Description

View Vintage Genuine Mother of Pearl Shell Bead Graduated Necklace 18 inch Knotted with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Genuine mother of pearl shell beads. Silver tone spring ring clasp. Strung on white thread with a careful knot between each bead, the construction is honest and protective — each shell bead cushioned from its neighbor, the strand supple and draping beautifully. The ocean kept these for a long time before letting them go. Each bead carved from genuine mother of pearl shell — creamy white with the faintest whisper of butter yellow, translucent at the edges, luminous at the center — graduates gently from small at the nape to large at the décolletage, the way the finest bead necklaces have always been designed, because someone understood that proportion is everything. Strung on white thread with a careful knot between each bead, the construction is honest and protective — each shell bead cushioned from its neighbor, the strand supple and draping beautifully. The silver tone spring ring clasp is simple and secure, letting the beads speak for themselves. Genuine mother of pearl shell beads. Hand-knotted. Graduated. Silver tone spring ring clasp.
