Your pearl jewelry is beautiful. I love the keishi Petal Pearl necklace but I also adore that chunk of turquoise!! I have a nice size stash of pearls, mostly round, rice & button & love designing with them. Like gemstones, the price of nicer quality pearls has gone way up 🙁 I’m glad I invested in a bunch before that happened!

I love this wide variety of artistry – in these finished jewelry pieces, and in the pearls themselves. My favorite is the necklace with stick pearls and turquoise in photo 4. And I agree, I seem to like pearls of any shape best when they’re combined with simple elements and not overly embellished.
