OK, I've been on a pearl buying spree, actually it's been all kinds of jewellery...since I've been in the US. I thought that with my regular jeweller being in Singapore, I'd be shopping less but thanks to DB and futurefashionista, that has not been the case at all  !!!
So...here are my new tahitians....a menagerie of colors. It is a 10.7 x 13.5mm necklace with natural color browns, coppers, greens, grays and silver. The pearls are medium to heavy circle pearls with a medium to high lustre and measure 17 ¾" in length.
Here they are before they were strung (pic from futurefashionista):
They are quite lustrous and the blemishes just disappear when on the neck
Neck shot:
Here they are with my pistachio necklace:
Tell me to stop shopping!!!!! Arghhhhhhhhh.....

DiaDiva,
We, the people of the United States, owe you a great debt of gratitude for singlehandedly stimulating the economy and being the sole reason for the latest up tick in consumer and retail sales. 
Now when you get home and if you ever decide to liquidate your stash, please PM me first!

Thanks, Tricksi. I love this necklace. Unfortunately, this one and the white SS have never been worn out of the house yet...haha...
I'll get more opportunities to wear them when I get home to Singapore

MGR, you are hilarious!!! Glad to be of service . We definitely need the US economy to recover quickly because Singapore is so dependent on the US.
If I do decide to sell anything when I get home, I'll definitely PM you and post on DB.
I told my hubby something similar on Sunday when he bought a second-hand racing bike from a 17-year who decided road racing wasn't his thing and wanted to focus on mountain biking. This was going to be DH's training bike. He'd asked for a bit more than DH wanted to pay but I told him he'd be helping the US economy and encouraging the 17-year in his healthy lifestyle  . Plus he was young enough to be our kid so we were inclined to be more generous. Yikes, I could be the mother of a 17 year old  I still feel 30...hahaha....
