Hmm, I didn't see a comment about this on fb, or anywhere ... hopefully it'll get resolved soon. Is it possible to purchase loose pearls from the website? Or through direct email request? What are your best purchase experiences?
I just wanted to share the 2 little Fijian keshis I got today. Silvery rose and seafoamy green. Delightful packaging with certificates for each of these two little little pearls. Intended to be set with this matched mismatched tourmaline pair. Cannot wait!
I will so look forward to watching this project. Sea and sand is perfect and the combination of the stones and pearls could be so elegant! Can't wait to see your design.
Soooooo ..... finally, my Sea and Sand earrings are done. I modelled the crescents using Blender and had them 3d printed/cast in silver. Then, the lovely goldsmith at Kaltschmidt's had them plated in rhodium and 18k yellow gold, respectively, set the stones and assembled the earrings. The (mis)matched tourmaline cushion pair is from The Gem Trader, the keshis are from J. Hunter, see above.
What I hadn't anticipated in my ummmm,
primitive ( ) design process, was the delightful little sounds they occasionally make when worn.
Such a sweet little tingle in the wind, just like ocean pebbles softly clicking against each other, moved by the waves.
I couldn't be more thrilled with how they turned out! (And now I want more keshis... )
