Agree, I would like to see the medium (smaller) sized one on an actual person. I think someone posted a comparision picture between it and the larger one and the larger one, for sure, at least for me, is way too large. I think it's a stunning piece and I keep going back to it.
 
Just got back (Wed) from the Toronto Tiffany's cocktail party and private screening of The Great Gatsby actually! It was SO much fun - got to try on a lot of the jewels from the movie including the pearl bracelet/ring she wore in the print ads and a ring that was SO STUNNING I dropped it by accident!! The models all had their hair done in flapper style and all the SA's were wearing long pearls like Daisy received on her wedding day... it was divine! Free popcorn and a Tiffany-bow-wrapped copy of the book on the way out!!

I was a little disheartened when I popped into the local Tiffany and saw they'd left tags on the pearl pieces that said Made in China. Nothing against China but it got me wondering and it turned me off this collection.

I too was thinking if purchasing these pearl necklaces were way too expensive considering they were fresh water pearls...didnt know they were made in China...but I did compare the prices to the Chanel necklaces that are made of glass...locally the glass pearls costs $500+ more than the Tiffany fresh water pearls...and the last time I checked the price of the glass pearls was about 4 years ago...so its a defintely higher price difference now...

According to wikipedia, fresh water pearls are now almost exclusively produced in China.
 
Finally remembered to take a pic. Sorry for the delay!

Love this! Looks great on you. Would love to see more modeling pics of this one, this could be an interesting piece for me.

Also, does anyone have this 5 row pearl bracelet from the Ziegfeld collection?:

I have to say that I find it a bit pricey for small freshwater pearls, but I love the look of it on the website.
