Chandni Pearl Polki Necklace Set

Necklace and earrings share one motif, worked at two scales so they read as a pair without repeating exactly. 697 pearls cover the face, set tight enough that the ground reads as stone rather than metal. At 138.69 grams the metal has to be built hollow in places or the piece would be unwearable.

The stones are set the jadau way: gold softened over heat and worked up around each one, with no claw and no solder showing. The order matters, because once a stone is bedded the metal beside it cannot be reheated. 18KT gold holds the settings rigid where 22KT would move.

18KT Yellow Gold. 138.69g. Pearls: 697 pcs, 114.68 cts. Polki diamonds. Made to order.
