Character Multi Toned Graduated Freshwater Pearl Necklace Character Multi Toned Graduated Freshwater Pearl Necklace
Description: These would have to be my favourite type of pearl! They have so much character, gorgeous colours and shimmery lustre. Surfaces are wrinkly, metallic and bumpy and they wear their blemishes proudly. Blemishes consist of some gaps in the upper lavers of nacre, allowing the lower levels to shine through (see pics).
Shapes are round to baroque, some ovals. They are very heavy.
Character pearls have the most amazing rich colours, here we have purple, lavender, lilac, pale gold and peach. .
I've strung them on powerpro with oxidised sterling silver daisy spacers and I love the way they look together.
Grade: A+
Pearl Size: 11.9 at the front down to 9.3mm at the clasp. Most between 10.5mm - 11mm.
Length: 18.5 inches (46.99cm)
Clasp: Handmade fine silver hook and eye.
Price: 210.00 AUD + Postage
Item Number: 1355

Any opinions? Any opinions?
Description: Whopping character pearls (which I do love) teamed with purple shades of keshi cornflake pearls (otherwise known as belly drilled petals). the cornflake pearls gently cup the big rounded pearls. I've strung them on Powerpro for a couple of reasons:
They are very heavy.
I live in the tropics and am likely to sweat (perspire sounds better but I'm afraid here we sweat!) on them in the Wet Season (now), with powerpro I can wash them with no problem.
I have to test these (heh heh.. read KEEP). I put the cornflakes all the way to the clasp, so far they are quite comfortable, no irritation, I can't even feel the cornflakes. Even with the weight and these are very hefty.
I'd love to know what you think. Meanwhile I'll just keep on 'testing' them :o)
Thank you: Kerry and Valerie!!
