Biggest Pearls I've Ever SEEN

[iLander]

Just saw these on Sarah's Kojima Pearls site, they are HUGE at 20-30 MM EACH!

Her description:
This is a truly amazing strand of natural color Chinese fresh water baroque bead nucleated lavender pondslime pearls. The strand weighs 175 grams! and the pearls range in size from 20-30mm. Each pearl was chosen specially for this unusual look.. drilled through the middle so the pearls stack and form a really unique baroque collar of pearls. This is not a strand for everyone.. when it is for you.. you will know. Honestly it is very hard to capture the spirit of this strand by photograph alone

I don't have any budget left after some colored stone purchases, but I thought everyone would like to take a gander at these beauties

Hubba Hubba!

How can something so pretty be called "pond slime"? those pearl farmers need marketing help.

Thanks for the heads up on the new Kojima pearls, iLander.

I agree, kelpie, something like "bronze" would sound much better than pond slime.

Now those are big!

 

[VapidLapid]

oil-slick iridescent would be a better term. how long is this strand?

 

[Lovinggems]

It's a statement piece, one thing I don't like is the longest pearl at the front.

I love that piece and would wear it in a New York minute

You should get it and post lots of photos.

I love the left side (looking straight at it) of this necklace a lot.

Does anyone know the length and the type of clasp on these by chance? I love them! The price is certainly right!

Yes! I could rock them also. Should we meet in NY for longer than a few moments to admire them?

My CC pondslime pearls are very large, and garner at least 5 minutes of positive attention . And they "go" with everything!

cheers--Sharon

I would've bought this in a heart beat if I thought it would fit...

ugh! thick necks!

 

[blondie~]

Wow. That's quite the necklace.

 

[Arcadian]

That thing is heavy it would surely give its wearer a hella neck workout

Or pretty close anyway.

They're strands, so I think Sarah can make them any length you want, by adding other pearls to the back of the strand.
