A handcrafted freshwater pearl necklace centered on a sculptural pearl bow - a design that takes one of jewelry's most recognizable silhouettes and renders it entirely in cultured freshwater pearl, creating a piece that reads at once playful and refined. The bow centerpiece, constructed from genuine pearls rather than metal or ribbon, is the kind of detail that earns a second look: it has the familiar warmth of a bow motif but with the organic luster of natural pearl material, giving it a depth and richness that a metal bow simply cannot produce. The strand itself is strung with white cultured freshwater pearls interspersed with 18k gold plated brass beads, adding warm metallic rhythm to the pearl sequence without interrupting the necklace's cohesive natural tone. At 17.5 inches with a 2-inch extender, the length sits between collarbone and chest, adaptable across necklines. Specifications: Metal: 18k gold plated brass beads and accents. Stone: white cultured freshwater pearl, natural cultured. Centerpiece: sculptural pearl bow. Length: 17.5 inches plus 2-inch extender (adjustable to 19.5 inches). Closure: lobster claw clasp. Approx. 2.08" W at widest point. Weight: 10.9g. FAQ: Is the bow centerpiece made from actual pearls? Yes - the bow is constructed from genuine cultured freshwater pearls, not metal, ribbon, or resin. How do I style a bow necklace? The bow centerpiece works particularly well against simple, minimal necklines - a V-neck or scoop neck allows the pendant to read clearly. Avoid busy patterns that compete with the bow's detail.
