    I make a lot of jewelry with baroque and twinned pearls. When making earrings, matching those baroques and twins are a real test of observation and patience!

    Absolutely love pearls in any form; tho I’d love the next video you do based on Sugilite & Richterite due to me being really interested in them at the moment as well as that there’s no video information that’s out there besides metaphysical info. I’d love to learn the history of its discovery and what causes their color differences

    Hi, Any chemical or liquid combination can create a bright white light transparent crystals and that continues to glow for upto 1 month or more. Is it possible to make it ?

    Have to admit I don’t know anything about pearls, might be a stupid question but when you harvest the pearls do the oyster’s die or can they be re-implanted with another nucleus sac?

    Real natural pearls are where it's at...the ones where they stick a thing in them on purpose to cover it in pearl just isn't the same.

    You look too much towards someone watching, director... camera person, it's a little annoying. Sorry, I know that's just my opinion, it just seems like it should be about a conversation between you, her and us not someone we can't see standing their.

    What you’re seeing is Sarah making sure that Gina’s pieces can be seen in the overhead camera. Since we only had a short time with Gina and her amazing pearls, we wanted to make sure you got to see every one of them.
