—-> I recently found my self within proximity of things I had not known much about. Quickly finding it to be another example of nature & the ways in which it integrates information.
—-> Pearls.
Specifically South Sea & Tahitian pearls.
Pearls seem to have a sort- of- sea- / environmental- test strip -type characteristic. Maybe a variation of rings on a tree? , .. they all can tell stories. We just need to learn their language..
Tides, food, over population, under population, generations, temperature all pass through & leave influence in the growth of pearls individually & collectively.

All online inquiries ended quietly. Auto-returns were coming back on emails more often than not.
Once on the land, the narrative was equally unexpected.
Store fronts / last known address’ were empty, gone, as if the tide of industry came & went. Phone lines dead or not who it’s supposed to be. Being under the wing of someone who also speaks fluent native tongue didn’t even save us.
Pearls from the area were something that a decade ago was actually being promoted as “come to the farms, tour, talk and possibly purchase.” kind of tourism.
With not even a starting point of contact, the South Sea pearls actually came down to the last 2/3 hours i was in Indonesia (& physically sent weeks later). Literally in the car on the way to the airport .
Before then we eventually did find & return with many grams of fun shaped freshwater pearls. All have a glow that will be great to work with.

It all came to crossing paths with someone whom you’ve seem to have known for awhile. Rekindling & continuing these old unions.
Some things have a pace that we’ve begun to forgotten about.
In times of two day shipping and finding anything and everything through endless possibilities of scrolling on the internet. More often then not it seems to come down to us starting a conversation with new people.
Our stories are powerful.
I’m looking forward to building up (work) to & harmonizing the pearls with silver.
see you soon Bali family
