About the Item
This charming antique Victorian necklace features natural pearl shell beads, delicately dyed in soft pastel shades of pink, blue, peach, and cream. These petite spiral shells catch the light beautifully, creating an iridescent glow that complements the romantic, feminine aesthetic of the period.
Originally, necklaces such as this would often have been purchased as seaside souvenirs during the height of Victorian holiday travel. Many surviving examples have not withstood the passage of time due to the fragile nature of the shells, making this piece particularly special in its excellent condition after more than a century.
Whether worn alone or layered, the necklace brings a touch of whimsical Victorian seaside nostalgia to any outfit.
