WOWZA!!!! That's spectacular!!! I would be proud to have that necklace in my collection!!
Thank you! I have been collecting Jewelmer pieces for about almost ten years now, and this is the highlight of my south sea pearl collection, although I love them all!
The more I look at your multi color Akoya necklace, the more I want one!!!
I want pretty much everything people share on this thread!
Thanks so much!
I got it last year. I think you need one too! Haha! That is so true for me too
Just ordered from a seller in japan a 13.5 mm south sea pearls from japan. Do you think it is too big?
13.5 is a nice size for SSP. You will find as you get older you might suffer from pearl shrinkage syndrome...so with pearls, bigger is better in my opinion!
This was very emotional for me. I grew up working class — my mom was a house cleaner, my dad was a state government employee. We didn’t have a lot of money.
I grew became a lawyer and just bought myself my first strand of real Akoya pearls. I loved them so much, I bought myself a pair of dangly black pearl earrings as well. It seems shallow, but I feel extremely lucky to be able to afford all these things I couldn’t growing up. It may be superficial, but it makes me feel successful.

Your new pearls are a testament to your hard work. Wear them with pride! They are a lovely way to celebrate your accomplishments.
It's not superficial, it's a testament to your disciple, sacrifice, & hard work. They're beautiful & look wonderl on you. Wear them with pride! Be assured you will want more because pearls are addictive. LOL
Thank you both so much! It’s a beautiful symbol to me of getting to that next level. I can’t wait for my next occasion to wear them!!
You really don’t need an occasion to wear them. Your pearls can become your signature...heck I’m an elementary school teacher and I wear pearls every day whether to work or the grocery store! Now it looks like I’ll be wearing them to teach virtually from my home!
Congratulations! You don't need an occasion to wear them - they will look great on a day out even if you're wearing a T shirt! I try to wear my pearls regularly to work in the office
