Pearl Tudor Renaissance Necklace Jewelry

Shown above is a full view of the pearl necklace. It shows the necklace in a rather large size of about 40 inches, and in this representation could be worn as a renaissance style chain. If worn as a necklace there would be fewer links depending upon the client's wishes. The Tudor style necklace is made of pewter as an under metal to keep it light in weight. Next the pewter is gilded very heavily in 22K gold.

The jewels used in this instance are genuine fresh water pearls. Other stones can easily be used depending on your personal preference.

Each link is about one and a quarter inches high. There are two jump rings used to secure each link to the other. This is done to make certain your jewelry does not fall apart.

This piece of renaissance jewelry lays beautifully around the neck and would be very suitable as a choker style or just a bit longer. A matching bracelet is also available. When wearing as a collar there are no claps needed. However when wearing as a necklace or choker there are several options available such as a regular clasp or a more period approach which would be velvet ribbon that ties in the back.
