This medium-length (26" / 66 cm) strand of hand-strung freshwater pearls was inspired by the strands of pearls worn by Virginia Indians in the 17th century. The necklace fits easily over the head and is an attractive length, hitting roughly halfway between the collar bone and bustline on most women.

Made from a random assortment of irregularly shaped freshwater pearls in natural shades of pink, peach, and white, these pearls have a more organic feel than your classic pearl necklace, but are equally elegant. Individual pearls vary between about 7 and 10 mm.

This is a wonderful strand of pearls!

Because pearls are a natural material, your necklace may vary slightly from the one pictured, but will be made from the same quality and size of beads. Custom lengths are also available. Convo me for prices and availability.
