Beautiful Akoyas, SurfnSci!

I love the combinations, BWeaves! Love that dangly pendant!

The inner Tahitian necklace is from Kamoka, and the outer is from Maui Divers. Worn with earrings I wrapped.

So pretty, BWeaves! Jeg, I especially love your new Kasumi pendant!

JEG, I don't think I've seen your BBA ring before, or the dangle necklace. Love them. And I love what you did with the Fijian keshi.

I'm feeling BLUE today. The blue baroque Tahitian bird ring from SeaBeauty Shop. Dyed freshwater and akoya pearl earrings and necklaces with aquamarines are from Kojima Pearl. Worn with blue linen, of course.

Just lounging around the house and weaving today, wearing pearls, as you do. Dyed freshies with jade and gemstone beads, from Kojima. I feel very Pompeii in these earrings.

WOW! So much fun to catch up on everyone’s pearly posts! Love all the great looks!

BWeaves, I’ve seen some of your gorgeous shawls, but how do you use your rope and strap-like projects?

What kind of little shells are these? So pretty!

I feel very Pompeii in these earrings.

As well you should! I get the same vibe. They have a feel of ancient artistry to them.

Thanks MintyFresh! They are Augers and are easily found on different beaches.

Pretty colors BWeaves! Love the combinations. I think I’ve only taken a few photos of those pieces, but the necklace I’ve had since last summer, and the ring was from my visit to the Takahashi office in March.

I’m in loooooove

This ring came up for sale in Japan and I snapped it in hours. It is Mikimoto, platinum Pt950 with a 12.6mm south sea pearl, it just arrived literally and I already can’t get enough of it. It was a lot cheaper than most preowned Mikimoto rings from Japan because the ring size is quite big for the average Japanese woman, this is a US size 6. I paid £843 ($1334USD) and it arrived in just a few days via DHL Express Worldwide.

Would that be a green or silver Tahitian or somewhere in between? I look at Tahitians and, unless it is very obvious, am often confused by the color designation.

You should be holding - and sipping - a classic martini or a gibson with that ring. Very art deco like something a Tamara de Lempicka subject might wear.

That's a beautiful pearl, so clean! I like the setting, too. Are they calling it South Sea or Tahitian? I like the platinum pistachio tones.
