Thanks! I've had it for a few years now but seeing all these pictures of everyone else's beans made me really like it all over again. Thanks for the info on the 12 mm RG bean. I tried on the 9 mm one in the store but it just didn't look as fabulous on me in that size as it looked in your modeling pic. Otherwise trust me I would have snatched it up too! You wear it so well!

darkangel07760 said:So here is me wearing both beans. Normally, I would not wear both, but for size comparison I thought this would help.
I have a 13" neck, and the 20mm sterling silver bean is on a 14.5" chain, and the 12mm black jade bean is on a 16" chain. I asked my SO last night what he thought, he thought the large bean should be on a longer chain, and that the smaller bean should be shorter!
They still look so cute! Maybe they can switch your beans around instead of altering the chain lengths.

I wouldn't wear the 2 beans together. The bigger one is good by itself. It makes a statement. The smaller black one might look good with another style of necklace for layering when you want more jewelry on. Then you would have something for 2 different blouse necklines.
Here (finally) is my 12 mm SS bean on a 15" chain (had it shortened). I love it and am trying to decide if I should get one in rose gold too. Anyone know if they make the 12mm in rose gold too? I've only ever seen the mini (9mm) one.
This looks so lovely on you!
I agree, I could never wear them together. I only wore them together in this photo to show the differences between the two I have.
I agree, I love having both for two different looks!
I am a bit of an amateur jeweler, so I fashioned my own necklace extender. This is my 20mm on an 18" chain.
Ok so I am going to think about what would be the right length for my silver bean...
I have been musing over the 20mm black jade... But I am not sure... I was honestly surprised that they had a larger bean in black jade... I was focused on the 12mm! Which I like. But maybe I should go get the 20mm. I tried it on at the store, but...
I HATE making decisions in the store. SO distracting, with all of this gorgeous Tiffany stuff around me, and all I want to do is sit quietly and look at them for awhile. But I feel like you can't! So I make a decision, while standing there, with the SA right up close...
Gah. I am going to contact my friend tonight that works there, and ask her if she can hold the larger black jade bean for me so that I can sit in the back with her (she works in the OP department) and have my SO with me and take the time to decide. I just want to make sure. This is a big purchase for me, and I HATE flip flopping. I just need to be able to focus and take my sweet ol time.
Does anyone else have this issue?
I need to learn to "zen out" and then it would be easier, lol!
