Mother of Pearl Necklace

12 Sep in Jewellery | Comments (1)

I bought some strands of the most beautiful Mother of Pearl at a jewellery exhibition I went to recently. I’ve used one of the strands for this necklace which will be wonderful for the cooler months when we all wear our autumn colours.

It’s full of browns and greens and I have added some of my favorite Rose Gold Beads and a Rose Gold Clasp. The mother of pearl has such a gorgeous shimmer and are reassuringly heavy and so I have strung them in the traditional way of stringing pearls – which is to knot between each one. It’s a labour and time intensive way of stringing, but it’s worth it as it allows the necklace to drape perfectly and should the strand ever break you will not loose all the lustrous pearls.

As this is a one off piece it will not be added to the Twinkleberry site, so contact me at: jenni@twinkleberry.co.uk if you love it and would like some more information about it.
