed akoya strand are gorgeous. Love those blue, gold and ivory colors together.
@lisac, gorgeous look. The luster on that strand is great.

 

[lisa c]

Charlotta, You’re very kind. How about that steel-wool-hair look at the neck? Lol. Call it the “surprising ways red hair goes bad with age”. I’m with jeg, just, the editing is not being done today.

I’m sorry about your MIL, jeg. I love how you called her “Mom” in your posts. True love.

I love octopi,too, Douglas. Sheri's octos are my favorites with this one from SauveJewelry on Etsy a close second. Sheri was the artistic talent in creating Kanaloa & she also created my blue ring Octo, Luna. I have another enhancer from Sauve using a very blue Tahitian with little blue diamond eyes. They comfortable, versatile, & easy to wear in hot weather.
My Octopus Teacher was a wonderful video. Their intelligence is amazing. In my diving years, I often was able to interact with octopi & loved it. Thank you for your kind words.

 

[86Corvettegirl]

Thanks, Jeg & Charlotta, for the octo love

Jeg, those blues & Goldens look fantastic!!! I love the combination of those colors. So summery!

Lisa c, your pearls just glow against your skin. Just beautiful.

 

[CathyKeshi]

WOW, I don't know where to start! Thank you all again for the kind words about my necklace . eolian pearls, that photo on your terrace is a dream to me; haven't seen the ocean in nearly 2 years. That will get remedied soon ... Jeg, those blues, golds, creams are just divine! Octopi ... once I met one (Monterey Bay Aquarium) in person, I could never eat one; the intelligence in the eyes, and what I watched that creature do that day was stunning. Lisa C, you look marvelous in those summer glow pearls!!! Ah, Douglas what a beautiful pendant, Carlos was a wonderful artist and a dear human; I feel very lucky to have known him for way too short a time. Here's a pendant Carlos hand forged, that Douglas hand carried to a ruckus for me. Carlos later made me a pair of custom earrings to go with but I couldn't find the photo, sigh. SOC of course I treasure this one.
