Vintage Sterling Silver Native American Graduated Pearl Necklace

This is a rare piece as is entirely crafted by hand; it is more expensive that bench made jewelry as each silver bead is. The necklace comprises a total of 63 beads measuring 23 1/2 inches (end to end). Here are 31 beads on each side graduated in size with a large bead in the middle measuring. On each side after the large bead there are three graduated smaller beads. Approximately 5/8"; then three more 1/2"; then three more approximately a little less that 1/2":then four more approximately 3/4"; then five more. Approximately a little less that 3/4. And finally 13 beads a little smaller than last. This makes for a very unique necklace.

It is quite beautiful with a fabulous natural patina. A lovely necklace that will look great with most anything you wear.
