Chinese Freshwater Pearl Necklace

Oxidized sterling silver, 24K and 18K yellow gold, green and red-brown diamonds 0.17 ctw, Chinese freshwater pearls

Streams of lustrous Chinese freshwater pearls coalesce into a beautiful dance of color and light. Shades of creamy blush nestle with that of alabaster and pewter to form a union of heavenly devise. Skillfully, artist Peter Schmid of Atelier Zobel adheres a stunning vario clasp to marry the precious aquatic stones. With a foundation of oxidized sterling silver, the form is infused with the dusting of high karat gold to compose a cosmic arrangement of contrast. Delicately, green and red-brown diamonds seemingly float in their perforated space. Leaving one in celestial wonder, upon the light, the clasp alone may stun us in astonishment. A piece of pure ingenuity in both design and versatility, Schmid creates his necklace to wear in many ways. To release the male ends of the vario clasp, simply push and twist. Upon release, Twist the pearl strands and then adhere the clasp once again to tighten and shape the necklace. Keep the clasp undone, and separate the nine pearl strands to wear the piece as a longer composition around the neck. For those who are additionally adventurous, connect the clasp so it is situated in the middle of the composition. Wear longways along the front or wear pearls down the back. Anyway one chooses to adorn his work, Schmid ensures a truly soul-stirring experience in opulent delight.
