Pearls of varying size are wire-wrapped individually and linked into the chain in short clusters, graduating from small round pearls near the top to larger pearls as the strand descends toward the center. The two sides meet at a small ring, from which a short drop hangs carrying a round pearl above a larger teardrop-shaped pearl. Fine cable chain fills the space between the pearl stations, keeping the upper portion light against the neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wire-wrapped station construction is the detail worth noting here, since each pearl is drilled and individually looped rather than strung on a single thread. That means the piece can't unravel from one break the way a knotted strand can, and it gives the pearls space to move and catch light independently. The deliberate size variation and the slightly irregular pearl shapes keep the strand from reading as uniform or manufactured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 18 inch length sits at the collarbone with the drop extending below, and the neutral white works against most colors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails\u003cbr\u003eMetal: Sterling Silver\u003cbr\u003eMain Stone: Pearl\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Station Necklace with Y Drop\u003cbr\u003eLength: 18 Inch\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Excellent estate condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFun Facts\u003cbr\u003eA pearl's luster comes from light passing through hundreds of translucent nacre layers and reflecting back from each one, which is why the glow appears to come from inside the pearl rather than off its surface.\u003cbr\u003ePearls are one of the few gems requiring no cutting or polishing to reach their finished state, and they are also among the softest, ranking around 2.5 on the Mohs scale, which is why they are traditionally put on last after perfume and hairspray.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unbranded","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52908955337069,"sku":"ET-1707599773","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/8272\/0109\/files\/Vintage_Sterling_Silver_Pearl_Station_Y_Drop_Necklace_Teardrop_18_Inch.png?v=1786165246","url":"https:\/\/silverqueenstudio.com\/products\/vintage-sterling-silver-pearl-station-y-drop-necklace-teardrop-18-inch","provider":"Silver Queen Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
