My "Pearling" Story...

This necklace is another beautiful estate find. I think this one is older than the "Tin Cup" design, but certainly is it's pre-cursor. My guess is that it would probably look better with something other than this dusty rose shirt, but I hadn't worn it in a while and just felt like putting it on even though it wasn't a great color match. I love the tiny diamonds in the center part where the two strands come together and make the tail.

These may not be Paspaley South Sea Pearls, but I love them just the same! I found these lovely 14K white gold diamond pearl mounts on a clearance site and decided to make an "ensemble" with South Sea pearls. I just love this classic set. There appears to be an imperfection on the pearl but it is actually a reflection of my phone-the finish is just like a satin mirror.
