| This is how it looks to me: the large pearl doesn't look like a clasp but simply a pearl with a large hole through which the multiple strands of thread were passed, and the large pearl was centered. On either side of the pearl, the amethyst and pearl beads were then strung on each thread.
It looks to me like the necklace is put on like a scarf-- with the large pearl in front. It looks to be then twisted, then wrapped around the back of the neck, then tied loosely in front.
If I'm correct, this looks very easy to make. |
