Sculptural Pearl Lariat Necklace with Mother-of-Pearl Marquise Motif
A lariat-length pearl necklace composed with an intentional, architectural rhythm: a tapered cascade of luminous pearls framed by a sculptural centerpiece of marquise-cut mother-of-pearl. The design reads as mid-century-to-late-20th-century atelier work—part adornment, part object—balancing softness (pearl luster) with crisp nacre geometry.
Finished with screw-together barrel ends for a secure closure and a streamlined neckline profile. A piece that performs equally well with a simple black dress, crisp shirting, or layered over knitwear for quiet drama.
