18 inch White 8-8.5mm Pearl Necklace
A classic white pearl necklace such as this one is the mainstay of every jewelry box. This is the perfect necklace with that black dress or evening gown…or even for that white dress worn on a very special day. This 18 inch necklace features 8-8.5mm white freshwater pearls matched with a classic 14k gold fluted ball-clasp. The length is perfect for average to larger sized women who wants a traditional princess length necklace. For a more petit 16 inch style see our ACELINE Necklace which is the same necklace only two inches shorter. The pearls on this necklace are near-round cultured freshwater pearls of very good quality. Freshwater pearls, unlike their saltwater cousins (such as Akoya pearls), are composed of almost 100% nacre. This means that they will hold their beauty and last a lifetime or longer.
This is perhaps the most extravagant and spectacular piece in the Tahizea Collection…but surprisingly its price doesn’t reflect the Wow-appeal of this necklace. This a luxurious assortment of 77 pearls 9-10mm in size along a necklace that measures a full 35.8” (91cm) in length. The pearls are of wondrously diverse colors with green being the dominant color. The pearls are generally off-round and bear the circular markings common to Tahitian pearls. The French-Tahitians call this marking Cirćle and feel that it gives Tahitian pearls their unique character. This necklace can be worn full “Opera” length. Or doubled up (or double up and twisted) for a dramatic two-strand look. The clasp ads to the class of this piece depicting two Tahitian motu or islets. The “islet” rings join when slid together at the point of a narrow slit in each ring. Pearls are unique, each one a distinct individual. The pearls in your piece may not match exactly the pearls shown in the photography. Consistent with the current fashion trend, the pearls chosen for this piece will always be un-matching.
For those who prefer a shorter necklace, the HEIMITI Necklace provides the answer. This necklace is like the longer TOPARA nui Necklace only shorter. Thirty-one 9-10mm Tahitian pearls grace this necklace. The clasp like those used on all the TOPARA necklace and bracelet is style after the “motu” or small islets and atolls of French Polynesia. Slide the two rings together at the point where two narrow slits in each ring meet. This necklace is 15” (38mm) so that it hugs close to the neck. Pearls are unique, each one a distinct individual. The pearls in your piece may not match exactly the pearls shown in the photography. Consistent with the current fashion trend, the pearls chosen for this piece will always be un-matching.
