Thanks, SD. I'm glad the healing is done. I just have to keep up with the exercises at home to build the strength in that hand & wrist.
I am loving your blues!!

Thank you both. I was getting a bit shaky about my decision to send back the PP ones so compliments on the replacements help.
@SmokieDragon do you know if Cees does Edison’s? I thought he might be able to source true burgundy red for me
I ordered wine and fig to try as the PP strand was done with some brownish shade that blended in well. The BS purples are too bright for purple pearls that aren’t exactly purple.
Here are some daylight shots. The spots in the one aren’t flaws, it’s my reflection on the pearls surface taking the pic
These are really stunning. Luster is very reflective. Beautiful!
You can always contact Cees to see if he can get you a true burgundy strand.
Multicolored Ts today. Counting the days to Christmas break!!!

You work at a school, right? I have the same countdown. Our newish superintendent emailed out today that staff is dismissed at 12:30 on Friday (kiddos done at 10:45). Then that is it for me until the new year. Yippee!
I wish we had a half day Friday! I have a full day, then fly out to NYC on Saturday. I actually have two trips to NYC over the two week break! I can't wait.
Me on my wedding day, wearing pearl earrings, a pearl bracelet, and pearl necklace. I still wear the combo all the time for work!
That's great to hear and thanks so much!
I've never seen any on his Instagram but like what @cdtracing said, best to contact him
A couple weeks ago I lost last minute on an ebay auction for an natural freshwater pearl in a flatish egg shape on a mystery metal chain; the pearl was nearly an inch high and close to that at its widest. A couple days ago I recalled that during my Marie Antoinette drop pearl fixation, I had seen a group pic on a Ruby Lane sellers listing of a large pearl hanging from a rose cut diamond. Messaged her, got a price that was fair, ordered it yesterday and today it arrived from London.
Based on the diamond and its setting I think this was an older piece repurposed in 1900 onto a then modern chain with a tube clasp.
Here is The Iceberg ( not really sure of her name yet but she needs one)
