The PEARL Lovers Thread!

[cdtracing]

Hi, I'm completely new to pearls. For many years I was reluctant to buy pearls. But this year I turned 45 and decided that this is time for pearls [emoji6]
First was this fun bracelet with south see pearl and 18 carat RG - from spanish renowned brand Suarez.
Then I ordered this ring as a gift for my birthday - freshwater pearl, idealy round, 11mm in 14 carat YG.
And I was going to buy somthing difrent in jewellery antiquariat but I decided on this dainty necklace with pearls on 18 carat YG chain.
Those are my first pearls but definitly not last [emoji4]View attachment 4575207View attachment 4575210View attachment 4575211View attachment 4575212View attachment 4575213View attachment 4575214View attachment 4575215

Anyone familiar with Chins on ebay? There is a necklace I am watching and they have some really pretty things...just wondered if they are reputable.

I've been wondering the same thing.. I've been watching a necklace & I like the look of it but don't know anything about the seller.

That is soooooo crazy beautiful!

Thank you, misstrine85. Yes, I named this piece Kanaloa, after the ancient Hawaiian god of the sea. He is quite the art work & gets attention every time I wear him.

First new pearl purchase in a while. Was in Japan last week and couldn’t resist a small souvenir from Mikimoto. Brooch in sterling silver with 5 Akoya pearls.
