Hannah Blount | Sandbar Pearl Necklace

1 item left

A classic strand of luminous white pearls, hand-knotted on vivid red thread, is finished with a sculptural gold fishhook clasp for a subtle, artful contrast.

Freshwater baroque pearls are beloved for their gloriously irregular, non-spherical shapes and varying orient (the shimmering iridescence that appears to coat each pearl) and luster. Like all pearls, freshwater baroque pearls are formed when an irritant becomes trapped in a mollusk. The mollusk secretes a fluid, called nacre, which coats the irritant layer upon layer until a pearl is formed. These pearls originate from freshwater farms across Asia.
