Vintage Pearl Necklace

Vintage Add-A-Pearl Necklace by Juergens & Andersen of Chicago. Charming necklace of 20 cultured pearls lovingly collected between 1956 and 1975 . Pearls are in excellent condition with a warm luminescence. Graduated pearls (3- 4mm) are strung to 14k yellow gold chain with ring clasp. The necklace is designed to add more pearls, but is quite attractive as is; current length is 15" (relaxed choker length), but will be longer if more pearls are added. Perfect for gifting to a daughter or grandchild - Make it even more special & personalized by presenting them with a new pearl to add recognizing their birthdays, special occasions and accomplishments (these were collected to celebrate birth - high school graduation). An heirloom-worthy piece to pass on to the next generation. Will be gift boxed. From the J&A website (https://www.addapearl.com/): The nationally known Add-A-Pearl Necklace was originated in 1915 by Juergens and Andersen Company. This trademarked item quickly blossomed into a popular gift item for baby girls as it was an economical way for a girl to assemble a natural pearl necklace over the course of time, a valuable and cherished keepsake which became a timeless tradition embraced throughout America.
