Single Strand White Pearl Necklace
The item is a single strand pearl necklace, approximately choker to princess length. It is composed of numerous small, uniformly sized white pearls, likely cultured or simulated, that appear to be round to near-round in shape. Each pearl exhibits a soft, slightly iridescent luster, typical of natural or cultured pearls, though the resolution does not permit confirmation of individual nacre thickness or surface blemishes. The pearls are individually knotted on a white thread, a common practice to prevent loss of all pearls if the strand breaks and to minimize abrasion between pearls. The stringing appears well-executed, with consistent spacing between knots. The necklace is secured by a visible clasp at one end, which appears to be a basic metal (possibly silver-toned or white gold-toned) box or tab-insert clasp, showing minimal wear or tarnish from the visible angle. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures visible in the image. Given its classic design and the smaller size of the pearls, it likely dates from the mid to late 20th century, a period when such pearl necklaces were very popular, or could be a more contemporary production imitating that style. The overall condition appears to be good, with no obvious signs of significant damage, discoloration, or missing pearls. The craftsmanship seems standard for mass-produced pearl jewelry, focusing on consistent pearl size and neat stringing.
