The PEARL Lovers Thread!

My ring arrived!!! Was not expecting it to arrive today but it’s absolutely beautiful the Pearl is much less golden in real life, but I love it. Very happy, as I can now wear it to a wedding party on Thursday! Now to hunt for some matching earrings.View attachment 5174418View attachment 5174419

Pearls are so beautiful. Every single pearl you posted here.
Made a new bracelet with a gold cross I had. It is a pendant but works perfectly on a bracelet.

Thinking about more pearls after re-watching the Downton Abbey series . I was impressed with the quality of my last non-designer strand, and am considering another strand in a long length.

My question to you pearl collectors, is there any reasonable reason to buy Mikimoto if I can find the same pearls for several thousand dollars less? (Apropos of nothing, I saw that SJP chose Mikimoto in the Sex and the City movie.) Does Mikimoto have so much cache that it is worth the extra expense. Trying to get my mindset right If anyone can help.

My first pearl necklace... it's freshwater pearls (and the clasp is silver), bit I liked the light pink colour, so I got it It's much more pink IRL, depending on the lighting.

Lovely pearls!

I made these 3 little bracelets with different pearls and garnets today. Can´t really capture the dark red of the garnets in this light.

Recently got into pearls. The white SSP has always been in my collection but I recently been loving other shades of SSP

Love this thread! Playing with the idea of pearl and diamond earrings to go with my wedding dress. Thoughts on these beauties? Or other ideas? Am willing to spend a bit as they will be passed down in the family. https://www.mikimoto.co.uk/uk_en/les-petales-place-vendome-akoya-earring

I was just at Mikimoto in NYC this weekend. The Place Vendôme collection is lovely. I think the Cherry Blossom collection would be beautiful too, which I am thinking of getting. https://www.mikimotoamerica.com/med...195b6a99964fcf26c8bd894a/m/e/mea10261ndxz.jpg

Ahhh I did not know of this brand! I am UK based so it would be very easy for me to go and have a look. Thank you for the advice

Oh lovely! I do not see this on the UK website, but maybe they have in store I emailed them yesterday and asked about the diamond quality they use (F-G,VS) and the SA was so kind to send me pictures of the earrings as well as an additional pair also with diamonds
