A pearl necklace, given a deeper blue.
Real freshwater pearls carry the strand. Lapis lazuli and sterling silver beads break it at intervals, so it never reads as the plain strand everyone expects.
Soft at a distance, detailed up close. A piece for every day that still gets looked at twice.
Lapis, for what it has long been worn for.
An intense blue stone, long worn as a stone of self-knowledge, confidence and calm. We set it at 8mm among the pearls, so the blue comes back all the way around the neck.

Yes
This necklace captures the distinguished and playful nature I was going for. The pearls give it a classy look while the different colors and the lapis stones stand out without detracting from the elegance.
Where it sits
The same neck at three of the lengths this piece is made in, worn in other Polite necklaces. The Grounded Necklace is made in 16, 17, 18, 18.5, 19 and 20 inches. Find where you want it to sit, then pick it above.

Product specification
Why it is made the way it is.
Natural freshwater pearls, because no two are quite alike
Real pearls at 7 to 8mm, each a little different in tone and surface, so the strand you receive is its own.
Lapis and silver at 8mm, because the pearls need something to answer them
Deep blue stone and bright sterling silver sit among the pearls, on a sterling silver chain with a rhodium finish.
Made in Los Angeles, because the studio can then make it fit
16 to 20 inches as standard. Another length by a note at checkout, or by email.

Current timings from the shipping policy. Tracking is emailed the moment it ships.
Yes, and shipping is complimentary on international orders above $500. Import duties and taxes are set by your country and collected by the carrier on delivery, so they are yours rather than ours.
Shipping policy. Refusing delivery over unpaid duties does not get the order refunded, so it is worth checking your local rate.

Necklace size guide
1. Measure and cut a piece of string to the same length as the necklace you are eyeing. We recommend using a classic measuring tape. Our measurement standard is based on inches, for sizing in centimeters please convert from inches to centimeters.
2. Place it around your neck to see where it falls. The key to layering is striking the right balance. Consider the size and shape of the necklace including the roundness of your pearls based on the size of the pearl. We always recommend sizing up by half of an inch for a comfortable fit.
3. Repeat the process to see how necklaces of different lengths may look together if you prefer to layer your necklaces.
