Assael Collection: 11.2–15.3 mm White South Sea Keshi Pearl Necklace, 18.5 inches

11.2–15.3 mm white South Sea keshi pearl and diamond necklace
29 white South Sea keshi pearls · 19.0 momme · approx. 18.5 inches · 18K white gold diamond clasp (106 diamonds, 2.39 ctw)

Twenty-nine white South Sea keshi pearls measuring 11.2–15.3 mm, totaling 19.0 momme. Keshi pearls form without a bead nucleus, giving them solid nacre and a luminous white bodycolor with soft silvery overtones. Large white South Sea keshi like these, reaching over 15 mm, are extraordinarily rare, finding enough at this size to build a matched strand is a genuine achievement.

Each pearl was selected and arranged for a balanced rhythm of size and organic shape. Finished at approximately 18.5 inches with an 18K white gold diamond ball clasp set with 106 natural diamonds totaling 2.39 carats.

A one-of-a-kind strand from the Assael Collection, held in our Los Angeles vault. Once it sells, it will not be available again.
