My birthday blue akoyas from PP

[alene]

After seeing all the beautiful blue akoya strands in the past few weeks, I sent a link to my husband, with a subject "In case you're wondering what to get me for my birthday." Literally, within an hour, it showed as out of stock. Since my DH is usually the procrastinating type, I figured, oh well, someone else snapped it up and let it drop. Well, apparently, it wasn't someone else!

My first thought was, "It's really blue!" It actually changes color depending on the lighting and it's so beautiful! 18 inches and 8-8.5mm. Absolutely thrilled with my new pearls!

Absolutly beautiful blue akoya necklace. The pearls look larger than 8-8.5. I bet you will wear this strand often. Happy Birthday.

Absolutely beautiful on you. I know about the color changing. Sometimes mine are quite silver, and other times blue.

Enjoy and wear your beautiful strand in good health for many years to come. Happy birthday!

Those look so wonderful on you. Great choice, and great of your hubby to take the hint. My husband used to thank me for making shopping easy for him. You have a good thing going here.

Happy Birthday, and enjoy your pearls!

alene: those are unbelievably beautiful! Wow, so stunning. Must. Get. A Strand. Now. The luster and orient is amazing - they look like gorgeous, light blue metal balls.

They are gorgeous!

They are even better the second time around gawking. Alene/others: are they hard to come by?
