I was kindly shown these options in my price range. @yssie or anyone else want to help me pick? Anyone with better eyes than me? They all look good to me!

Oh I wanted to add that some look bluish to me and I think that might suit me more than the pink tones.

They all look good to me, too! I'm no help. :love:

If you know you prefer the bluish tone, then out of these options maybe it comes down to size and possibly price. The 9-9.5 mm were quite a bit more when I inquired (I ended up buying 8.5-9 mm). Have fun deciding!

Yes that is the same case for me. Thank you for commenting. Part of me is like: buy the more rare ones! The bigger ones! You won’t regret it!

And part of me is like: buy the more economical, you won’t regret it! You’ll probably lose one anyways! Lol

Remind me which size you bought?

Beautiful pearls!

I like the top pair of the 8.5-9mm pairs.

To my eyes, these are the pearls that are least pink in tone, and seem to match well.

My eyes were drawn to the very top pair (the top 8-8.5 option)

For me it’s whichever of the top pairs match best in Takahashi’s opinion. In overtone colour, overtone strength, and luster. I kind of suspect that’ll be the 9-9.5 but I would ask them :))

I was shown the pairs below. I usually ask for their opinion because I can't see the actual pearls. With these, I was told which pair best matches the pearls I just received, which pair was more shiny, and also that the top 9mm pair was greener. I love asking a simple question and receiving all sorts of information! My eyes are learning to see what they see and my brain is learning what to look for.

I chose the bottom 9mm, fyi. I don't know when they'll ship. I keep adding things to my order. If I have to pay for shipping and a wire fee, I'm getting my money's worth! :lol-2:

Bottom bottom pair seems the nicest to me. But I would go for the bottom top pair due to size. :)
