Fresh from mail. 2015 Pearl Purchases...

[akoya]

YEN went plunging so i decided to purchase these.... just received them in the mail. This is the only seller i have been purchasing pearls from.. i think for a few yrs now. I'm his returning customer outside of Japan. I dont reside in USA though.

The pink cloths are pearl cloth use to clean pearls.
i bought a few of them because i tend to make my pearls go oily... so i really need thorough cleaning

i kind of mixed up the pearls.... one is of a better quality than the others... not much pink tones for mine because my face/neck/ears are pretty pink tone. so pink overtone will not look outstanding on me. i need white and green, plus a tiny bit of pink

the bigger 8.5mm is the one with better quality. Price is more than double the smaller one. I think next time round i might just go 8.5mm with the same grade as the 8mm to save $$$

the 8mm is more silver tone. i love the 8.5mm for the tiny bit of pink overtone more than the 8mm. however i find the 8mm seem to 'pop' more... probably due to the silver overtone.








Pic taken with my iphone 5S so its not that good... but i think still do justice to the pearls lol
also, i save the pics in lower quality... so yea... thank u for watching

Pretty, pretty pearls. Are they both Akoya?

 

[akoya]

Thank you! Yup, they r both Akoya pearls, just like my nick! lol

i think for regular wear, the 8mm grade is already very good imo. maybe i will get another pair with a tiny bit more pink lol
Low Yen really makes the pearls more price competitive

Lovely pearl earrings! I'd be happy with either pair - congratulations!
