Happy Holidays from PurePearls.com; FedEx Shipping Reminder

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

Hi Everybody!

 

Christmas is just 2 days away, and I wanted to remind everyone to place your order with FedEx 2nd Day or FedEx Overnight Shipping for guaranteed delivery. FedEx will be delivering packages until Thursday, December 24th- Christmas Eve, so there is still time to get your Special Someone some gorgeous pearl jewelry from PurePearls.com!

 

Additionally, I’d like everyone to know that our offices will be closed from December 24th through December 27th for the Christmas Holidays; we will be re-opening next Monday, December 28th.

 

We’d like to wish all of you a wonderful and warm Holiday Season, complete with plenty of hugs, smiles and kisses! Merry Christmas to all, and a Happy New Year! 

New Japanese Akoya Pearls at PurePearls.com!

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

Hi Everybody!

 

I have some very exciting news about our 6.5-7.0mm Akoya pearls; as of today, PurePearls.com will be focusing exclusively on our new line of very fine, very lustrous, simply stunning Japanese Akoya pearls! Our new Japanese Akoya line is virtually spotless, featuring crisp, razor-sharp luster and gorgeous coloration that is oh-so drool worthy (see the pictures below taken with my Dinky Digital™ today for color examples).

 

Our continual desire to provide a wide range of pearl jewelry choices for all of our customers has led us in this new direction; the lack of availability of high quality Chinese Akoya in this size range, as well as multiple environmental disasters for Chinese pearl farms for the past few years, combined to help make this decision an easy one. You may notice a slight price increase due to the upgrade which we do regret, however I think at the end of the day, you’ll be totally, completely satisfied with the quality and beauty of every strand of Japanese Akoya pearls purchased through PurePearls.com. Enjoy!

New Custom Design from PurePearls.com!

Friday, December 4th, 2009

Hi Everybody!

 

I haven’t posted any custom work in a long time, but I’ve finally finished a very special project that has been in the works for awhile and I thought it would be fun to share the results. Presenting the Freshwater Cluster Necklace! Ta Daa! We hand-selected, drilled and mounted 30 white Freshwater Pearls- AAA Quality of course- ranging from 6.0mm up to 9.0mm. Each pearl was hand-stationed on the 18-Inch open-link chain with solid 14KY jump-rings which cut down on labor (no soldering) and has an added bonus: she can customize the placement of each pearl on the chain herself should she desire to do so at a later time. Pretty neat, huh?

 

Also later on down the road when she’s ready it will be easy to send the necklace back to us to add more pearls- mostly 8.0-9.0mms, with some 7.0-8.0mms mixed in- to make the design appear absolutely bursting with pearls! I hope you all enjoy the photo- I tried to post both the original sketches I did (complete with notes) as well as the finished piece, but alas, I am tech savvy, but not that tech savvy!
