Elegant Black and Silver Baroque Tahitian Pearl Necklace

This elegant necklace features a stunning combination of black Spinel gemstones and multi colored baroque Tahitian pearls. It is perfect to wear casually as well as dressing up that little LBD. The term "baroque" refers to the shape of the pearl. Round pearls are formed by inserting a round piece of shell into the clam (freshwater) or oyster (saltwater). Baroque pearls do not have a nucleus introduced so they are not always round. They both produce beautiful pearls. I prefer baroque because they show their individuality. It's like people no two are just alike. Yes, Tahitians are more expensive than some freshwater pearls but the length of time they take to mature and the labor to harvest them are factors in their price.
