Yep. They're home.

If you want to read the dramatic postage fail regarding these earring/necklace sets, you can click on this link:

I have not great shots of one set. I'll post the other when I get a chance to wear and photograph them:

Pearl necklace:



Necklace worn long:



Necklace worn doubled:



Earrings:



The pearls are slightly larger than I thought they'd be, and the necklace is much longer. Doubles easily. The luster is satiny, soft and feminine. It's a terrific set and I haven't seen anyone wearing anything like this (except for Icy_Jade's cute choker on the other side of our globe). It was well worth the wait. Thanks, Catherine!!!

Lovely pieces. And what a story of their adventures. I'm sure you will enjoy these all the more for the difficulties of getting them.

Looking forward to more pictures when you are ready. :))

You guys are very sweet and supportive. Thanks!

I wore the second set today. The luster is so creamy and satiny -- such an unusual set!









I don't know which set I like more. They're both very pretty, unusual and soft.

Ooooohhh! I love these! Beautiful color and texture and I love the contrast between the rectangles and tiny rounds! And the earrings are so sweet!

You have two quite unusual pearl strands, both are beautiful and looks great on you!

This set is equally as lovely :appl: :appl: :appl: I really like how the sticks were set horizontally on the earrings and how they lay vertically on the strand ~ very chic :sun:

Did I read that you ordered two more sets?? :naughty: If you did, I look forward to seeing them!

Yay! Happy ending. Now I wish I bought a longer strand to wear doubled too!
Enjoy your new lovelies!

Btw did anyone tell you that your yellow dress is magical? It makes any pearl you wear look so good. I am jealous! :mrgreen:

I have always wondered how those biwa sticks would lay. Do they stay flat?

In this case, they lay fanned out perfectly and stay that way!
