Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[86Corvettegirl]

I just got back into town from the ATV park that hubby wanted to spend some time to relax & decompress. No cell service or Internet. He really needed it; work has been a bear for the past few months. No pearls for where we went. But it was fun to see old friends. Hubby is fully charged & back to work.

Jeg, I am so sorry to hear the news about your MIL passing. Will be keeping you, your husband, & family in our prayers. Hope you find comfort & strength in the coming days.

I love all the pearl posts, ladies & gent. Such beauties & treasures....Oooo-la-la!

I'm so very sorry to hear of your MIL's passing, Jeg. She sounds like a very nice person who was loved by many. May she RIP and may all who loved her feel her presence when they need her strength.

On another note, the coral pendant is beautiful. I was on a coral kick a few years ago and love carved florals in angel pink coral. Coral and pearls are a great combo!

rokor, your south sea strand is gorgeous. I don't like when it's hot either, but something tells me that you do like on a hotter climate than me. Most people would probably find sweden a rather chilly place.

jeg I'm sorry to hear about your mother-in-law's passing... my condolences

Thanks so much, Charlotta, TriciaS, Douglas, rokor, eolian, 86C, amti and Pareltje! Great to hear from you amti! I’ve always liked the look of light pink angel skin coral. I had a few pieces as a kid, including hair clips.

Rokor, the all white is a nice, breezy look. I rode a couple motorcycles in my younger days, a dirt bike and a street bike, but not a cool shirt for riding.

Japan Kasumi pearls from Kojima, with freshwater earrings I made.

Tahitian keshi from Cees with earrings I made.

 

[CortezPearls]

Good morning! jeg these keshi are simply delicious! And they look LARGE...how big is the biggest one???

 

[katkashmir]

Jeg, you are my inspiration! Thank you for posting.

 

[TriciaS]

Jeg, that kasumi necklace has such color and shimmer! And it looks like you could position the clasp any way to reveal those lovely pearls that are normally hidden.

 

[BWeaves]

JEG, my condolences about your MIL.

Your Kasumi strand is the most amazing one I've ever seen.

 

[jeg]

Thank you, Douglas, Katkashmir, TriciaS, and BWeaves!

Douglas, they are really large for keshi- 13mm and I don’t know the length mm.

Good to hear from you, Katkashmir! I hope your Ziggy is doing well. My Ziggy is getting very gray around the face.

TriciaS and BWeaves, thank you. The strand does have beautiful coloring, but I have not worn it in different directions yet. I think I need a Kasumi pendant to hang from the clasp.

A mixed SS, keshi, and freshwater rope, from Pearls By The Bay, with a metallic strand from Pacific Pearls, and earrings I made.

 

[amti]

Rokor, your SSP strand looks very lustrous and your shirt very breezy. Jeg, I had a chuckle about your shirt comment.

Jeg, gotta admire the chunkiness of your keshis, and I echo BW's comment on the Kasumi strand. Your earrings match your rope well! The colors look so spring-y! I cannot help but notice your outfits too. Not only are they all very cute, but the look very comfortable!

 

[CortezPearls]

Wow jeg 13 mm is quite large for keshi! I would dare call it a "unicorn keshi strand"!
Aloso love these 2 new ones...Oooh made me remember the "Pearls by the Bay" even in SF back in 2019. Seems like ages ago!

 

[MoonDrops]

Lovely summery looks, all! I have been offline while moving, so just catching up. Jeg, I am very sorry for your loss. Wishing everyone peaceful, healing weekends!

 

[eolian pearls]

Rokor your south sea necklace is absolutely stunning! Glowing!!! Wow, and I love your white on white look!

Jeg, so many amazing pearls as always!!! Special mention to the Pearls by the Bay rope!!! Such an amazing combination of colors and shapes and luster! Beautiful, beautiful rope!

Just a quick note that I have received the Edison strand that was a rogue purchase from about a month ago ( and will be my sister’s XMas present I am very happy with it, love love the colors! The size is 8,5 - 12,5 mm, I will string it next week. It is from an Etsy vendor called PearlRoadYW, I bought a few Edisons from her before and they were all lovely.

 

[Charlotta]

Gorgeous pearls jeg, those huge keshis are truly special.
@eolianpearls, beautiful edisons. It looks amazing.

 

[CortezPearls]

That Edison strand is superb eolian pearls the shapes, luster, color, symmetry...it's Stunning!

 

[Cees]

I always have a question when someone says these are Edisons. How could you be so sure that these come from Grace Pearls before or Edison Pearls nowadays?

 

[jeg]

Thanks so much amti, Douglas, MoonDrops, eolian and Charlotta!

Thank you, amti- I’m sure you remember from hanging out at past Ruckus’ I am all about comfortable clothes.

Haha, Douglas, I am not sure about a unicorn, but it is definitely in the pretty pony category as an unusually large size for Tahitian keshi. It hangs nicely and I love the shapes. Ahh yes! 2019... SF... PBTB! It was a blast touring the city with you, Sunseeker, BabyNurse, and KaySD! And the PEARLS!!!

eolian, a fantastic choice for a Christmas gift for your sister! Please model it before parting with it!

Cees, I think Katbran made a good analogy before about the name becoming synonymous with beautiful freshwater pearls- like all tissues being called Kleenex. Even though Edison’s and Ming have their own provenance, it has become a descriptor. But I do understand your point of view.

Keshi strands from Kojima with earrings I made. The shorter strand is from our recent visit to the studio.
