About the Item

From the Orbit Collection - an 18 inch lustrous Akoya pearl necklace with an asymmetrically placed spiral, surrounded on either side by a 6mm heavy wall gold bead. The necklace is made with 7.5mm - 8mm white, round, lustrous Japanese Akoya pearls hand-tied with silk. This necklace is currently available in 2-tone- 14ky gold and argentium silver with a strong magnetic clasp. If you would like the spiral positioned differently, it can be re-tied and positioned to your liking. As it is positioned now, the spiral can be centered or worn slightly off center. The interlocking spiral is the foundation of the Orbit Collection. And what makes them fun as well as beautiful, the spirals move. Another customization you could add to this necklace would be adding some tiny diamonds in the gold spiral - and I have included a photo of how that might look. (This will effect the final price). A bit about Akoya pearls because they are so beautiful and special ... Originating in Japan, these bead-nucleated cultured pearls are infamous for being perfectly round in shape. Fine Akoya pearls feature incredibly sharp, and highly reflective Luster. Very fine Akoya are like looking into a convex mirror and display extremely detailed reflections – often you can see your face smiling back at you. Due to their perfectly round shapes, cultured Akoya pearls have a reputation for near-perfect matching. Akoya pearl strands will feature little to no variation from pearl to pearl throughout any given layout. Akoya pearls must be properly cared for to keep their crystal looking bright and shiny. These pearls are sensitive to oils, perfumes, smoke, chlorine and other chemicals found in our environment. Wipe them down with a damp, soft cloth every time after wearing to remove residues from the pearls' surfaces. The entire Martha Seely Design collection celebrates the universe, from the wind and clouds to planets, star clusters, comets and galaxies. The universe unites us all over the planet. No matter where we live, or our age, we all look up and see the sky, the stars, the sun.... and are in awe. We live in this amazing universe and are just starting to see it, in all it's glory. This is my tribute to this universal space where we all live.

14k Gold Dangle Earrings with White Akoya Pearls
By Martha Seely
Located in Carlisle, MA
These pearl earrings are the new power pearls - definitely NOT your grandmother's pearls. They are Medium Spiral Dangle Earrings from the Orbit collection in 14k spirals with a 20 gauge ear wire and a lustrous, 7-8.5mm Akoya pearl. The earrings hang 2". The double-spiral is about 1" tall by 3/4" wide. And because of the way it is made, the spirals move, creating a different earring depending on movements. They are lightweight and elegant - a non-traditional way to wear a beautiful pearl. This design is wearable with almost every outfit - except the gym and the most fancy events. I even wear them with my blue jeans, when I run to the grocery store. These are simple and without any added diamonds, but diamonds can be added. These earrings are hand finished and fabricated. Standard for these is a white Akoya...

Double Strand Akoya Pearl Necklace, Germany
Located in Southbury, CT
A double strand of huge, luxurious warm-toned cultured Akoya pearls -what a treasure! The most classic, timeless necklace there is: a double strand of large and fine cultured Akoya pearls in golden cream with a soft pink overtone. Akoya cultured pearls 8mm in diameter and larger are uncommon, which is why 8mm represents the dividing line between ordinary Akoya pearls and "luxury-sized" Akoya pearls. This vintage necklace features 87 pearls in two strands and the pearls measure between approximately 8.35mm to 8.93mm. The length of the inner strand is 15" while the outer strand is about an inch longer. So it wears like a 15 ½ necklace, sitting right over the hollow of your neck. The 9K yellow gold clasp is marked for J. Köhle, a German jewelry manufacturer in business since 1872. This is a weighty necklace, tipping the scales at just over 80 grams. That's a lot of weight for a 15 ½ inch necklace...
