SIX STRANDS OF CLASSIC PEARL GLAMOURSome pearl necklaces are meant to be subtle.This isn’t one of them.This beautiful 25-inch statement necklace takes the timeless elegance of ivory pearls and multiplies the effect with an extraordinary cascade of individual strands.The result is lush, dimensional and wonderfully glamorous—a necklace substantial enough to transform a simple black dress, silk blouse or evening ensemble all by itself.Rather than using dramatically different bead sizes to create the effect, the necklace is composed of remarkably consistent round faux pearls measuring approximately 1/4 inch (6–7 mm). The numerous strands create the drama.The pearls have a warm creamy ivory coloration with a soft, elegant luster. Against dark clothing, particularly black, navy, burgundy or deep green, the effect is striking.BEAUTIFULLY CONSTRUCTEDLook beyond the dramatic appearance and there are some particularly nice construction details.The pearls are individually drilled with remarkably uniform openings and are strung on double twisted thread, providing a more substantial foundation for the multiple strands.At approximately 25 inches long, the necklace falls into the longer matinee-length range, allowing the strands to drape naturally across the upper chest rather than sitting tightly against the neck.The numerous pearl strands terminate in oversized polished gold-tone spherical end pieces, creating a beautiful transition between the pearl work and the lobster-style clasp.It is an impressive piece both from across the room and upon closer inspection.CONDITIONThis necklace is in very good pre-owned condition.The pearl surfaces present beautifully, with no obvious significant damage noted. The drill holes are remarkably consistent, with extremely little visible damage or wear surrounding them.The double-threaded strand construction remains intact.As with virtually all previously owned jewelry, extremely minor signs of age, handling or storage may be visible under close magnification.Please examine the photographs, including the close-up images, as they are part of the description and provide an excellent representation of the actual necklace.DETAILSLength: Approximately 25 inches
