This plum pearl choker is so dainty and pretty. A genuine freshwater pearl in a lovely burgundy shade is centered on lightweight, rose gold-filled chain. The pearl measures about 7mm in diameter and sits right at the hollow of your throat. Tiny rhodolite garnets connect the lobster clasp. This necklace is about 16" (40.6cm) in length, so it is a little longer than the usual choker length. If necessary, I would be happy to adjust the length for you. Matching threader earrings are also available. Your jewellery will be packaged in a small gift bag. A gift box, or gift wrapping is available upon request. What is Gold-Filled? Gold-filled is an economical alternative to solid gold. By law, it has 1/20th by weight layer of 14 karat gold permanently bonded over a core of base metal. It is tarnish-resistant, safe for sensitive skin and unlike gold plate, it will not wear off. It is a great way to enjoy affordable gold jewellery.
