"Venetian Sunrise Necklace"

Sunrise in Venice
The east is blossoming! Yea, a rose,
Vast as the heavens, soft as a kiss,
Sweet as the presence of woman is,
Rises and reaches, and widens and grows
Large and luminous up from the sea,
And out of the sea, as a blossoming tree,
Richer and richer, so higher and higher,
Deeper and deeper it takes its hue;
Brighter and brighter it reaches through
The space of heaven and the place of stars,
Till all is as rich as a rose can be,
And my rose-leaves fall into billows of fire.
-Joaquin Miller

When my supplier showed me these perfectly exquisite yellow biwa pearls they left me breathless. Their quality is incredible. They are colored like the dawn. Truly. A lustrous pale gold with shimmers of pink and green. And as if that isn’t enough this long strand is punctuated by rondels of rhodochrosite, rose quartz and ornately carved vermeil beads. At the tips hang fat drops of greengold quartz in a matte finish with polished polka dots, with a matching bead placed at the midpoint of the strand. No, there is no clasp. The photos show several ways to wear this versatile prize, and if your imagination doesn’t lead you along, you can check out more ideas at www.flikr.com/photos/jbebert. This stunning strand of pearls is unique in its quality and design.

Vermeil is sterling silver with a heavy coating of gold. It wears very well and will give you years of pleasure in this fine piece. It should be maintained as you would sterling silver. This necklace will arrive in a beautiful satin-lined pearl folder, with a special tarnish-fighting insert. Full care instructions will be provided.

Necklace length: 50” (127 cm) width: 1” (2.5 cm)
All pieces are signed by the artist.
