Again I would like to thank Andrey and Ali for creating this forum for us! And as the title says... Show me your pearls! Details would be much appreciated too! I would start us off but I don't have anything much to show, so I am looking forward to all the lovely pearl candy belonging to some of our PS ladies! 
 Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn |

Skippy I love yours - I need to check out pearlparadise! Here are mine. Unfortunately I really don't know anything about them. The pearl strand was originally my grandma's, who gave it to my mom, who gave it to me. A year or so ago the string snapped so I had them restrung and the clasp replaced - I haven't worn them much so the string is still a bit stiff. The ring I got at a local jewelry store in my hometown a few years ago. The studs were my mom's and she gave them to me years ago (both sets).  ********************** |

Yessss! I am loving the new addition!! AND the beautiful pearls posted by skippy and BEG! Here's my pearls that I've shown in the wedding thread - first up, my add-a-pearl necklace. It was started by my godparents when I was baptized and slowly grew over the years, until just a few inches were needed right before my wedding. As a little girl, I wanted the necklace very small and delicate, so I kinda regret that now, but I love how it grew with me - and my mom always brought them out during special occasions in my life, so I have photos in them throughout my childhood/young adulthood. A couple of the pearls in the necklace were brought back from my grandfather when he served in WWII - but I don't know which ones, sadly.

Wedding earrings (every time I see these, I think of my mom buying them - she wanted took me in to finish the above necklace literally two days after I got engaged, and the earrings were my engagement gift from her - she was so excited/happy):

I've often wondered if people ever finished add-a-pearl necklaces. I've considered getting one for my niece, but I figure the cost will be less if I just buy her one when she graduates...I'm happy to see that people DO in fact finish them and get joy out of wearing them:)

And these are my baroques... there's a bit of a story here. My mom found an e-bay seller who was selling pearls for insanely low prices, and she bought a ton of them as fun jewelery. I fell in love with this set so Mom just gave them to me, since she had purchased some other similar pieces. I know literally nothing about pearls, but I think they're "real" (they're very heavy and some of them have flaws, and they feel like baroques that I've seen in stores). Anyway, regardless of quality/authenticity, I love wearing these because of how they feel on (and I love the chunky style compared to my other pearls).

The jeweler who sold my godparents the necklace/where my mom bought the inches of pearls to add always puts pearls on a pretty significant sale during June, so every couple of years, Mom would buy the pearls then. But even with the timing, it wasn't really cost effective.

I love this pendant. It was an ebay special. It's a baroque pearl with white gold accents and little diamond chips. |

2 small grey strands. One is slightly longer than the other so I double them to make a 2-strand look. |

vintage white strand from ebay. These need to be worn so they warm/luster up a bit. |
