My birthday is coming up and I am allowing myself one moderately priced present. I want to continue with my “collecting the classics” roll that I’ve been on. I initially said I wasn’t going to get anything, but my husband convinced me to buy SOMETHING for my birthday.
I am either going to get a pair of WF ACA diamond studs, or a pair of gem quality Akoyas from either Miki or Andrew Moline.
My diamond studs would be .30 each or .60ctw. The pearls would be 7-8mm, depending on availability.
I don’t have a nice pear of diamond studs OR a nice pair of pearl studs yet (sad face).
I *might* upgrade the diamond studs, but not for a while. For a milestone birthday in 2 years I am going to treat myself to a second, larger set of WF ACA’s. The goal is to have 2 sets of WF ACA’s, one for each piercing hole. (The more the merrier woohoo!).
I recently bought myself 24k gold hoops which I wear every day, these are in my first piercing. My second piercing currently holds very poor quality B&M diamond studs that my hubby bought for our first Valentine’s Day as a married couple.
They. Are. Driving. Me. NUTS. Hence why my birthday present has to be earrings, haha.
My plan is to eventually get BOTH WF ACA and gem quality akoyas, and switch back and forth between them for my second piercing.
So…. What do y’all think?? I live pretty close to a Mikimoto in SoCal, so maybe I should drop by and take a peak? I’ve never seen gem quality Akoyas in real life before.
