bsomlo - Your earrings are definitely keepers! I think they'll be fun and sexy to wear!

SMC - Your Edison pendant really does look like a globe and I'm sure it'll be even better in person!

Kay - You can call me a "snaggle tooth tiger"! I picked up that Edison pendant as well as the keshi petal torsade. I really look forward to getting them!

pkinnew! So glad that someone on the forum snagged the giant Edison! Please post pictures of your goods when you get it! I'm curious to see how it looks like IRL.

Snaggle Tooth Tiger, that Edison pendant is one major statement piece. Was it the Metallic White "Petal" Keshi Torsade Necklace that you got? I looks very pretty and summery and I love the interlocking silver clasp. Neckshots of both are mandatory!

I was hoping somebody on here got the petal keshi necklace. I hope you post pictures when it comes in! I was tempted by that piece.

Hi All!

Kay and SMC, you're too fast! I was toying about getting those goodies! I am excited to see your neck shots

I bought the 35in fwp multicolor last week (first day of sale!)

Since then I have bee checking PP's website non-stop!

I also ordered Tahitian tin-cup which (hopefully) will be shipped today! I ordered them last week.

I am on the process of ordering some earrings to match with my newly acquired earrings, the list just keeps going! I really need to stop checking their website!

I need your opinion on this....How would you compare the wssp, freashadama , Edison white and metallic fwp white? I need some for earrings.

here are the photos:

If you're looking to match your multicolor, I'd ask PP to match up a pair of Freshadamas or metallic whites to the strand. They're really good that doing that. WSSP are $$$, and IMHO, worth it if you want really big satiny white studs. I don't know much about Edisons but they are very very large to me and would make a huge statement if worn as earrings (not sure if you want that). Freshadamas and metallics won't be as big as WSSP and Edisons. What sizes studs are you looking for?

I have 9.0-10.0mm Freshadama studs to match my 9.0-9.5 Freshadama necklace. Here's a picture of them together so you can see relative size on a person:

My globe Edison shipped today! I am so excited to see it IRL!

Yay! I bet it will be gorgeous IRL with those blue and green tones.

Relysa, it was Pkinnew who got the other Edison, not me. The long multicolor looks great on you, both long and doubled. What diameter are the pearls?

 

[relysa]

doubledouble -- I had some questions on the rope you had made for your fiancee but don't want to hijack this thread. I'll PM you on the "other" forum.

Looking forward to seeing pictures of you wearing your new 100" rope!

DD , you really got a good deal there for a 100 inch rope and the pearl size are just right for all the styles you've came up with especially the braid. I am jealous!!

Thanks Kay!

The diameter is 9.5-10.5mm, I got the strand with the most lavender on it

Thank you for showing me your fwp set, they are a perfect match!

I was looking at the metallics but the edisons caught my eye So I requested photos of Edison pairs and I ordered it though it was way too big for the size of the fw strand I have (I can wear alone and don't have to wear it with necklace all the time) I just love big earring studs!. It was shipped together with my Tahitian tin cup and I will be getting it soon!

Right now , I am searching for Tahitian earrings. I am now torn between cherry and green tones! I haven't seen both against my skin. So, I am not sure which one will look better. hayyy! pearl addiction problem! LOL!

I love big Edisons too - please post pictures of your Edisons when you get them. They're on my list too.

I have blue-green baroque Tahitian studs which I love. Jeremy actually did a blog post on them here: http://blog.pearlparadise.com/2013/12/nontraditional-tahitian-pearl-pairing-that-works/

Here's a picture of them on my ear:


From my experience, you can get a lot more color with baroques at a lower price point. Blue and green are my favorite colors so it's definitely a no-brainer for me when choosing what colors I wanted.

I will surely post photos when I get it, hopefully today!

Those colors are just gorgeous on you!!!! My tin cup T's has green tone to it, just love that look! I will know if the color suits me when I tried it on. But I also want to see the cherry ones on a warm skin tone like me. Have you tried T's with different overtones?

I bought my grandmother the largest strand of Tahitians I could afford at the end of last year. I documented my experience here: [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/poll-please-vote-on-your-favorite-tahitian-strand.195736/page-2']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/poll-please-vote-on-your-favorite-tahitian-strand.195736/page-2[/URL]

Extra pictures:



The ones I ended up going with were dark peacocks. The thing is, if the base color of your Tahitians are dark, it's often hard to see overtones on round Tahitians. I couldn't get overtones to show up on my grandmother's pearls unless I was in the perfect diffused lighting. That's why I ended up going with baroques for my studs - because I wanted more color.

Thanks for sharing your photos! You are definitely a very sweet and thoughtful grandchild The length is perfect on you! I love colors ,so with T's I would love to see more variations of color than dark ones.

Can't wait to see that "Globe" pendant, SMC! I had no internet most of last week; traveling ... managed to get reception on the cell for a few minutes and saw that pendant, but lost the internet connection or I'd have tried for that one

 

[SMC]

According to their blog post, new pieces are going to come out every Tuesday morning! That means that I'll be sitting at my computer on Tuesday morning refreshing pearlparadise.com instead of working.

Yeah, I had that same thought about how little work I will get done next Tuesday morning while hitting refresh every 2 minutes, lol.

My globe Edison came. It's beautiful! There is more purple than I thought there would be, but overall, it's lovely. The surface of the pearl isn't as smooth as my other freshwaters or Tahitians either and there are more ridges. Definitely a very interesting piece!

 

[iguanatan]

Wowsers SMC, that edison packs a punch! It is glorious.

 

[krissy7]

Love the intense color and it is definitely a stand-out piece! I hope you really enjoy wearing it.

 

[ckrickett]

That globe is breathtaking!

 

[CRDKeshi]

SMC, that blue globe is even more amazing than I imagined; it's so big! I love the crepe silk like texture ... and the blue color is stunning ... so happy for you!

 

[bsomlo]

That is one stunning pearl!!! Wear it in good health.

Absolutely gorgeous The color is stunning!

 

[pkinnew]

SMC - Love your globe! It definitely is a gorgeous pearl!

I also received my sale pieces. Here are pictures of the 3 pearl necklace. I am struggling catching the brightness of the pear colors - the pictures look so dark! More to come!

 

[pkinnew]

Here are a few more shots (the 2nd one is the back of the pearl). I think I need to try outside sunshine shots next! Oh & I did received the petal keshis and they are beautiful. I tried capturing those and will try again maybe later today.

 

[pkinnew]

A few more neck shots!

 

[SMC]

pkinnew - your Edison is lovely! It's so large and purple, almost like a giant glowing grape. Thanks for sharing!
