Latitude

$3,250.00

Eighteen inches of vintage pearls in 4–5 mm — pale, with a faint peach undertone — hand-strung in silk, with a 3.59-carat oval lab diamond at center and four smaller stones stepping down the line in matched pairs. A strand built for daily wear: the oval at this scale sits quietly against fabric, announces itself only when the light is right.
