New Tahitian Rounds... Which one???

[soberguy]

Well, I just can''t help myself. I have decided to buy a strand of round multicolor tahitans. Here are a couple AAA strands from PP. I think I prefer the inside strand, given it''s more intense color.

Hmmm, that picture didn''t work out. Try again...

I prefer the inside one too! Good for you getting yourself another strand! They are addicting aren''t they??!!!

hey sober, you are just like me, once I had one, I had to get another. I give you credit, you waited a few weeks, I jumped back in the same day.

I really like the outside strand because of the light colored pearls scattered throughout.

I bought a multi colored strand from PP and the contrast of the very light pearls with the darker ones is very dramatic- Everyone comments when I wear it. Glad you are going back in.

just think- you can double them up and wear them together - too fabulous!

Swedish, how are you doing? recovering from camping trip and sunburn? I hope so

I love darker tahitians so prefer the inside strand. But as you can see, it''s really about personal preference.

I like darker pearls, therefore inside strand. Outside strand is pretty but colors aren't intense like Soberguy's observation. Strong contrast of light and dark is more dramatic and I am in search for that next...I think, but I am also looking for intense colors against pastel, lighter pearls, not white. Soberguy, check out Josh of Kamoka Pearls wearing round strand in the other pearl forum. One thread is under Pearling Industry News, search for "Carolyn Ehret, her pearls and Josh in Tucson". The other is in the same forum, search for "ICPGC xxxxx Ruckus", page 2.

Aw you''re so sweet! Yes, I have successfully shed my outer layer of skin- twice. LOL finally feeling better.. and I''m not neon red. Thank you for asking!

Inside strand! Tahitians are addictive aren''t they? I loved how your baroque strand looked on you- just the right length for a guy IMO. (I finally caved and got one of the AAA round strands from FF.)

They are both pretty but I like the inside ones the best.

I like the inside one for the colors. You can see the deep color luster and orient so much. I think that even though the pearls are so beautiful that maybe sometimes they are going to look like the same color in some lights. The outer strand has more contrasting.

I prefer the outside.
