A 16" + 2" extension 14/20 gold filled necklace featuring a 9mm floating cultured freshwater pearl. Finished with a lobster clasp.

A floating pearl necklace is one in which the pearl appears to rest directly on the chain without a visible bail, setting, or attachment point: the pearl is drilled and threaded onto the chain itself, so that the chain passes through the interior of the pearl rather than attaching to a fitting on its surface. The result is a necklace in which the pearl appears to float at a fixed point on the chain with no visible means of support — an effect that is distinct from a pendant necklace, where the bail and loop that connect the pearl to the chain are visible components of the design, and from a stranded pearl necklace, where the pearl is one of many strung in sequence. The floating arrangement places the single pearl as the sole visual element on the chain, with the gold filled chain visible above and below the pearl but no additional metal at the setting point. At 9mm, this cultured freshwater pearl is at the upper end of the standard freshwater pearl size range: the diameter is large enough for the pearl to be clearly visible as a substantial round form, and large enough that the nacre lustre — the light-scattering optical effect produced by the aragonite layers deposited by the mollusc — is visible across the full curved surface of the pearl. 14/20 gold filled chain is fabricated by mechanically bonding a layer of 14 karat gold to a base metal core under heat and pressure: the gold layer constitutes 1/20th of the total weight of the metal. This is significantly more gold than the electroplated deposit of gold-plated chain, which is measured in microns and constitutes a negligible fraction of the total metal weight. The result is a gold surface that is more durable and longer-lasting under normal wear conditions than gold plating, with a warm yellow-gold tone that complements the organic lustre of the cultured freshwater pearl. The 16" + 2" extension allows the floating pearl to be positioned at the collarbone or slightly below.

A refined gift for pearl lovers or anyone looking for a floating cultured freshwater pearl necklace in 14/20 gold filled — a single 9mm pearl that appears to float on a warm gold chain, with the durability of gold filled construction and a 2" extension for adjustable length.

✨ How to Wear

Wear alone as a refined floating pearl necklace at the collarbone, or layer with fine chains. The 9mm pearl sits as a single floating element on the 14/20 gold filled chain with no visible attachment point. The warm gold tone of the gold filled chain pairs beautifully with gold and warm-toned jewelry.
