Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

That’s a colorful new pendant, BWeaves, and the Akoyas are so bubbly!

Two bracelets of J. Hunter Fiji Pearls. I bought the one with the toggle clasp in Fiji, and I chose the pearls for the one with the orbit clasp on a visit to the PP vault. I randomly arranged the necklace with Fiji pearls from Cees.

Pistachio Baroque Akoya pearl necklace, pistachio Tahitian pearl stud, and blue baroque Akoya pearl necklace. Earrings from Kojima Pearl. Necklaces from Pearl Paradise. The luster is off the charts. All the pink isn't showing up in the photos. Serious soap bubbles.

Blue and green together. Perfect!

I picked up new Tahitian studs and this little sterling pendant I fell in love with the bright green pearl.

Oh, I love that leaf pendant, MMtwo! It’s perfect for this season. A friend of mine is a metal worker and is making me a leaf pendant. It won’t have a pearl attached, but I’ll wear it with a an added pearl pendant.

I always take this necklace out in the fall. They are Fiji pearls, from Cees, with the craziest shapes and colors. Worn with a J. Hunter Fiji bracelet from a visit to the PP vault after a ruckus. It’s full of bi-colored pearls that Justin called “Chocolate Kisses”. I added Tahitians to the mixed metal earrings made by an artist in San Francisco.

What a lovely pendant. The metal work and leaf design is delicate and so well-done. It looks like an elm leaf to me. Now I am musing that a round golden SSP would look nice on a red-gold leaf design for autumn . . . a fancy acer palmatum leaf.

Jeg: Both the pearls and the fit . . . chef's kiss!

Thanks so much, MintyFresh!

A very special necklace of vintage Japan Biwa pearls gifted by Fuji, at Pacific Pearls, from his personal collection. Worn with a tin cup I wire-wrapped with vintage Biwa pearls, and earrings of FW pearls. Both necklaces exhibit a variety of Biwa shapes.

Everything looks fabulous, Pomelo! Let us know when you have an announcement to make so we can celebrate with you!

Thanks so much, MIntyFresh! I love the different colors of Fiji pearls, too!

Hahaha, BWeaves- I probably do have a similar dress. I have a lot of polka dot stuff. Love the new Kasumi ring and especially love the redesigned necklace. I hope you have better luck keeping this one away from random things to snag it on. It’s beautiful!

All Tahitian pieces I assembled- a keshi bracelet and short necklace, a mixed Tahitian and beaded necklace, and Tahitians I added to mixed metal artist earrings.

I love this set - boho chic and informal and so beautiful on!

Thanks - I love the red gold leaf and GSSP idea.

Thanks so much, MMtwo!

A necklace of individual Tahitian slides, that can be arranged using any number of them, from Tahiti Pearl Market in Hawaii. I bought this several years ago, and unfortunately they no longer have their Hawaii location. Worn with a Tahitian ring I bought at one of the Hong Kong shows, and a strand I knotted with pearls from CMW.

I have a tell. I just had surgery and Merrily went with me as driver. I asked for a bit more anesthesia because I used to be ginger, so they had a bit of a time trying to wake me up afterwards. "Berna, wake up." Nothing. Then a nurse admired Merrily's necklace and ML, said, "It's a Tahitian pearl." I said, "A Tahitian Pearl" and woke up. So, we now know the magic words that get my attention.

BWeaves, I’m getting a little worried about you… your foot, finger, and now surgery? That’s a great story, though!

Rikitea strand from Cees, cherry Tahitian studs from a PP/Hong Kong Live event, and a vintage jade bracelet that was gifted to me from a dear friend.

So that is how you wear pearls with a cowlneck, lol. The shaded bracelet (red/orange!) is so pretty and unique and picks up the color in the pistachio Tahitians.

Thanks JEG. It's been a rough couple of months. And we're moving, after 26 years in the same house. I hope I will be completely healed and we'll be moved by December. It's been A LOT. I gave up teaching 2 weaving classes back in September because I just couldn't do it all. And I had to bail on other commitments, and that made me very sad. I hope I can pick everything back up sometime next year once we're settled in the new place and I'm completely healed.

No pearls today for me. That's how off I feel.
