Natural freshwater pearls - LARGO OPERA - Symbol of...

I am offering at auction a long OPERA pearl necklace in freshwater gray tones. The entire necklace has been hand-knotted with a knot after every pearl. The high-quality thread is a silk/cotton blend. The clasp is made of 925 sterling silver. The relationship between the pearls and Christianity stands out for its high spiritual value, symbolizing purity, salvation, and the Kingdom of Heaven. Its most famous reference is in the Parable of the Pearl of Great Value (Matthew 13:45-46), where Jesus compares it to the Kingdom of God, demanding total commitment to obtain it. The Church Fathers saw in this gem a metaphor of Christ as the Absolute Truth, or of humanity redeemed by Jesus’ sacrifice. Furthermore, the Book of Revelation describes the twelve gates of New Jerusalem as twelve giant pearls. Because of its brilliance and whiteness, sacred art and theology associated them with the chastity of the Virgin Mary and Christian virtues. Finally, its origin from the suffering of the oyster symbolizes the sanctification of the believer through trials. This type of long OPERA necklace stands out for its versatility, as it can be worn in different ways: Classic style: In a single loop, ideal to wear with high necklines, turtlenecks, or elegant evening dresses. Double wrap: Folded in half, works perfectly as a choker or two-strand necklace, adding a more casual touch. 1920s style: Can be worn knotted at chest height, a style historically popularized by fashion icons such as Coco Chanel. Material: Freshwater pearls - VERY SPECIAL Color: Dark Gray - VERY RARE Pearl shape: Baroque Disc Smooth surface with growth marks Pearl size: approximately 11 to 9 mm - VERY LARGE Necklace length: 83 cm - can be worn long or in 2 loops - LONG OPERA Clasp: 925 sterling silver - marked "925" Professionally hand-knotted with a knot after each pearl Quality thread, silk/cotton blend Gift box and protective pouch Photos are part of the description The display bust measures 22 cm in circumference (not for auction) The pearls have ocean powers, meaning it is possible to access the deepest thoughts and help make the best possible decisions. The sea, associated with much peace and tranquility, is also what the pearl offers with its magical powers. Although it is not all that it offers, it also protects from enemies; the sea is full of dangers, which is why this stone has accumulated so much protective power to prevent negative energies from accumulating and harming our life. That’s not all. The pearl provides positive energy to empower changes: if we want to move to a new city, if we are relocating, if we have changed jobs, or whatever the situation, it is possible that this spiritual stone as a talisman helps make all those things as good as possible. New projects can be enhanced by the pearl’s magical powers. Everything we set out to undertake will have all the positive force and help us achieve the expected success at the right moment. Things should never be rushed, because that’s when the pearl’s powers won’t work. The pearl’s healing powers should not be forgotten. First, it is necessary to mention that they help align the chakras, bringing greater calm, peace, tranquility, serenity, among other benefits. In life, this is considered fundamental for any person. Stress will leave our lives and emotions will balance. The pearl should be worn as close to our body as possible so that the body is revitalized.
