The sea is a huge source of inspiration for many jewellers and we are no exception. How many blue hues does an ocean hold? How many strange, wonderful and beautiful creatures live there? This is the inspiration for our long pearl ropes. These amazing two metre long necklaces are just crammed with freshwater pearls, mother of pearl chips and an eclectic mix of glass beads. At two metres in length, wear it single (to drape to your knees!), as a double strand or even a triple strand. Or wear it round and round your wrist to make a huge bracelet. The picture to your left shows our “Romance” pink jewellery, pearl rope.

All of the Mother of Pearl Chip beads featured on these beautiful necklaces have been dyed, this is not their natural colour. The wonderful white freshwater pearls, however are entirely natural colours.

The pink jewellery pearl rope we call Romance, it has the beautiful soft pink hues that are tipped to be the colours for Spring 2010. The painterly watercolour tones are just perfect for softening modern shapes. Be Pretty in Pink this Spring.

Team our Romance Pink Pearl Necklace with simple stud earrings in the same tones – let the necklace be your statement piece or go wild with chained drops holding the same colour base. It’s all about feeling good.

On the same theme, the second colour in this series of contemporary pearl jewellery, is “Contemplation”, a multi-hued mix of turquoise and blue. Clever ways with colour mean that this large necklace can be worn with all sorts of outfits – costume fashion jewellery comes of age.

To dress up a pair of jeans, wear a simple white t-shirt and let the jewellery do the talking. Add a pair of OTT earrings and you have an outfit the paparazzi will want to collect on camera.

Pearls of course are also renewable – did you know that a freshwater pearl oyster can be used up to seven times before exhausting itself and then the shell is used to create other works of art like the dyed shell beads used in this necklace, carved cameos (like those featured on this site and on www.rayclif.com ) and sometimes blister pearls which are like pearls growing right into the shell itself.

Readers of FashionCostumeJewellery.com will receive a free pair of freshwater pearl earrings with every pearl rope purchased by quoting FCJrope at checkout in your comments. Even if you forget – rayclif.com won’t!
