Cuban Queen Crazy Chick says:Thank you, Julia! Surprisingly, these are some of my favorite stones. Have you seen the champagne pearls in person yet?

Smoky Rose says:I have, I have! I like em! not as golden as they look on the screen – a very pretty soft muted champagne, I’d say

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Smoky’s right about the color of the pearls — definitely not as golden as they appear on screen, but still pretty. Looking forward to getting some keishi ones.
This pick reminds me of a lovely, silky robe that a lady would don after her relaxing bubble bath! The colors are so soft and silky-looking! Do you have a robe in these shades, Ivy? It would look beautiful on you with your dark hair!
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:13 pm #
Cuban Queen Crazy Chick says:Thanks for that, Smoky. It’s disappointing when your order doesn’t quite look the same as on the screen, but I guess it’s inevitable, as each strand varies and so do computer screens.
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:16 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Ivy, I’ve often wondered if it’s my monitor or the beads!!! LOL
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:16 pm #
Smoky Rose says:I just pulled mine out – see if I can thoroughly confuse you now….
they are a little more golden than the rice you have in this pick, but far more oyster, muted, than the ones that just came back into stock the other day look on the screen… make sense?

Smoky Rose says:why do i have to make life difficult? just held my baggie up to the keshi – they’re that color
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:25 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Smoky, there is no emoticon for a totally puzzled and confused-looking face!!! LOL
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:28 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:I do think I understand what you’re describing……I think……maybe……kind of……sort of……in a round about way. LOL
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:30 pm #
Cuban Queen Crazy Chick says:LOL! Ditto, Lynn! Totally confused here, too! I’ll just assume that they’re pretty close! Oh, and I think it’s a little bit of both, the beads AND the monitors.
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:32 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:I agree with both of your statements, Ivy!!!
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:32 pm #
Mary S - Sweet Chick says:I also have the champagne rice pearls and Yes, they are gorgeous.
So is this pick!!
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:38 pm #
Cuban Queen Crazy Chick says:Thanks, Sweet Chick! So let me ask you, are they closer in color to the new keishi, or the rice? Or somewhere in between? Cuz I’m really hoping they have that golden tint like the keishi do.
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:41 pm #
Smoky Rose says:sorry….. didn’t mean to confuse, that’s just the add/talk in circles, coming out in me….. I’d say they are close to the keishi…. – a tint – perfect word, Ivy. a tint.
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:43 pm #
Smoky Rose says:bottom line (oh no, she’s talking again, please Mar, we don’t all have ritalin to take and follow the bouncing ball…) bottom line, like Sweet Mary says, they ARE gorgeous
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:46 pm #
Cuban Queen Crazy Chick says:LOL It’s ok, Smoky, I think I kinda understood what you were saying.
It can be hard sometimes to describe the subtleties in color variation. I guess I will just have to see the pearls for myself! Any excuse to buy more beads is a good one!!

Smoky Rose says:On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:48 pm #
Mary S - Sweet Chick says:I have had mine for quite a while and are more like the color of the rice pearls.
Having said that, each ‘lot’ of beads can be different in tone. So who knows what you’ll get since the rice pearls are a “back in stock” item. Each dye lot can be different.
That’s just my uneducated guess.
Doesn’t tell you much does it?
On Jun 27, 2009 at 12:53 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Good point, Sweet Chick, about the dye lots. I hadn’t considered that. It really is hard to describe variations in color and shading. I think Smoky Rose is to be commended for her efforts!!!
Ivy, you’re right — any excuse for us to buy more beads!!! LOL

DOG Chick aka Angela says:Ok, y’all lost me a long time ago but I love this pick and all the wonder pearls, brass and rutilated quartz! Yummy!

Cuban Queen Crazy Chick says:Thank you, Angela!

Smoky Rose says:sorry – you know I mean well. that’s my que to go get some paperwork done, ladies! HAVE FUN! I’ll stop in later.
On Jun 27, 2009 at 1:20 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Bye, Smoky Rose! Talk with you later!
Enjoy your paper work. LOL
