Pearl Necklace with Metallic Luster Are Cultured Chinese Freshwater Pearls

About the Item

This striking, unique necklace is composed of 35 cultured Chinese freshwater pearls. These undyed, naturally-colored pearls gleam with prismatic rainbow colors as light slides over their rippled, dimpled surfaces. They have an amazing metallic luster that gives them an almost otherworldly beauty, as if these pearls were harvested from a mercury lake on Titan. The necklace measures 32" in length and the pearls are set at stations along the length of an oxidized silver chain. The necklace fastens with a toggle closure. You can wear it as one long strand or double it. You can even wrap it around your wrist and wear it as a bracelet. Perfecty unisex, this is one pearl necklace that any guy would feel comfortable wearing. The pearls range in size from approximately 11 to 13mm in diameter. The demand for high-quality cultured freshwater pearls from China such as these exceeds the supply. For decades, Japan's legendary cultured Akoya saltwater pearls have been the gold standard for cultured pearls. But our tastes have evolved. Perfectly spherical pearls in carefully calibrated sizes, each with a flawless unblemished surface no longer reflects the modern aesthetic. Today, rippled, dimpled pearls of irregular sizes and shapes; pearls bursting with individuality and character are what more people seek. This is not Jackie Kennedy's triple-strand pearl necklace. This is the pearl necklace reinvented.

    Located in Southbury, CT
    This classic 19" pearl necklace is composed of 50 cultured freshwater pearls from China that range in size from 8.5mm to 10mm, with most being 9mm or larger. The pearls have been hand-strung on thick, sturdy white silk and knotted between each pearl. Instead of being strung from smallest to largest, the pearls were selected at random. This has the effect of creating a necklace that appears uniform in size overall. It is finished with a rhodium-plated silver clasp. The pearls are round to near-round and have thick, luxurious nacre. Chinese freshwater pearls now rival Japanese cultured Akoya pearls...

  • Long Pearl and Gemstone Necklace
    Located in Southbury, CT
    Naturally-colored South Sea Keshi, baroque Tahitian, luminous Akoya, and Chinese freshwater pearls are strung together with glassy aquamarine and tourmaline crystals to create a luxuriously long -36"- and effortlessly beautiful necklace that you will never tire of wearing. The simple gilded silver hook-and-eye clasp can be worn around the back or off to the side. You can wear this stunning, one-of-a-kind necklace full-length, doubled, or even wrapped several times around your wrist as a bracelet. Layer it with your favorite South Sea or Akoya pearl necklace for an instant update to your jewelry wardrobe. The pearls are all high-quality and were carefully chosen for their beauty and character. Rich eggplant tones combine with pewter, pink, green, silver, and gold to create a statement necklace that doesn't overpower. I love this piece. It's so well-made and Keshi pearls, as you probably already know, are an accident of the pearl culturing process that results in a free-spirited, 100% nacre pearl. In composition, Kwshi pearls are identical to natural, uncultured pearls...
