Laevie Odessa Long Baroque Pearl Statement Necklace

Most pearl necklaces end where the collarbone does. The Odessa keeps going — a sweeping 24-inch line of luminous freshwater pearls that resolves into a single oversized baroque pendant, 15 to 18 millimeters of nacre the water shaped without consulting anyone.

The long line draws the eye vertically, lengthening everything it is worn over: a structured blazer in daylight, a fine-gauge turtleneck after dark. Worn full-length, the pendant lands at the sternum and swings with the body's larger movements; doubled at the throat, it converts into a layered short strand with the baroque pearl as its anchor. One necklace, two silhouettes — the kind of arithmetic a capsule wardrobe respects.

Genuine freshwater pearls with one XL naturally formed baroque pendant, 15–18mm, deep iridescent overtone; each pendant is a singular form. Setting, hardware, and lobster clasp in hypoallergenic, nickel-free 925 sterling silver; 24-inch length with 2-inch adjustable extender. Hand-graded in-house; freshwater-farmed in clean-water environments — no mining, no extraction.

Care & Keeping

Pearls follow one rule above all: last on, first off. Finish your perfume, hairspray, and lotion before your jewelry touches skin, and remove it before anything else at day's end. After each wear, pass a soft, lint-free cloth over the pearls to lift skin oils. Keep nacre clear of water, chlorine, and household chemicals, and store each piece separately in its Laevié pouch. Sterling silver revives with a gentle pass of a polishing cloth — kept away from the pearl itself. Never use ultrasonic cleaners or steam; a pearl's structure is organic, and irreplaceable.
