A very lovely matinee length strand of graduated pearls. These glowing cultured pearls are hand knotted on white silk and finished with a 14k white gold filigreed bead clasp. A safety chain has been added for extra security. This strand of pearls is just the right length to wear alone or layered with other necklaces. A strand of pearls is a wardrobe essential everyone needs. Circa 1950.

Cultured pearls are created by adding an irritant, such as a grain of sand or small bead, to a pearl oyster to encourage it to cover the irritant in nacre, thus creating a pearl.

Details....The necklace measures 20" long. The pearls graduate from 3.7mm to 9.3mm in diameter. In Very Good Vintage Condition. You should always expect some wear on Vintage and Antique Jewels, we consider it a part of the charm.
