All auctions / Jewellery & Gems / Elegant Opera Length Akoya Pearl Necklace with White Gold & Ruby Clasp, c. 1980
Pearl necklaces are available in a wide variety of lengths - and that's precisely why they are so versatile! Whether sporty or elegant, each pearl necklace can enhance clothing in different ways: we recommend the classic "choker" (35-40 cm) for casual wear and business. For more festive occasions, the slightly longer "Matinée" necklace (50-60 cm) is ideal, and for a grand ball, the 70-90 cm long "Opera" length - also known as "Sautoir" - is a luxurious eye-catcher that can be worn single or double around the neck. This necklace consists of 112 shimmering saltwater cultured pearls, known as Akoya pearls. The pearls are all very round and uniform in size, their color is a uniform, slightly warm white. The surface of the pearls shows only few to medium growth characteristics. As pearls with a very good and medium lustre are combined with slightly pink and slightly green overlay, the necklace has a charming vibrancy and is never boring. The pearls are individually knotted. A stylized, flower-shaped decorative clasp in white gold holds six rubies and another pearl. With a length of 88 cm, this necklace belongs to the "opera length" - a classic choice for a visit to the opera, but also suitable for many other festive occasions. This precious piece came to us here in Berlin.
