I just received my 15" pearl necklace and 8-9mm earrings

[D&T]

Ugg.. I meant to say 15" pearl necklace, not 15 in quantity(though I wish)...

I just received this! I'm so excited, its my very first pearl strand of necklace yippee

I didn't realize how heavy real pearl strands necklaces are...lol. I'm so Used to wearing dainty pendants on a thin chain. The first 10 minutes I struggled with the clasp

The earrings look huge on my ears. I guess I have small earlobes

Here are the vendor Pics... the earrings don't match the necklace, I didn't think it would be too big of a difference, but I can definitely see them

So I just decided I"m much more of a pink overtone girl instead of lavender (earrings)
But I absolutely love my new necklace. It is a bit shocking with the vendor's gigantic pictures, but oh my gosh they are a bit teeny. However, perfect for me everyday wear. I know I'm rambling, was just so excited to share with you all

I know this thread is worthless without Pics, I will try to get them uploaded tonight.

Oooh, that means my pearls should be arriving soon! Can''t wait to see your pics!

 

[D&T]

yay! Brightlight, can''t wait to see yours too!

 

[Kelli]

How pretty! I can''t wait to see your pics of them!

 

[cushioncutnut]

Just love them! I take it that they are even nicer in person than the vendors pics? Sigh..... just another vendor I am going to have to give a try! Neck shots!!!! PLEASE???

 

[D&T]

Thank you kelli and CushionCut- ok, I didn''t do a very good job at taking pictures. I actually like the vendor picture on the earrings, but I think it doesn''t show very well in the pictures...sorry. Its a bit hard to capture the luster in these.

 

[D&T]

whoops earlier was the flash.

 

[D&T]

terrible earring pictures, sorry I don''t know how to photograph earrings well

 

[D&T]

the earrings are a bit more lavender than the necklace, but I kinda knew that would happen

earrings not super duper round, but not too terribly noticeable

 

[D&T]

hmmm didn''t attach... but here is the other.

Oooooh, D&T, those are beautiful!!! I love how the earrings look on you - very luxurious! And I would never have guessed they weren''t perfectly round. How big are the pearls in your necklace? They''re from pearllunar, right? The luster is gorgeous on both pieces!

Thanks C- the necklace is between 5-6mm yep they are pearllunar, I really love the necklace, not too crazy about the earrings maybe its because they are not my usual dainty jewelry (but I''m branching out...lol), there is an golden apricot color that I really like so maybe once I''ve filled up the piggy bank again

but I already have built up quite a list and one of them is to copy your three strand bracelet

D&T, you look fantastic!!

I agree, Pearl Lunar''s macro photos also makes the buyer think the pearls are larger than they are but their pearls are beautiful.

I order quite often from Pearl Lunar''s site and have loved everything I have received. I too have noticed the mind / eye difference in her photos and try to alert others to this so that they are not disappointed. Her pearls are so pretty that it would be a shame for buyer''s to be disappointed based on size rather than the true description.

D&T, they are both gorgeous and look fantastic on you!

Thank you for your kind words JM- I love love my new necklace. I really like the size, but it is a bit of shock about the mind/eye difference for sure... like with the earrings, I didn''t expect it to be large on my earlobes...lol but the necklace I was pleasantly surprise

D&T, they look gorgeous on you! I think my 100" strand is here, there''s a note in my post today to collect a package from the Post Office. It''s exciting isn''t it?

ooooh this is exciting!!! can''t wait to see your pictures

Thank you btw

 

[Indylady]

They're gorgeous!!


And of course they look awesome on you D&T!! I really like the color, and the difference in overtone with the earrings doesn't seem very obvious. I love the feeling of the 'weight' of a strand of pearls.

How round would you say they are?

thanks SZ- how are you doing sweetie? its interesting the on one of the pearl when you are looking face on, its very round almost perfect but from the side, it falls a bit short almost to a button shape (is that how you would describe it like a ball of dough sitting on the table..lol) and from the side, its noticeable the other earring is more rounded -sideview, however face straight on a bit oblong. Its very miniscule but I guess I just notice these things, But I love them nonetheless, at least I know I have authentic pearls right

earrings not super duper round, but not too terribly noticeable

Their shape is "plump bread" (aka bao).

They look great on you!
