Hong Kong Jewellery & Gem Fair, June 2014

 Although it just seems like yesterday, we are headed back to Asia once again for one of the large, Jewelry and Gem shows in Hong Kong, taking place from June 19th through the 22nd.

In March, we brought team member Lynsey with us to experience what a pearl-sourcing trip is really like. This time we're going to bring a team member who has been with us for nearly a decade now - Elia! This is Elia's first trip ever to Asia, and we're excited to have her along. She is going to be working on product sourcing for our July promotion and the September Connoisseur promotion.

We have one busy week ahead of us, but as always, if there is something special or something particular you would like us to look for, please drop us an email. We will do our best!

    I just checked it out. It’s a bit difficult to make out, but I think that was sort of a “station-style” necklace. Hisano doesn’t think they are keshi. They are probably just really small freshwater because the large pearl is a single, dark Edison.

    It was on the Connoisseur Chat from August 1, 2013 at 29.52 – 30.00 but as the video is blurry I may have misunderstood. I thought the entire “chain” was 2 -3mm little keshi pearls, but might just have been stations of pearls. I have seen an entire “chain” of very tiny pearls a few times though. Hisano said earlier today she thinks she has some strands, so don’t worry bout looking through the chat. I’m sure you’ll find quite wonderful treasures we haven’t even imagined! Safe Travels and Happy Pearl Hunting!

    Did you know where (what minute) in the video it was?

    The strand I saw was on the Pearl Chat from late July, 2013 but the video is blurry so hard to be sure if it was akoya or … ? It was a longer necklace with some sort of bigger pearl pendant on, but it was the “chain” I loved … teeny, tiny glitzy little pearls made into a chain to hang any pendant on … WOW! Safe Travels and Happy Pearl Hunting :)

    Akoya keshi should be easy. Tiny Tahitian with orient and luster might be a bit more difficult.
