July PP Sale

[renwea]

If I lay the bracelet out on a ruler, it measures just under 7 Inches. Thats not counting the part of the clasp that goes into the ball. I took out 2 of the large black pearls and two of the really small pearls next to the clasp. You could always play with the length with what pearls you take out. It took me two stringing attempts to get it right. I used black beaders secret to string it.

No-Normanrockwell, thank you for posting those pictures! I totally see what you mean about that one pearl. PP is so great, I am sure they will be able to fix that for you. I love the way that strand looks when worn long!

Pkinnew, I love the petal strand! Seriously, I almost went for it; but, I couldn't quite see how it might look on or get a feel for the scale. You got a great buy with that one! Thanks for the pictures! They just might push me over the edge in a future sale for a similar item.

relysa - I think the green Tahitian tin cup looks great on you - perfect color! And those Edison studs are striking. Great job!

thank you pkinnew! I love them!

 

[pkinnew]

renwea - I love what you did to that bracelet and the Kamokas are so gorgeous! And the necklace is so cute! Great buys!

 

[renwea]

Oh my, I thought large pearls were my thing, but these 50" oval 5mm came today from the sale. Love them! The luster is incredible.

 

[bsomlo]

Those are gorgeous!!! How are they measured? Perhaps width across, not drill-hole to drill-hole, because they look longer than 5mm.

Enjoy and wear in health!

 

[renwea]

They feel small and delicate to me. I was worried about the no clasp because I love the triple look. I wrap it and pull it tight before wrapping again. Then even it out once on. I have loved every purchase from this Sale.

 

[pkinnew]

renwea - That is a gorgeous rope! They do look larger than 5 mm and I love it tripled. Congratulations!

 

[renwea]

I'm going to be a picture hog and post some more. Look at the luster on this necklace. And notice the silver tones on a couple of the kamokas.

 

[bsomlo]

Ooh, great close-up!

I love smaller MM pearls tripled or more! Very substantial while still being delicate! A great look!

and I am glad a PSer nabbed that Kamoka Bracelet! Its outstanding!

 

[JanesJewels]

Does anybody know when the sale ends? I couldn't see anything about it on the PP website, but I know some people get email updates/read the blog/know the Facebook page, etc. Thanks!

Both look great on you. I especially love the Kamoka bracelet

I haven't received anything today but my understanding was that they were going to update the website on Tuesdays with new sale items. I'll let you know if I hear anything!

Refresh . . . refresh . . . refresh. No work is getting done this morning, lol.

 

[ltlmsmfft]

It's weird that their live chat feature is not up right now. I wonder if they are having technical difficulties.

Those 50" oval pearls are tdf! I have been thinking about them since they were posted; but, I kind of don't have the cash to spend right now. I was wondering if they could be trippled without a clasp. Thank you for posting!

I kept checking the PP website every 15-30 minutes today too. And nothing!

 

[pkinnew]

Per Jeremy they added a few items but they're concentrating on the Tahitian special next month.

 

[Elysian]

Lovely purchases, everyone!

I ordered a 35 inch white metallic strand 7-8mm from the sale. I love the length! I actually have a 24 inch that I wanted to connect to wear as a rope once in awhile. I haven't reached for the 24 inch for some reason; it's an awkward length on me. Amazing the magic of certain lengths.

Jeremy said Time Warner internet is down on their side of town. They hope to be back tomorrow full speed.

 

[doubledouble]

I was shocked to see the 7.5-8mm white Freshadama necklace and full set go on sale for 25% off! Most of the sale items seem to have been premade for the sale, but this must be one of the most popular items they sell in such a classic color and size. I have been wanting my "classic pearls set" for a while now, and decided to spring for the full set while they are on sale. I requested to have the bracelet shortened (5 1/4" wrist...) and for rose overtones. I can't wait!!!

 

[bsomlo]

doubledouble -- Good for you!!! I can hardly wait to see your new set on you!

 

[pkinnew]

doubledouble - That was one of the best buys during the sale! Classic set of the highest quality fw pearls. Congratulations!

 

[katbran]

Wow , everyone managed to grab a great buy ! Well done. Those glowing little white ovals are so pretty! And I love the Tahitian bracelet. Great buys all around !

 

[Frost Me]

Wow love the large Edison, the triple strand and everyones purchashes. I order the White Metallic 35.5 inch strand, haven't seen it yet. Please everyone post your pictures from the sale ASAP!

 

[doubledouble]

My Freshadama set arrived today. The luster on the pearls is all I could ask for and they are mostly very round with a few slight potatoes near the end of the strand. The bracelet fits great!

I was sad not to receive the gold "P" charm on the necklace as bracelet as pictured! I thought this was part of the Freshadama line, and even the text in the description touts how the P charm is exclusive to Freshadamas. Instead I got an oval tag with the business name printed on it- definitely something I would remove before wearing, especially on the bracelet.

Another weird thing is that the earrings came just clipped together in a bag, when my other pair of 7.5-8mm Freshadama studs came in an earring box as did my AAA studs at the same size and even my 6.5-7mm metallics.

I guess between the charm and the earring packaging it feels like I got the "sale Freshadamas" instead of the normal line. The pearls are very nice though. ,

Hi Doubledouble,

My freshadamas also had the oval tag instead of the P charm so it may be that they have changed it. My multicoloured necklace was ordered in early May and the white metallic in early July.

 

[bsomlo]

They do look very round and lustrous. Maybe they were pre-packaged this way for the sale. If you like that PP charm, I suggest you contact them. They do aim to please.

Hi Doubledouble,

My freshadamas also had the oval tag instead of the P charm so it may be that they have changed it. My multicoloured necklace was ordered in early May and the white metallic in early July.

I have the 9.0-9.5nm Freshadama necklace - got it last Halloween. They did not come with a "P" charm nor any oval tag. I never questioned it or minded.

 

[doubledouble]

They are lovely! I got some ear/neck/wrist shots up on the roof. I was worried they'd be too small but I'm very happy with the size.

I will think about contacting them about the other charm- I was just surprised when I unwrapped them and it was different than the picture.

 

[bsomlo]

Absolutely beautiful, classic pearl set. Wear them in health.
