Oh boy… so sorry to disappoint but my method of storage has graduated from shoe boxes to Rubbermaid. I am currently in the process of changing out anything stored in the colorful silk pouches to cotton/muslin bags. I’ve always been worried about the silk pouches but just haven’t gotten around to replacing all of them. I haven’t had any problems with them, but I know if they experience any kind of moisture, the color will bleed and definitely will bleed onto the pearls and stain them.

Gorgeous, Jeg. I love Fiji's.
I have outgrown the stacking boxes I keep my pearls in. I keep some of them in individual pearl boxes & envelopes but I really need to find a better way to organize & store them. I'm running out of space.

Thanks, SurfinSci. Your blues are beautiful on you. Great luster.

We had someone on our team a few years back who made them in her spare time. Hisano still keeps most of her pieces in them.

I just love blue akoya colors! They really morph with whatever you're wearing. This strand is a really nice assortment of purple/lavender overtones. Love it with your skin tone and the robin's egg blue shirt.

Always a pleasure to stop by here! So many beauties since I last posted!

@Purranha I always gasp when I see a picture of yours! Such beautiful and versatile pieces, I can never choose which one I love the most!
@SurfnSci Oh the Pearlescence Vietnamese blues...So dreamy!
@jeg Those PP vault pictures..they made me think that “Pearl Paradise“ is truly such a fitting name...I am happy to see your SoC pearls again, magical magical magical! And funny your beaded T necklace from your last post must have been an inspiration for mine, I have just finished it;-) using CMW baroques and spinel and garnet beads. I also have some pics of my T circle from @Katbran and a new circle ring ( pearl is from Julia of Etsy’s Oceanrhyme, the ring finding is from PP. It is still cold here and I dont wear pearls as often as in warmer months, I miss the feel of pearls on my skin I realize...The last new piece is a CMW “royal luster pearl” with apatite and pyrite beads.

Thank you, Jeremy (that lime green keshi…) and eolian! Eolian, all your new pieces are wonderful. I love that ring. The rings around the pearl are perfectly placed for that ring. And your new spinel and garnet strand… so colorful and fun! What a nice job you did on that. While we’re on the beaded trend, I’ll post pics of another beaded strand I made-

Posting pics from last summer of a strand I made for a pearl friend. Zircon beads and pearls from Collins Pearls.

I love all the colors, Jeg. A great necklace for Spring & Summer.

I recently converted a blue baroque akoya strand from a 3-strand to a 2-strand and used the strand I removed to make a similar necklace. Love the little sparkly beads in between. I love the Swarovski crystals, so sad they are no longer making these crystal beads.

As eolian says "Always a pleasure to stop by here!"
Love all your beautiful pearls and marvel even more when I see the full size photos when I eventually do log in.

Thank you @jeg! I am really happy with that ring! And as for the spinel rope I was considering different ootions for those colorful circles...first a bracelet, then a choker and at the end I decided to use up all the spinel I had and luckily the beads were exactly right for the necklace

I love your colorful Collins beads tin cup for your friend! Amazing colors of the pearls! That’s why I love Tahitians so...such colorful eye-candy!!! This necklace reminded me a bit of one I have, a summer piece with FW keshis and 8mm Ts and one blue akoya. I call it “Constellations” and love to play with it! I have just set a pair of CMW Ts on delicate WG earring finding to wear together with it.

@MotherOfPearlTrumpet Beatiful beautiful blues and such pretty sparkly clasp as well!!!

 

[CortezPearls]

Oh sweeeet Lord! Just dropped by and I now have to find enough tissue to clean up the drool from all those beautiful, colorful and amazing pieces of pearl jewlery!

I am definitely new here and it is so cool learning all about pearls from the posters on here! Thank you for the wonderful photos and information.

I am really happy with my new Tahitian pearl drop shape necklace from PP. I was so happy to find something in my budget that achieved this look and I think the quality is amazing for what I paid.

Ombré South Sea & Tahitians with diamond & platinum Tahitian earrings to dinner with the hubby. I also wore my WSS bracelets & my favorite Tahitian & sapphire ring. Chris will be out of town Monday on his birthday so we had his birthday dinner early.
