Vintage Pearl Necklace with Amethyst Clasp in 14ct Gold

1940 - 1960
Description

A beautiful and timeless 1950s pearl necklace, composed of a single strand of finely matched cultured pearls, each individually knotted and displaying a soft creamy ivory tone with delicate pink overtones.

At the centre sits a particularly attractive clasp, set with a rich purple oval cabochon amethyst within a 14ct gold mount. Designed to be worn at the front or elegantly to one side, the clasp transforms the necklace from a classic strand into something altogether more distinctive and refined.

The pearls have a smooth, even surface and a lovely lustre, catching the light beautifully with every movement. Effortlessly elegant and endlessly wearable, this is a classic mid-century pearl necklace with a subtle yet striking twist.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Single-strand pearl necklaces featured decorative gemstone clasps, often made of gold or silver, throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. These functional fasteners were designed to be displayed either at the nape or side of the neck, combining classic pearl elegance with colourful gemstone focal points.

High-quality pearl strands are traditionally hand-strung on durable silk thread with individual knots tied between each bead. This construction method prevents friction between the pearls and ensures that beads remain secure if the strand breaks.

Authentic pearls exhibit slight surface variations, feel cool to the touch, and display subtle iridescence under direct light. Gold clasps typically feature hallmarks denoting metal purity, such as 14K, 585, or regional assay stamps near the mechanism.

A classic pearl strand can elevate modern daywear when paired with a crisp white shirt or structured blazer. Positioning a gemstone clasp towards the front or side provides a distinctive focal element for formal evening attire.

Pearls should be gently wiped with a soft, damp cloth after wearing to remove natural skin oils and stored flat away from harder gemstones to prevent scratching. Professional restringing is recommended periodically for frequently worn strands to maintain silk thread integrity.
