Lariat-Style Chocolate Pearl and Pavé Crystal Necklace

This jewelry piece consists of a sterling silver or silver-toned metal cable chain measuring approximately 18 to 20 inches in length. The focal point is a lariat-style pendant featuring a circular medallion set with numerous small, champagne or golden-colored pavé crystals arranged in a honeycomb pattern. Suspended directly beneath the medallion is a large, teardrop-shaped chocolate-colored freshwater or shell pearl. The pearl exhibits a smooth, high-luster metallic sheen characteristic of treated or dyed Tahitian-style pearls. The metal displays a bright, polished finish with no immediate signs of oxidation or heavy tarnish. The chain is secured with a lobster claw clasp, which appears to have a small rectangular tag nearby, likely for hallmarks such as '925'. The craftsmanship suggests a contemporary fashion jewelry piece, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century. The condition is excellent with no visible missing crystals or surface abrasions on the pearl. The overall aesthetic is sophisticated, blending warm earth tones with modern metallic brilliance.
