The PEARL Lovers Thread!

Work closed for snow and ice that never switched to rain so Between bonding with a shovel, I restrung my harvest rope using pearls from the PP harvest bracelet. Biggest change is that I removed the big edisons that in person didn’t mesh well with the other pearls.

I like it much better without the Edisons. The luster just glows on this rope!!

Thanks. The edisons are pretty but they just stood out in a rope of SSPs.

Does anyone know the best place to buy pearls online? Looking for a long strand of Akoya pearls.

Hi everyone, I stumbled into this thread yesterday and I LOVE all the pictures of your pearls! I always love how pearls look. I have a couple of freshwater pearls necklaces and a bracelet that I wear all the time, and they're not even expensive but they are my treasured possession! Looking at your pearls pictures made me want to get into this world of pearls, I did not know there are so many varieties. I can see how this can quickly become an obsession.

Anyway, here are some the pictures of my pearls:




I have the double strand for a while now and I can see the string has become loose in some parts. I'm worried that it might break soon. Any suggestion would be appreciated!

Sorry if the pictures are gigantic, I don't know how to resize them.

I also have this odd looking pearl necklace that I very rarely wear because they are odd and so chunky and a bit too short (16inch / 40 cm). When I want to wear it I styled it with a ribbon on the chain to make it longer and just tied it at the back.
