I stumbled upon these Tahitian drop earrings a couple weeks ago and they’ve become my go to pair. They go with everything and feel casual and special at the same time. They are 10mm in 14kt gold. I hadn’t noticed the difference in coloration until I saw a photo. I love seeing the different tones and rather enjoy them that way 89D8EFFA-9013-4257-ADA0-E050B0514B21.jpeg

I am finding that I wear them with my GSS pendant rather than with my Tahitian drop pendant. Somehow the less intense colors seem to blend better. Does anyone else mix their earring and pendant choices when wearing pearls?

I mix my bracelets and necklaces since I don’t wear earrings. I think it’s nice to wear variety so I don’t feel too matchy and formal.

Good point, @MTG! I’m not ordinarily fussy with matching. I was expecting to want to pair the Tahitians all together, but it didn’t work out that way.
I love seeing all the ways you make the pearls suit your style! Really creative and keeps it fun!

Clearly not a pearl lover. Naptime intrusion. GO AWAY.

I like the darker purple pecans which are like chunks of rainbow. ADC2FC34-E562-4994-AE3C-C6A5FCFE343A.jpeg

Perfect name for that type of pearl. I will here forward see pecans. They are both pretty. The freshwater pearls have improved so much in the last 20 years!

I remember the tiny rice krispie pearls from the 80s. Which dates me, as that was forty years ago, LOL. I still have a few strands of those.

Two new loose Tahitians arrived today. I have 9, 10, and 11.5 drops. Might do a pendant of three. 53046812-945A-40B0-A3EB-DEC5F4286D97.jpeg

Sister and I bought these pecan pearls on Etsy from Shanghai. Vendor included a Chinese New Year gift for the Year of the Ox. 18BEFB04-E557-4D2F-B996-E3E9FAC516C4.jpeg

Wow - they really do look like peacons

Nice thoughtful gift too
