So I had an appointment today at Pearl Paradise

and got to pick out some beautiful pearls.
I started out just wanting a Tahitian Pendant, but I asked Mia to show me some of the new Freshwater Exotics and ended up with a pendant and earrings of those (thank you hubby!)

First up will be the Tahitian Pendant... this is their Orion Pendant (.12tcw diamonds)... these pics do not show the real beauty of this pearl (11.8mm Peacock):

This compares the earrings to a strand of AAA lavender freshwaters also from PP... I think this shows a big difference on the luster:

I was so excited that I ended up with the exotic pendant... I had been looking at them on their website, but the multi-color stand did not appeal to me (confirmed when I tried it on today), and the pendants that they offer online were only in the pink body with gold overtone and white body with gold overtone... I really had wished they had the lavender... so when Mia brought out their stock of pendants my eyes lit up at the only lavender with blue overtone in the lot.. it was meant to be

I cannot say enough about PP and Mia, she was wonderful to work with and my pearls were set by Jeremy himself while I waited, overall outstanding customer service!

Yes the 4 diamond pendant does move, it has two "hinges" that allow for movement, one under the second stone from the top and one under the third.

They are beautiful. I like the lavender strand. Thanks for the info about the diamond. I was under the impression they are rigid.

I am still enjoying these pendants very much... I think I wear the exotic freshwater more than the Tahitian (which is funny since the purpose of my trip was to get the Tahitian and I saw the exotic by chance and had to have it).


IK -- not a new kitty, its just a picture of my youngest when she was about 8 weeks old (she is turning 4 this year).
