This beautiful piece is made of natural color soft nugget shaped pearls from Lake Biwa, Japan. The pearls range in size from 6-9mm. Each pearl has been re-knotted on white color thread. The clasp is solid 14K yellow gold. The length of this necklace makes it easy to slip right over the head, and the clasp can be used for your favorite charms. The luster on these pearls is AMAZING, even more so if you consider that they were harvested some 50 years ago!
These pearls were part of a long held family collection. Always a fan of the unusual, Rudolf Voll (Pacific Pearls) and family started collecting cultured Japanese freshwater pearls some 50 years ago. For more information on fresh water pearls from Lake Biwa, please read Fuji's article
