Small, luminous freshwater cultured pearls float along a delicate 17-inch-long 14k yellow gold chain in this enchanting curb chain necklace. Freshwater cultured pearls are remarkably similar in appearance to the more expensive Akoya cultured pearls, but because they are easier to cultivate and tend to be smaller and more irregular in shape, they are more affordable. These freshwater pearls have been carefully strung, spaced about an inch apart along the chain, and in this setting they appear extremely uniform. In fact, the spacing shows off the individual pearls beautifully--they have a lovely white color and medium luster. This is an elegant necklace, simple and classic, but graceful, and it is an impressive-looking piece of jewelry for the cost.
