I think that is a great style for these massive pearls.

Fly, I realized after I posted that it did not include a credit for the photo, just the link...I have been smitten with them since you posted that photo. I was unable to go back and edit my post to reflect that.Fly Girl|1418581660|3801011 said:Bailey1856|1418580028|3800992 said:Pirard|1418579800|3800988 said:I would set them in a necklace like this:

Agreed. That is my screen capture from Christine Lagarde's presentation to the Wall Street Journal's CEO Council annual meeting on Dec. 1, 2014. I saw a picture of her in the WSJ last week and ran to check out that necklace(s). I'm wondering if she couldn't decide which one was more beautiful, and ended up getting two necklaces?
Not a problem. When I saw those big pearls from the OP, I had the exact same thought as you. Since you beat me to the posting, I was just trying to echo your sentiment about that great necklace design.Pirard|1418586777|3801056 said:Fly, I realized after I posted that it did not include a credit for the photo, just the link...I have been smitten with them since you posted that photo.

What I've learned is that you need to be very specific about your standards. The first pair, tahitians, was fabulous; the second, deep GSS, had great luster, with 2-3 shallow pits. The third (also deep GSS) had a few more pits than I cared to see, although they were not noticeable from a foot away. I also noticed that her pearls don't have much in the way of orient. Still, her prices are reasonable, and she will tell you if the pearls are treated or natural.
If I buy these, I will hold off on repeat purchases until the summer. We're taking our vacation in Puerto Princesa, so that will give me the chance to handpick from her wares.
