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.
