Vintage Pearl Necklaces
The pearls in each necklace in this collection have been carefully cleaned and the necklaces are re-strung and knotted on fine white silk. The clasps, if in good working condition are the originals, unless noted.
​
The boxes are sold with the pearls and are included in the final price and are mostly those that came with the pearls, or they are of a similar era.
​
More photographs of each necklace are available on request.
