South Sea Pearl Pendant - White, Button, 12.16mm; diamonds and 18k gold

Posh Pearls would like you to move your mouse over the pictures of our beautiful one-of-a-kind leaf-shaped South Sea white pearl and diamonds necklace pendant, item P 83594.

Our master craftsman has carefully crafted our elegant leaf-shape necklace pendant from solid 18k white gold. The white gold and diamonds both glint wonderfully into the extra thick South Sea pearl nacre when lights hit them to create an extra deep depth-of-color effect on the gorgeous larger size, 12.16mm, white South Sea pearl.

In days gone by, white South Sea pearls were once only worn by royalty. When white pearls were coupled with both gold and diamonds, they became a highly treasured item to the lucky royal lady who received them as a gift.

Color = White. Pure white is the traditionally prized background color for elegant high-quality pearls. The color of white South Sea pearls is the color that indicates a feminine purity of heart and soul.

When a member of a royal family presented his bride with white pearls to wear, he was announcing to all that his bride was very special to him. The bride’s status within the household would increase with this gift, and her safety outside of the household was assured.

Grade = AA. Pearls are graded by quality of shine on the nacre (outer-shell) and its ability in light refraction. Grade AA is an admirable division of top ‘A’ ratings that will have a soft swirling iridescence showing that will dazzle when light strikes the surface.

Size = Common sizes in South Seas pearls are normally seen in the 8mm to 12mm size ranges. This stunning South Sea white pearl necklace pendant has a pearl that is a full 12.16mm in size.

Button Shape = Button shaped pearls grew slightly flattened on one side. These types of pearls are appreciated for high-quality settings. The slightly flattened side acts as a natural security in a setting while it often fits very tightly against the jewelry mounting area.

When pearl luster quality is rated high and nacre thickness is rated excellent; a grade ‘AA’ white South Sea pearl that is set with solid gold and 0.31 total carat weight in diamonds becomes a very good investment choice in quality jewelry.
