The TRIO Necklace from Tahizea’s Kanao Collection is a luxurious leather cord necklace for men or women featuring three 10mm Tahitian pearls separated by sterling silver spacers and finished by flared flanges that taper onto the leather cord. Accenting the piece is a small medallion bearing the mark to the ancient Tahitian tribes. The necklace has no clasp but instead slips over the head and is fully adjustable to between 15” and just under 19”. This necklace represents the top of this line of leather cord necklaces and is just an incredible piece on either a man or a woman.
This necklace like others in the AVAE series focuses on the beauty of the pearl. In this case an 11-11.5mm Tahitian beauty of greenish hues. Like the AVAE toru necklace, this necklace has two tapered flanges that frame the pearl and transition to the cord in graceful fashion. However this necklace also features a large silver rounded-square bead featuring the mark of the ancient tribes of Tahiti least we forget the origin of this magnificent gift of the sea. The necklace has a sterling silver clasp and is adjustable between 16.5” and 20.5” in length.
This is a wonderful design that speaks directly of Tahitian pearls and their origin. The sterling silver pendant depicts a motu or an islet much like the small islands that fan out across the Gambier and Tuamotu archipelago where Tahitian black pearls are found. Set within the motu pendant is a solitary 10mm Tahitian pearl. The 21.5” chain length makes this piece ideal for men or larger women. For those wanting a shorter length we offer the same design called MOTU Vahine which is on a chain just over 17.5”.
