Very nice pearls! Cees does have a gift, in my opinion, for selecting the best color!
Since this strand is so colorful, I like the idea of a statement clasp along with it. I like my salt to sparkle a tad...

That's a gorgeous strand!!! I'm for a statement clasp. I'm not sure about spacers unless you want the necklace to hang longer.
Thanks everybody! Im very pleased with it. Now just have to wait till statement clasp done n will arrange n see. If its better with or without it, better with spacers or not. It does tho adding length n thats what im concern about. Because without it its already long enough for me. Thought it would be a choker like but its longer after i tried neckshot. I guess this is the risk for being a short girl with short neck. Only 4ft10 here hahaha. Everything will be long. Here r a few temp neck shots. Lights arent good because its cloudy! Typical Australian spring! Its 30 degreec C!
Btw I just got colored gems, purple cabochon amethyst, green diamond cut peridots , blue diamond cut topaz, red garnets n orange trilion cut citrines and light blue cabochon quartz I think. Theyre just small and I want to incorporate those for my fijians n the blue baroque as pendants or earrings. Ill post some pics later on!

Did you know tourmaline gems ? It's a nice gem, which you can find in any natural colours, pink, peach, green, even unique special kinds of incrédible blue, in "elbaïte" variety.
Thank you Katbran! Good thing bout being lil, all pearls look big on me. Told Cees my next strand will be 15 to 17 mm graduated hahaha! He get a laugh out of that!

I really like the length on you...maybe you will need to pull off one or two pearls from the ends to accommodate the spacers. Personally, I do love the added sparkle of a spacer with diamonds or gemstones.

Red lipsticks!
Thanks everybody!
Since everybody is so fascinated with the red lipstick Ill post another pic with red lips hahaha! And the lipsticks that are responsible for it! Actually its more like a liquid lip paints. Its Revlon and Loreal. Very high def and not expensive. I forgot the price but its about 15 Aussie $. Red is my fave color btw. I like red red super red. More eye popping for my darker skin color. Ohhh don't start asking how many red dresses n red shoes I have...

Tourmaline is not a australian gem... You have unique opals, it's enough ...
I have found for you an indian shop, with several sellers for "melon d'eau" tourmalines and other, somes are drilled as pearls, not expensive:
https://dir.indiamart.com/impcat/watermelon-tourmaline-gemstone.html?biz=20
For tourmaline faceted pearls :
https://www.gemselect.com/french/group/gemselect.php?a=0&g_type=85&drilled=Drilled,Half-Drilled
To buy blue tourmalines, all coming from Brazil, you can search on Google "Indicolite (or paraïba) tourmalines", you will find gorgeous gems, but not for my purse !!
Maybe Lady_Disdain, member of this site and living in Brazil, will know better plans than mine.

Anyway saw ur links! Thanks so much, I like the emerald cut watermelon tourmaline. As the briolette ones, not really into those. They look cheap haha. I like cheap things that look expensive! You know...the woman in me...

I understand you... Anyway, it's seem s that womans do the greatest number of members, here. It's interesting to share ours different points of view.
About tourmalines, you can find any not too much expensive, specially watermelon specie. Only deep blue is out of game.
If you want to find fire opals I like too, you will have more luck in Mexico. It's the first country to produce that gem. Anyway, it's nearly the only one to do that, I think. This kind of stone is not at all found in same grounds than australian opals, but in volcanic rocks.
