New Tahitian strand!

[stracci2000]

I just wanted to share photos of my new Tahitian strand.
It's 8-11mm, mixed color, 18".
From Tara pearls.
Although I have other Tahitians, in rings, earrings and pendants, this is my first strand. It just arrived today, and I can't wait to wear it.
Only a few of my friends would appreciate it, so I will share it with you, my fellow PS pearl lovers.

It looks fantastic on your neck. I hope you wear it a lot. It's a keeper.

Thanks, seaurchin and Nacrelover!
I have so much pearl jewelry, but what was missing from my collection was a strand of Tahitians and a strand of South Sea pearls. (Still lookin' for a deal on those )
I was lucky to stumble upon this great deal online, which I just couldn't pass up.
Now I need a conch pearl, a melo pearl, a quahog pearl, a Sea of Cortez pearl..........

Here's another shot that shows the colors a little better

That strand looks great on your neck! Congrats. I hear you on the "wish list"

I'm in love with these new pearls, and can't resist posting more photos. I'm such a jewelry addict. Is there rehab for such a thing?
Still trying to get a better shot of them.
They are so hard to photograph!
The pearls are very smooth. In my previous photos, they seem to reflect a bit of the background and look bumpy.
Here's a new shot.
