While walking the floor of the Hong Kong Jewellery and Gem Show we found ourselves returning to the Galatea booth daily. Chi, the founder is a true artist and visionary, creating some of the most interesting pearls at the show. Some purists may cringe at the thought of carving up a perfect Tahitian pearl but you can't deny the skill and aesthetics of these one of kind pearls. I strongly suggest you check out Chi's website to view his entire collection:

I don't have any plans to sell Galatea on Pearls Of Joy but Alana couldn't resist picking up a few of the turquoise nucleated pearls for her own creations.
Her she is with Chi, the founder and artist responsible for Galatea, looking very happy with her new purchases.
