Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

Thank you Charlotta, Douglas and Jeg! Will definitely model the necklace once it is knotted ;-)

Cees, you are right, these are not the real Edisons, I checked with the vendor who used this name in her description of the pearls if they come from the Edison Pearls and they do not. She said (as Jeg commented) that the name Edisons is now widely used for quality bead nucleated freshwaters.

Jeg, you are having a great keshi weekSo so pretty!!!!

 

[Charlotta]

Gorgeous keshis jeg.

Thank you, eolian, Charlotta, and SurfnSci!

I have been away on another pearl playdate. Just finished loading some pics of our mini Ruckus at PP, in the other stuff thread. I came home with some wonderful pieces from little h. Tahitian earrings and a pendant with emeralds, and freshwater pearls with sapphires.

Oh Wow! Jeg...those are SPLENDID!
I LOVE Hisano's designs...the Tahitians look superb with emeralds!
And the metallics look great with the swirl design...what are the stones? Can't tell...tell us about the Mini-Ruckus!
Jeremy told me he loved it!

Holy Moley, Jeg!! I've been loving your latest pearl posts but you have really stepped up the bar. Your little h pieces are absolutely glorious, especially the emerald & Tahitian set! Absolutely gorgeous! The Tahitian & sapphire earrings are classic streamline beauties! Such fabulous finds!

It has rained every day for over a week. Cloudy, so muggy & humid, just dreary. I received a strand of mixed Akoyas from Paradise Pearl Thailand today. I bought 2 strands & had them combined into a long length, 5-7mm. Luster is very sharp & crisp with golds, blues, yellows, creams, & white shades, very clean almost round baroques. This will be a great necklace for the hot & humid conditions of Georgia. I wore it to the store with my blue akoya rope of 8mm & my PP 8.5mm necklace.

Thank you Douglas and 86C! Douglas, it is a swirl of sapphires. Wish you could’ve joined us. It isn’t an official Ruckus without you! I posted lots of pics in the Other Stuff thread!

That’s a really pretty pairing 86C! I am loving those smaller mm ropes, too, to keep things light.

jeg - beautiful choices of little h designs. Love the Tahitians with emeralds, especially those pearls on that stunning pendant.

 

[Charlotta]

jeg, beautiful little h pieces. And so fun picking them out yourself and in person.
86Corvettegirl, lovely new akoyas. I have never shopped from Paradise pearl Thailand, do they have a website?

 

[CortezPearls]

I thought they would be sapphires...I saw some blue in them

Oh well! We are still struggling with COVID all over the world, but we all seem to be ready to emerge! There will be other pearl gatherings I'm hoping!
Thank you for sharing the photos of the event...LOVED THEM!

Thank you, Charlotta. I don't think they have a website. I communicated with them through Instagram. We messaged info back & forth, pictures, & discussed how I wanted the strand to look. The shipping was fast through Fedex with the necklace arriving within a week. Sonia looked through their inventory for what I wanted in the size I was looking for. Unfortunately, they didn't have the size I wanted in enough quantity for a long necklace but they did have these. After much discussion & lots of pics, I decided to get the smaller size. I'm glad I did because the luster is awesome & the strand is light & comfortable.

Ah those Keshi just steal my heart !!

 

[Charlotta]

Thank you 86Corvettegirl, the colors of your new akoya strand is really marvellous

Oh Jeg your little h pieces are stunning!!!! Such a beautiful and unique combination of pearls and gemstones!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pendant especially!!!!

86C your akoyas are so beautiful! The luster and colors are amazing!

Charlotta you will love the Paradisepearlsthailand! Sonia is very quick to respond and provides as many pictures and videos as you need to decide. I have bought some akoyas from them ( white studs for my Mom and naturally pink ones for me) and I was very happy with them!

 

[Charlotta]

I will check them out eolian pearls. One never knows when I want graduated akoyas for some project now that I am all out of vintage strands
