I love working with pearls in just about any configuration, just so long as they are interesting. While I love my own traditional opera-length strand of cultured pearls which I've had for years, in making pearl necklaces, I have sought non-traditional forms of pearls, motly freshwater, that come in very strange shapes. The little Keshi or "cornflake" pearls in this piece are almost silver-gray. With the natural branch coral which came from a 1920s strand, this piece turned out to be organic and yet very classic. SOLD.
