I love it like this where you can see whites, silvers, light greys and charcoals. So classy but edgy but casual but cool - genuine multitasking!

Haha the concept of starter pearls implied holy grail pearls someday right?

@MakingTheGrade Soooooo chic!

@Lisa Loves Shiny Beautiful! Tahitians are among my favorites!


This thread is really inspiring me to wear my pearls more. Lord knows, I do love them but have a healthy fear of ruining them.

From what i gather from just about every one including HM Queen Elizabeth II is the best thing you can do for your pearls is wear them

The best way to ruin pearls is not to wear them Just wipe them after wearing them!

Lol. I think I stumbled upon my holy grail Tahitians with my big "Wilma" strand. She rules over all the other Tahitians in the house. I do love her though.

Restrung my GSS and akoya strand with my new 6.5mm akoyas for the ends (I had some freshwater stand ins) and upgraded the clasp from gold filled to 14k matte gold. Woot!

That turned out beautifully, @MakingTheGrade. Plus I LOVE your bracelet stack!

Thanks! I’m jealous that the pearls never look as good on me as on shale. Sigh.

A big ole Tahitian strand—no idea where I purchased it, although it's quite a few years ago, now. Circled, nice lustre, fun colors, and 14-16mm. They're heavy!

On my desk blotter:


And with a warm, wooly sweater, 'cause it's cold today:

Love this! I am such a big fan of big, bold, circled baroque and button Tahitians that are colorful. Your necklace is gorgeous.

I just took a picture - trying to capture the overtones in these pearls. Arg.
Little rainbows that don't show up until the lighting is right. #Pearlnerding.

 

[Cerulean]

Used the rest of my tiny gem akoyas to make a bracelet with some 14k gold beads. Gonna use it for stacking!

Edit: I may just sleep and shower in this even though I know I shouldn’t cause it’s bad for the pearls. It’s just so light and comfy and pretty. But we can see how long it takes for them to deteriorate for science haha.

I love this - I also kinda want a daily bracelet I just live in...def keep me posted on how well it endures!

 

[Cerulean]

Haha I did! Thanks!
Speaking of Tahitians. Just got my new circles in so I can work on a harvest strand once my keshi arrive

Oooooh how do you like the Tahitian circles? Where did you get these again?
