Hi Pearl Queens! Let's see if today's a day Q will let me connect and post Smiley Happy  Been missing you all; keeping busy tending to hubby and his hurt finger ... thankfully finally healing slowly. 

 

Esmeraldagooch, your anniversary pearls are just stunning! I hope to see them in person some day! 

 

Hope everyone had a great Christmas and a safe and fun New Year. We were pretty quiet here, but we see the grandson New Year's Day ... no more quiet then LOL.

Oh NO!  So sorry to hear your husband was hurt.  We drove to see our son's this year in the snow.  I thought it was great, DH who was driving not so much.   Did you get pearls for Chirstmas CathyRD?

Just stopping by to say Hello to our Pearl Queens in 2016. Log in seems to be working better, so I thought I'd post a photo of my new earrings ... shipped and due to arrive to me on Tuesday. Can't wait to take them out for a test wearing Smiley Happy The pearls are baroque white akoya 9.5 - 10mm, taken from a full strand and custom set ... I think they'll be a classic, wearable with anything. Anyone else join in?

Aw, thanks, Esmeraldagooch ... I owe it all to the Pearl Queens Smiley Happy  I'm so impatient to get these in my hands ... I love what John did. I'm plotting more pairs of these with other pearls and gems in the future. Hope you and Mr. are well; we are doing okay. Walter's finger is FINALLY all healed, and we're scheduled to visit the Mediterranean in April; a first for us! One of the conditions of my agreeing was ... NO interference in any possible July Ruckus events LOL.  Here's my ring; out of Mikeyy's suitcase, with added hand engraving by a master engraver John found for me; I think it adds the perfect touch to the pearl :

Beautiful CathyRD.  I love all the carved gold on that band.  It must have taken quite a while to do all that work.  The Mikeyy's suitcase pearl is beautiful. What is it?

Re: Pearl Necklace XXII Pearl Queen Cafe/Bar/Casino

Thanks, Esmeraldagooch Smiley Happy  I just got my ring ... and it's really pretty. The gold band is very narrow and delicate ... I can only imagine what this engraver could do with a wide band! I think the engraver only had it maybe a week/10 days ... it took a long time to decide what to do with it, and then find the engraver, as the previous engraver they worked with was no longer doing work ... so John had to find a new one. Hand engraving is a dying art, sadly. The pearl is a white south seas pearl. I guess it would be called a button pearl, or baroque? It's very round, but flatter and wider, like a button, except the bottom is taller, just like a child's top would be, so it sits up nicely on the band. Love it!
