A New Take on Classic Pearls

by Calista Uriarte.

I love to update classics. Right now combining material is a fun way to do just that.

This necklace combines classic white pearls on silk thread with sterling chain and a lovely, elegant blacklip shell that has been delicately laser etched with another trend – the peacock feather.

The etching design is one that, through a relationship with one of my bead vendors – Beads and Pieces – I’d been commissioned to create.

Gorgeous piece! Love the asymmetry, and the combination of pearls and etched shell.

Thanks for sharing!
