Sterling Silver Two-Tone Cultured Pearl Necklace

This item is a single-strand necklace featuring approximately thirty-seven oval-shaped pearls, commonly referred to as 'rice' or 'potato' pearls due to their slightly irregular, elongated form. The strand exhibits a distinctive alternating color pattern of creamy white and soft Sage-Olive green, suggesting the darker pearls may have been treated or dyed to achieve their hue. The pearls appear to range between 7mm to 9mm in length. The piece is secured with a traditional ball-style filigree safety clasp, which the auction listing identifies as 925 sterling silver. The total weight of the piece is approximately 1.4 ounces. The necklace displays a classic, likely late 20th-century aesthetic. Regarding condition, the pearls show good luster with minimal visible surface pitting, though the stringing appears somewhat loose near the clasp area, indicating potential age-related wear to the silk or nylon cord. No knots are visible between the individual pearls in the primary image, which is a common construction for more accessible fashion jewelry. The craftsmanship is consistent with mid-market cultured pearl accessories, prioritizing color contrast and wearability.
