PP triple lavender revamped:

I decided to make some changes to my triple lavender necklace from PP. I asked Hisano to shorten the strands and string them nested. I changed the clasp from yellow gold to white gold. And I asked her to pick six of the best pearls in various shades of lavender and make earrings to go with the necklace. 9 pearls were removed in all (I assume three per strand) and Hisano designed lovely dangle earrings with diamonds. (She actually designed three options and I chose this one -- which hadn't even crossed my mind!):







This is how the triple used to fall -- looser, lower and with gaps between the strands:

bsomlo - You amaze me with your ability to take pearls to the next step! Having the strands shorter and closely nested make them so regal and anytime diamonds and pearls are combined (especially in a sexy drop!) I am in awe! Wear them proudly and if you don't get noticed you need to move somewhere else (lol)!

Lovely! The necklace is lovely and I really like the earrings.
Do you find the long dangles work for all day wear or would they bother you?

They are not heavy, so I don't think I'd have a problem wearing them all day. I'll have to try. I just got them so haven't worn them all day yet.

bsomlo, great example what correcrt lenght means :appl: . Those earrings are from heaven. I haven't seen triple pearl combination before. I believe too, if pearls aren't heavy, they are pleasure to wear. Lovely set :love:
