Multi-Strand Necklace with Shell Focal Component and Coral Gemstone Bead Chips

Design Idea 6862

As always, there's a vivacious story behind this romantic piece ... A story of a loving husband, amazing South Seas' riches and a woman inspired.

The beauty of the sea comes to life in this design kindled by love everlasting. This cherished keepsake started with a magnificent gift given to Carolina by her husband for their 15th wedding anniversary. Using the pearl shell as her inspiration, Carolina dreamed of uncovering the secrets of the seas by creating this romantic treasure.
