This 1960s mid-century double strand cultured pearl necklace is formed of creamy ivory pearls strung on hand-knotted silk. The high-quality pearls display a deep lustre and measure approximately 8 mm to 7 mm. The piece secures with a rectangular 18 ct gold push box clasp featuring a safety chain, set with brilliant-cut diamonds, red rubies, and midnight blue sapphires, alongside maker's initials and an 18 ct gold hallmark. The inner strand measures 43 cm, the outer strand measures 45 cm, and the clasp measures 21 mm by 12 mm. This versatile jewellery piece sits comfortably at the neckline to elevate formal evening wear, tailoring, or smart day dresses. It pairs readily with a range of outfits for dinners, celebrations, and professional events, bringing a touch of mid-century elegance to contemporary wardrobes. The durable construction and secure gemstone clasp ensure safe daily wear when stored appropriately in a dedicated jewellery box.

FAQs

A double strand pearl necklace consists of two parallel rows of nested pearls secured by a shared clasp, a style widely popularised in mid-20th-century formal fashion.

These necklaces feature cultured or natural pearls hand-strung on silk thread, paired with clasps forged from 18ct gold or platinum and set with precious gemstones such as rubies, sapphires, and diamonds.

Authentic mid-century pieces typically exhibit hand-knotted silk between each individual pearl, hallmarked precious metal clasps, consistent surface lustre, and characteristic period gemstone setting techniques.

A double strand pearl necklace can be worn alongside modern evening attire or layered over monochrome tailored knitwear to create visual contrast.

Wipe the pearls with a soft dry cloth after wear and store the necklace flat in a velvet pouch away from moisture, cosmetics, and direct heat to prevent silk thread degradation and retain surface lustre.
