I really like the way this photo turned out. It's not the best technically, but it really shows the beauty of this old glass baroque pearl necklace. None of the pearlescence has cracked off. Each bead is unique. Fake pearls in the past were so valued because they used to be so hard to make. We've all come across a beautiful old set that has cracked and peeled. I am particularly fond of the big baroque shape of these beads and thrilled that they have held up so well. I made the earrings out of another strand that only had a few good beads left. I think they are a pretty good compliment to the necklace without being to matchy-matchy. This set would be good for a night at the Opera paired with a chiffon lavender dress, diamond ring, a champagne mink stole and a fresh pedicure.
