Beautifully crafted. Very delicate. In ancient Rome, pearls were more valuable than diamonds, and represented both wealth and power. In the 1st century BC, Julius Caesar passed a law limiting the wearing of pearls only to the ruling classes.
Perfect length & am delighted with the look of this necklace. it is very pretty. Wanted choker look without the choking. My only complaint is the clasp is a little difficult. I would buy again or give as gift.
