Floating Reclaimed Potato Pearl Chain Shortie

We are excited to add local Carrickfergus maker, Becca Calmont to our gifts collections this festive season! These 16 inch pearl necklaces are a simple yet beautiful way to wear classic pearls. The pearl is threaded directly onto the chain adding a modern twist to an everyday classic. 

The Maker: Using new and reclaimed materials, Becca creates beautiful and timeless pieces of jewellery with minimal impact on the environment. 

What do we mean when we say something is reclaimed?
In a past life Becca was lucky enough to work for some luxury British brands,
designing and developing their beautiful semi-precious costume jewellery pieces. As
you can imagine the samples sometimes didn't survive being transported to and from
shoots and fashion shows. When these pieces arrived back in bits Becca could
never bring herself to just throw away any beautiful components. So she collected
each pearl, crystal and bead waiting for the day they could be given new life. They
technically aren't new components but have never been worn as jewellery for longer
than a catwalk show and are just as beautiful as when they were first used.

Necklace Details: Potato pearls are known for their unique striations and slightly oblong shape. Each pearl is unique and therefore there will be slight variances in colour and shape from pearl to pearl.

These chains are made using recycled silver, our gold vermeil is sterling silver with an extra thick layer of 18 carat gold on top.

Materials - Cultured pearl + recycled silver or 18 carat gold vermeil chain
Length - 16 inches

Each piece comes in a branded gift box that is made from recycled material and is
recyclable - although we do recommend you keep your jewellery stored safely in its box
when not wearing it.
