These! Sorry if it's redundant, but I couldn't resist posting here as well :) Pearl Paradise, Lynsey, John, Hisano, Chenai ... outstanding!So. The glamour photos speak best, but here's what you see: A while back the lovely Chenai helped me select a carved Tahitian pearl from a Pearl Paradise sale. A lot of thinking, and a long while later, and a LOT of help led to this set :) My criteria were: Pearls to compliment the beautiful carved Tahitian pearl, a design and bail that would look good on all sides when worn short or long, and something DIFFERENT from the usual 3 pearl/3 diamond setting, yet could be worn with anything ... and Lynsey took over. She pulled out all the stops, choosing fabulous options, interpreting what I didn't even know I wanted, with grace, patience and good humor ... across the country no less :) A bit of input from Hisano, a custom bail from John to echo the shape of the carved pearl, 2 "option" pearls saved for Blossom earrings and a TRUE Colors glamour photo and ... FedEx! Pearl Paradise, you are THE BEST !!!

P.S. Isn't the tiny little Tahitian keshi pearl at the top the most adorable thing ever ???

Oh my!!! What a stunning set! And yes, that little keshi pearl is just adorable! Congrats and enjoy!
 
CRDKeshi - Congratulations on your new set! Great design and I think you'll be able to wear it everywhere! Each pearl is beautiful but together they sing! Can't wait to see neck and ear shots.
 
Pkinnew, Thank You ... this set does sing a song, and so far, I really like the melody :)

LitGeek ... THANKS! When that little keshi came onstage, it just sat up and said "Hello there everyone, I'm running this show now ..." LOL
 
Haven't worn much jewelry the past week because of a ton of housework and weird errands.

But today is a day off from all that, and I will be having a wonderful girls day with my mom and sister. So I decided to wear my silver keshi tin cup.

ckrickett ... LOVE those little silver clouds ... so pretty!

Frost Me, those earrings are just a beautiful color and luster ... classic, versatile and perfect!

ckrickett - Your keshis are so light and fluffy! Just perfectly casual!

Frost Me - Your Tahitian studs are such a great color and look gorgeous on you!

baby monster - What a great coin pearl pendant! What metal is the initial in?
 
Pkinnew, thanks. The initial is silver.
 
BM. Is that coin initial from Honors?
 
CRDKeshi, that set is really beautiful and unique! May I ask what is the body colour of the pearls? Please post neck shots.

Ckrickett lovely tin cup. So impressed that you made it!

Frost Me those studs are lovely. Do they match your baroque Tahitians?

Baby monster, very elegant combo!
 
11-12mm FWPs on YG and emerald studs.

Yes, it's from Honora.
 
BM, I saw the presentation the last time Joel was at QVC. Pretty!
 
Baby Monster, that pearl initial pendant is very pretty ... like a full moon :)

Tucks, I am lost when describing "body color" and "orient" ... the photos though glamour, have captured the true color of this set VERY accurately. To me, the overall body effect is light to medium silvery teal greens; there are a few places where out of the corner of my eye, I see hints of copper and rose on the top carved area on the drop, and rose and blue hiding on that little keshi, but I'd call those overtones ... sorry I'm not more help. Pearl Paradise would have exact words, I'm sure :) I like your swingy pearl and emerald earrings ... I'm sure they're lovely in person!

I just checked the site and saw that they are selling a similar design. The version i have is from few years back and sold out pretty quickly. I guess they had a lot of requests to bring it back.
 
Thanks Frost Me and CRDKeshi.

Pirard, those metallic earrings are beautiful and really look great on you.
 
Thanks Tucs!
 
Thank you CRDKeshi and Pkinnew! Tucs thanks, yes I would say a great match! They are a little lighter than my silvery green body strand and look great with that strand. They also look great with the dark green body peacock strands as well. I couldn't be happier.
 
Pirard, loving the color in your new drops, I want them… :Up_to_something:
 
Hi lovely ladies, I've been meaning to post for ages- I love admiring all your beautiful pearls.
These are my 9-10 mm freshwater metallic drops from PP. They are on yellow gold hooks. I wore them to the beach yesterday & felt very glam!
And no, I did not go swimming with them on.....
I had wanted to try out the dangle style, as I'm more of a stud person, ( and they were relatively inexpensive), I really, really, like these.
The lustre is beautiful & I am always surprised by the weight of real pearls. I feel like pearls are my secret treasure!

Thanks for coming and posting, dreamon. Love your white drop earrings. I love the drop shape, and it is the most wonderful shape for earrings. Such an elegant look you had! :appl:
 
Pearls at the beach? Perfect!
 
Tucs, Pirard and dreamon - Thanks for sharing your beautiful pearl earrings! Very flattering on each of you!
 
welcome dreamon! :wavey:

also love those earrings!!!!!!!!
 
I love the look of pearls with winter clothes! Wore my 9.5-10mm freshadama studs today.

Hi Dreamon ! Love the drops ! I agree with FlyGirl..favourite shape for earrings..or pendants for that matter. I just love drops !!

Babymonster - love that pendant. We don't get the same show here (at least I don't think we do) so I've never seen that before. Is the initial carved in or is that some sort of inlay?? Very cool

Frost Me - Your Tahitians are gorgeous .. such luster ! And I love the size on you !

ckrickett - Housework !! Well that's no fun at all !! You certainly deserve an outing with your lovely floaty tin cup !! Looks perfect on you..I'll bet you get a lot of wear from it . :appl:
