Description

Natural freshwater pearls seem to tumble and float on a triple length of wide-linked silver chain.

It's a look that, in a less lavish presentation, makes me think of blowing soap bubbles in summer. In three strands, it simply becomes a river of pearls.

For this bracelet, I began with rich ivory freshwater pearls in two different styles. There are long oval 6mm rice pearls, and little roundish 4-5mm potato pearls.

Then, for sparkle, I added tiny 2mm microfaceted rondelles of fine white topaz. Every stone is painstakingly hand-wrapped in sterling silver wire and suspended from a three lengths of airy round-linked chain in gleaming sterling silver.

The bracelet pictured measures about 7.5 inches (18.2 cm) long, to allow for easy, graceful movement on the wrist. It is finished with a swansneck hook-and-eye clasp in Hill Tribes silver, which is my favorite for bracelets of this type.

Yours will be made precisely to your measure, and you will have your choice of clasps. It will ship no more than 5 days after your order is placed.

The poem? This one:

All the breath and the bloom of the year in the bag of one bee:
All the wonder and wealth of the mine in the heart of one gem:
In the core of one pearl all the shade and the shine of the sea:
Breath and bloom, shade and shine, -- wonder, wealth, and -- how far above them --
Truth that's brighter than gem,
Trust, that's purer than pearl, --
Brightest truth, purest trust in the universe--all were for me
In the kiss of one girl.
