Why interrupt a strand of pink pearls?

Pink pearls run most of the way round. Then the strand breaks into gold and green, three times, and it stops looking like the necklace everyone expects.

The pink keeps it soft. The 14k gold and the malachite give it weight at the collarbone, where it is seen first.

Natural, so never quite repeated.

Natural freshwater pearls differ in tone and surface, and so does malachite, whose bands are laid down by the stone itself. No two strands come out exactly alike.

The one you receive is yours alone.

  • Natural pink freshwater pearls, 8mm
  • Malachite beads, each set between two of gold
  • 14k yellow gold beads and hardware

Why it is made the way it is.

Malachite, because of what it has long been worn for

The studio chose it for the meaning its listing gives the stone: the heart opened, and the nerve to break old patterns.

Gold beside the stone, because the green needs something warm next to it

Each malachite bead sits between two beads of 14k yellow gold. The hardware is 14k yellow gold as well.

Cut to your length, because a necklace that sits wrong never gets worn

16 to 20 inches as listed, and any other length on request: add a note at checkout or write to the studio.

What the price already includes.

Pieces in 14k gold sit outside every promotion, so the price is the whole story. This is what it includes.
