Triple-Strand Freshwater Rice Pearl Necklace with Yellow Metal Lobster Claw Clasp - A triple-strand necklace featuring creamy-white freshwater pearls. The pearls are baroque in form, specifically a rice shape with characteristic horizontal surface ridges and natural surface irregularities. They exhibit a bright luster and visible orient. The three strands are gathered at either end by yellow metal bead-shaped end caps. The piece is secured by a large yellow metal lobster claw clasp. A small yellow metal oval tag is attached to the jump ring near the clasp; the impressed characters on this tag are not legible. The pearls are strung on white thread. Length: Approximately 17 to 18 inches Pearl Widths: 4.14 mm and 5.21 mm. The necklace is in good condition. The pearls retain their natural surface texture and high luster, with no visible chips or losses (photo 2). The threading appears taut and secure. The lobster claw clasp is functional and operates smoothly (photo 4). The yellow metal components show minor surface abrasions and light wear consistent with use (photo 6).
