Jeremy just sent me photos of the completed strand. I am in love. I should have it in a few days. I cannot wait.

Center pearl is 14.2 mm, next pair 13.8, then 13.4. I don't remember how small they got at the ends.

I love it! I think it's especially meaningful that you picked out each pearl in the strand yourself. How long is the finished strand?

I am not usually a fan of multi-coloured strands as I do not like gold, yellow, peachy or brown colours, however, I love the look of this one, very easy on the eye for me, thanks for sharing!

Wow, what an amazing necklace Kay. I'm looking forward to more photos.

Re: Photos of my new WSS and Tahitian strand from Pearl Para

Thank you, everyone! I am very excited. I will post lots of pictures once I have it.

SMC, the length is between 17" and 18". They had me try on a finished 18" strand, and it was a smidge too long, so they were trying for a little under. I can measure when I get it.

Dk168, I have similar issues with not wanting gold, yellow or peach tones in a multicolor for me. This is sort of a "black and white photography" version of a multicolor strand, with everything in shades of white, grey and black.

4Ranch Girl, I hope I have it by Sunday too! It shipped today, but it is always a trick trying to pick up from FedEx, since I won't be home when they attempt delivery. Jeremy is also sending back my silver bracelet with a variety of replacement pearl options for us to play with. The blue baroque set should ship today or tomorrow too.

It is absolutely dreamy and on my wish list I can't wait for more photos!

Kay -- I keep coming back to look at this photo. It is such a beautiful piece. It's symmetrical, but varied and a joy to the eyes.

I can hardly wait for neck shots!

Re: Photos of my new WSS and Tahitian strand from Pearl Para

Kay, that is just a stunning piece and special since you picked it out yourself in person! I hope I could visit there someday too and just drool over different pearls ,LOL!

Congratulations and enjoy your beauty!

We can always postpone a week or we could get together twice

Kay, Congratulations! That necklace is a stunning study in white, silver and grey ... so sophisticated and elegant.

There is certainly nothing wrong with getting together more than once, but I should have both strands by tomorrow night because the mixed strand went out Wednesday by Fed Ex 2-day and Hisano finished the blue strand today and shipped overnight because she knew we were getting together this weekend. Gotta love that kind of customer service!

(Fed Ex gets a big "boo" though. I tracked the package this morning online and it showed it was in San Diego by 7:30 this morning. I requested the package be held for pick up at a Fed Ex station since I would not be home to receive it on a work day. Fed Ex called to confirm I could pick it up tomorrow after after 10 am. I asked why I couldn't pick it up tonight, but they said the package was locked up since it was not due to be delivered until tomorrow. )

Re: Photos of my new WSS and Tahitian strand from Pearl Para

I have had that happen to me except it was in lock up for 2 more days. I was so ticked. Hisano and Jeremy are good people and a couple of my very favorite ones too. I bet you will be first in line tomorrow at 10am

Re: Photos of my new WSS and Tahitian strand from Pearl Para

I received the strand on friday and wore them out for the first time to day. I absolutely love this necklace! I tried to take a few neck shots, but it is hard to take pictures of your own neck!

Here they are in the PP box, posing with the earrings:

Re: Photos of my new WSS and Tahitian strand from Pearl Para

I got to spend several lovely hours gazing at this necklace on Kay's neck. It is truly a beautiful piece. The design is outstanding. It was a pleasure meeting you Kay and fun talking pearls with a fellow pearl lover.

Wow, that is an absolutely beautiful and inspirational piece! Enjoy your beautiful necklace and wear it in good health!

Truly pearls look their best when they are being worn. I love, love, love that necklace on you. Simply gorgeous, and I hope you continue to enjoy wearing it for many, many years to come.
