Hi Everybody!
Prominent Pearl Sightings is BACK! And oh my goodness, did I really, truly, nearly miss Sandra Bullock getting nominated for an Oscar?!?! One of my very favorite actresses, Sandra Bullock (probably the nicest actress, ever!) chose to rock the very chunky, layered look with a collection of pearls for the recent premiere of The Proposal, in front of the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood, CA.
As for this fun and funky style, it looks as though her strands consist of a triple strand Akoya, one or two pearly Opera Length ropes doubled up, and some faux pearls with large chunky chain extenders and some other mixed media (dyed phooka shells?) along with some large baroque Freshwater pearls; combined with her near perfect “messy” up-do, she pulls off the casual LA Day at the Beach-turned-dinner look flawlessly. Bravo, Sandra and Good Luck at the Oscars! We’re rooting for you!!
Psst, Sandra… we love your pearls!!

Hi Everybody!
They’re hereeee! We’re proud to present our gorgeous new selection of rare Tahitian Drop Necklaces and Tahitian Baroque Multi-colors; and what a selection we have for you!! Ranging from smooth, Sky Blue pearls positively glowing with Orient, to the dramatic and daring layouts featuring Black, Copper and Silvery-White Tahitian pearls juxtaposed to create striking and eye-catching designs, there is something for everyone in our latest collection, at price points that can hardly be believed- we checked, twice.
Comparable Tahitian Drop Necklaces- at the few vendors currently offering these heavenly strands- are running close to $2,000.00-$3,000.00 each! So, we priced ours at about $850.00… Yes, I know- we’re terrible, awful, price-gouging monsters! J You know you love us! Below is a photo of my absolute favorite Tahitian Drop Necklace- Sky Blue and Silver with heavy Orient- the pearls glow purple! I’ll be a very sad Pearl Specialist when this necklace finds a home- these colors are so unique and rare in this intensity that when pearls like these come across your desk, you want to hide them away forever and ever in your ‘personal’ collection, but I’m afraid my personal stash is getting a teensy bit on the large side… Anyways- Enjoy!!! J

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!

Hi Everybody!
Ooh Halloween! It’s one of my absolute favorite Holidays where we can all indulge a bit in our Wild Side for one fun, spooky and thrilling night. Costume balls, masquerades and trick or treating galore! This year, my daughter wants to go as Alice in Wonderland (“the Gothic kind, Mom!”) and so I’ve been doing a little bit of research about creative ideas online here and there when today I stumbled across this ethereal and striking still of Anne Hathaway as the White Queen in the new Burton-directed Alice in Wonderland, starring Johnny Depp.
Now, I am always looking for ways to feature pearl treasures and fashion, and the costume designer has pulled off the pearl trim beautifully! The dress begins to recall some of the Victorian-era pearl excesses without being overly-indulgent, but still very beautiful and detailed. I hope you all enjoy Halloween’s Prominent Pearl Sighting!
Psst, Anne… we love your pearls!!!
