9.0–14.5 mm white South Sea and Tahitian ombré pearl necklace
77 round pearls · 38.5 momme · approx. 35 inches · 18K white gold diamond clasp (112 diamonds, 0.80 ctw)
A natural ombré strand of seventy-seven round pearls measuring 9.0–14.5 mm, totaling 38.5 momme, transitioning from luminous white South Sea pearls into deep, top-color peacock Tahitian pearls with green and purple overtones. The peacock pearls here are the finest grade Tahiti produces, which is what sets this strand apart.
An ombré built to this standard is exceptional. It requires sorting through an enormous quantity of pearls to find peacock Tahitians of this color and white South Sea pearls fine enough to match them, then grading the whole strand into a smooth, continuous progression of color and size across 35 inches. Very few houses held inventory deep enough to build a piece like this, and Assael was one of them.
Finished with an 18K white gold clasp set with 112 natural diamonds totaling 0.80 carats.
A museum-caliber strand, matched over years and impossible to recreate. One of a kind.
