Have we got a secret for you!  This gorgeous pearl necklace is made from real shell pearls which have been crushed and then lasered to emulate Tahitian pearls. The pearls are hand knotted and finished off with a beautiful sterling silver clasp accented with cubic zirconia.  This piece is high quality and looks exactly like a $10,000 Tahitian string of pearls.  Not only is it elegant but it's also smart shopping.
