These are GORGEOUS!!! I love the overtones and the way it sits on your neck!!! :love: :love: :love: :love:

Thank you, ckrickett! I mentioned elsewhere that I usually buy 18" strands but really like the classic look of shorter strands so decided to go with 17" this time. It's a little closer to the neck but still long enough for a lower neckline. And I saved the extra pearls in case I want it lengthened or decide to get matching earrings.

Might be interesting (if you have enough) to do a slightly longer tin cup to go with this strand (similar to what Bsolmo did with her hanadamas)

That's an awesome idea, ckrickett! Unfortunately I only have an inch worth of loose pearls. Though if I had the strand shortened to 16", the extra inch worth of pearls would be enough for a tin cup (giving me a total of 2" worth of loose pearls). Hmmm..

This was an easy fit for Bsomlo because her Hanadama strand was longer, maybe 24"?

Oh WOW! Amazing pearls, Baby Nurse! Such presence! And as always, you pair your pearls so well with your outfits! :appl: :appl: :appl:

Thank you for the kind words, Tucs! I get a kick out of matching my pearls to the right color/ neckline, as I'm sure most pearl lovers do!

They are STUNNING! And look perfect on you. I also like the picture showing them on your wrist - wouldn't it be nice if necklaces can be worn as bracelets?

Congrats!

Thank you, yingh! Yes, the bracelet idea is a good one; way easier to admire them that way!

Here is a comparison between my Burmese South Sea studs (also from PP) and the Edison strand.

In real life they are quite similar but the SS studs have slightly sharper luster and slightly stronger pink overtones.

Frost Me, I wasn't interested in white pearls before but now I LOVE them!

The studs are 10-11mm.

Absolutely wonderful pearls. They seem to have that glow within that is so beautiful.

I recently purchased a strand of white Edison pearls from Pearl Paradise. In my collection of colorful baroques, these pearls are unique and I find myself reaching for them often!

The strand is graduated, 17" long, and the pearl sizes range from 9.2mm to 12.2mm.

oh wow !
i love a graduated stand
i read that years ago graduated starnds only went out of fashion because they took so much more work and so cost a lot more
i love these on you
i too am green with envy

I looked at PP yesterday - didn't see anything that I felt compelled to buy. But I'll keep looking

You might chat in and ask, they have lots of inventory that isn't posted on the website!

Virtual appt today. I keep coming back to this strand - it is exactly what I want. But I am curious what something like this cost? In the future I will get "that special" strand. This would tide me over till then. But I don't want to buy something "just because".
