1950s Pearl Necklace with 18ct Gold Diamond and Sapphire Clasp Recently Restrung

1940 - 1960
Description

Vintage Graduated Cultured Pearl Necklace with 18ct Gold Diamond and Sapphire Clasp c.1950s

A beautiful vintage cultured pearl necklace dating to the 1950s, composed of graduated creamy ivory pearls displaying a lovely soft lustre and recently professionally restrung in June 2026.

The necklace is centred by an elegant 18ct gold clasp of refined mid-century design. Set with two calibre-cut sapphires framed by two sparkling diamonds, the clasp provides a wonderful focal point and elevates the necklace beyond a traditional pearl strand. A delicate safety chain offers additional security when worn.

The graduated pearls have been individually hand-knotted in the traditional manner, allowing them to drape beautifully around the neck whilst protecting the pearls from wear. Equally suited to bridal wear, formal occasions or everyday elegance, this timeless necklace remains one of the most versatile and enduring pieces of jewellery.

Presented in the fitted presentation box illustrated and offered in excellent condition.

The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

During the 1950s, single and multi-strand cultured pearl necklaces became central accessories in womens fashion, frequently paired with ornate clasps rendered in high-karat gold and set with precious gemstones.

Authentic pearl strands are individually hand-knotted on silk thread between each bead, which prevents friction damage and prevents all pearls from scattering if the thread breaks.

Natural and cultured pearls exhibit minute surface variations and feel cool and slightly gritty when gently drawn against the edge of a front tooth, whereas glass or plastic beads feel uniform and completely smooth.

A classic pearl strand can be worn with structured modern tailoring, paired with modern minimalist apparel, or layered alongside modern gold chains to create a multi-textured look.

Pearls require wipe-downs with a soft cloth after use, isolation from perfumes and cosmetics, and flat storage inside a lined pouch to avoid stretching the silk thread.
