Pearl Station Necklace

The piece

Pearls are spaced along a fine chain, so each one seems to float at the collarbone rather than sit in a row. It is the necklace we reach for when nothing should compete with the wearer, the pearls doing quiet, deliberate work rather than making noise. The chain is fine enough to disappear against the skin, leaving only small points of light where each pearl rests. Equally at home over a sweater, where it peeks out at the neckline, or against bare skin for evening, this freshwater pearl necklace moves with you rather than sitting stiff. Layer it with a longer chain for depth, or wear it alone for restraint. It makes an easy, thoughtful gift for someone who prefers quiet jewellery.
