Re: Do you like Honora jewelry

I love pearl earrings. They are my birthstone. I have studs of every color except cherry red. Mad at myself for not getting them long ago. I like button shapes best.

Yes, I like them. I bought some of the colored ones many years ago and still am very happy I did.

Yes, I love Honora.  As many have said, I also bought a big collection of them from QVC "back in the day" when Honora was on a lot with all sorts of earrings, colors and lengths.  I cherish my collection and I wear white pearl earrings every single day ... my birthstone and my signature look.  Wish they were on more.

Re: Do you like Honora jewelry

I have some jewelry with Honora pearls and I have some jewelry with really expensive pearls.  There is a big difference.

 

Honora pearls are nice, but they don't hold a candle to the finest ones.

 

I have been to China and Thailand. Omg, the pearls you can get there!

 

I do like pearls, but they're not my favorite " gem."

 

I think if you see something you like and you will enjoy and wear it often, go for it.  Pearls are a natural product and even the "inferior" ones can be prized for their beauty.

Re: Do you like Honora jewelry

I do like Honora pearls, whether natural color or dyed. I particularly like my Ming pearls from Honora, and the peacock pearl strands I purchased years ago with dark blue, teal blue, kiwi green, and violet. When I wear those smaller oval pearls in peacock colors, I feel happy. Color goes a long way, even in smaller doses. I have no regrets. Colored pearls can take a simple colored tee shirt, and make it look so much more refined.

Those stretch bracelets are junk IMHO.  The elastic stretches out and frays.  As for color, I prefer white pearls.  Some of the intensely dyed colors make the pieces look like inexpensive  costume jewelry.

Re: Do you like Honora jewelry

The single pearl could cost 100.000 of dollars. For the price offered at QVC and for the quality Honora is an excellent option, if you can afford the best of pearls, why would you even go to shopping channel? It is always known, shopping at the mine, or the place where divers got the pearls probably will give you better options better prices. 

Sky is the limit, to both, quality and price.

I think that Honora jewelry is beautiful!  I purchased an Honora rose gold plated bangle bracelet years ago that had all of these dangly blush pink pearls on it- really pretty and I get compliments whenever I wear it! Smiley Happy

I'm going to Thailand in six months. Will be interested in gold jewelry as well as pearls. The USD to Thai Baht exchange rate is extremely favorable

Re: Do you like Honora jewelry

Not a fan of pearls.  Hate the fresh water pearls.  Do like the salt water pearls.  Have seen gorgeous salt water, Tahitian, Akoya, etc on Gem Shopping.
