I think these Pearl Earrings are so pretty and they are my favorite pair. The Pearls move about freely inside of their little wire cages. The gemstones in the center are small Sapphires. I'm obsessed with Vintage Jewelry and things that are just a little unique!
If I recall correctly, I believe they were a 25th Anniversary gift from my Father. That would put the strand at about 43 years old. She never bought anything for herself and was the most generous person I ever knew. She loved this necklace and wore it to church every Sunday.
Me too pattye! All I get are Tiara's with pearls! The first thing that struck me when I first held them was how heavy the strand was. I weighed it at 38 grams. The clasp is heavy too and it snaps really tight! Thanks again for the information!
Thank you for the feedback! I do remember my Mom wearing them often. I have a couple more pictures of them. One is a close up of the clasp and the other is the little information sheet that came with them.
I inherited this strand of Cultured Pearls from my Mom. The clasp is 18k gold. I notice that the pearls seem to have lots of imperfections on them, does this mean they are of low quality? The strand is 24 inches and the pearls are 7mm in size. Thanks in advance for any information you might have.
