Sooo... these happened recently!

I have the keshi coin one at home and the other two - ripples and biwa sticks were shipped yesterday!

Catherine makes it too easy lololol! I find her pics and description quite true to how the pearls are in person. I do bug her for neck shots when I have a handful of similar necklaces I'm trying to narrow down.

Lovely ❤️. Catherine is fantastic. I have a few of her pearl strands I need to photograph and she is so wonderful with returns etc so that you get what works for you

Here are pics of the long keshi coin that I have. The lighting is on the yellow side in my foyer.

I found my first set of pearls from Catherine from maybe 5 years ago? They were a present from DH.

Great purchases! I’m very interested to see the biwa stick piece. I’ve been eyeing one like that as well and wondered what it would look like on. Never occurred to me to ask Catherine for neck shots!

Lovely pictures with your kitty : )

PintoBean - your pearls look very similar to mine! :wavey:
I also got mine from CC - she called them "Moonglow" and that's a great description as the lustre is amazing... I'm wearing them today in fact! They are a mix of pastel shades and I get so many compliments on them. :love:

Those are lovely PB! I have similar keshis from Catherine and they are so cool. Plus I have a ton of others from her including ripples. She is a lovely person. Enjoy them!

I went ahead and bought those biwa stick pearls I’d had my eye on. I asked her to replace the starburst silver beads in it with little pearls so I’m not sure when it will arrive but i’ll share pics when it does.

Wow - I got a day after Christmas package from Australia today!!!!:appl:
The ripples are freaky - they remind me of orange pits and opals having babies. The wrinkles make me wary, but I'm glad they're not contagious bahhahahaba:lol-2::lol:. I love how they look. No one around here will have a necklace like this. It's unique and organic.

The biwa sticks are so flipping cool. And you can flip them too - how's that for "flipping"?:loopy:

Speaking of wrinkles - what kind of iron should I use to press out those neck lines of mine!:eek-2:

Both pieces have great luster and really nice shapes. How do you feel about them? I’m especially interested in your impressions of the biwa stick pearls.

OMG I didn't think i would love the biwa sticks this much. They are both primal yet refined - that odd juxtaposition makes them appropriate with ripped jeans and a fitted tank for a boho chic look or with something work appropriate or even with formal wear.

Thank you for the input! Wow! I bet you’ll reach for these a lot— they look really beautiful on your neck. That luster!

Cathy just finished replacing the starburst beads with little pearls on the lavender strand I posted above aaaand I bought two additional strands:oops:. Well, it’s the holidays and I’ve had my eye on these pieces for years. I’ll share as soon as they arrive!

Beautiful pieces PB! :D

I look forward to seeing your pieces baby nurse.

The biwa sticks are very interesting! I need to move off my Tahitian obsession.
