Honora Ming Pearls

kiwi55 · ‎03-09-2010

If anyone ordered J289169 Honora Ming cultured pearl bronze necklaces a few weeks ago - they were on advance order due to ship out on Jan 20, I believe. Just checked on mine and they are In Process, so we should get them a little earlier than anticipated. HTH

Whoo hoo! I'm very anxious to see what they really look like. I noticed another advanced item I had ordered was in process yesterday, and saw reviews popping up on others already.

What else did you get?

The other advance order item I ordered was the Ostro London Blue Topaz ring that was $59. That has shipped now!

The new Honora ring with the pearl wrapped in black spinel was supposed to be an advance order, but that has reviews on it already, so they do seem to be a bit ahead of schedule. I didn't get that ring, but still read the reviews.

Hi ladies - Congrats on your purchases! I ordered the ming strand... click. The pearls look just as they did in the presentation... lustrous, colorful, and BIG! Isn't it hard to believe those shades are natural? Well enjoy your new necklaces... hope you love them! ${#emotions_dlg.tt1}$

I like to read some of the reviews for things on my wishlist. I know a lot of people complain that Gem Day doesn't have any special pricing, but I like that aspect.

Big kahuna... I like the sound of that! Thank you, I'm really enjoying it. I hope you love your necklace and ring too! Was that the ring with the 5 stones? Very pretty! I was watching that Ostro show... how adorable was the vendor? He was so nervous, the poor thing! ${#emotions_dlg.blush}$ I could listen to that accent all day though.

It indeed was the 5-stone ring. I really don't need more blue topaz, but it leaves me quite powerless. My favorite London blue ring has become too small for my fingers these days, so I thought that would be a nice replacement, and it was a good time to check out the Ostro line. The vendor was just a cutie patootie. I enjoyed hearing things from the actual family's perspective.

I hope these are keepers. I did get 3 other things that weren't on advance order, but I'm a bit on the fence about them. One I've decided is going back for sure, the other 2 are still in debate. I really hate to return things, but none are as expected, and one just seems to have a downright design flaw.
