Button Hole Lariat

Description

Antique mother of pearl buttons have a wonderful luster and a special appeal. You can never just discard them. They were made enhance a special garment, but they don't wear out like fabrics do, so they are saved.

This lariat style necklace features one large mother of pearl button, which has a rainbow luster. It is set into a sterling silver bezel and suspended from an oval link chain. The button slips through a button hole fabricated from sterling silver at the other end of the chain. The button hole is a rectangle which has been given a sewn thread like texture. Above it on the chain, four smaller mother of pearl buttons are sewn onto both sides of a strip of silver with silk thread. The necklace is a sexy 23 inches, and the button pendant is an additional inch. The silver has been oxidized, which enhances the vintage feel of the entire piece.
