+ FREE BONUS genuine pearl earrings! (see photos + read below for details)

+ FREE BONUS genuine pearl necklace! (see photos + read below for details)


RARE one-of-a-kind artisan jeweler necklace from Tahiti! I purchased this, handmade, by an artisan jeweler in her beautiful boutique, on our honeymoon in 2005. Worn only once! Two big authentic South Sea black pearls! Huge bold genuine mother-of-pearl iridescent shells give a rainbow, metallic bronze sheen. This is a big, long necklace for drama and boldness. 

See my other auctions for other wild black pearls from Tahiti and Bora Bora, also purchased on my honeymoon.

Measure approx:  Pearls are a luscious LARGE  12.7mm  and  12.3mm

(0.5" & 0.484375")

From end to end, necklace measures approx 20.5"  


This is in great condition for its age. Worn once. Slight signs of wear, and some tarnish on silver clasp. Note that this makes use of natural elements, and as such, they have natural imperfections. The pearls are baroque, not perfect, and show markings and shaping consistent with baroque pearls. There is no stamping on the clasp, but I was told it was silver when purchased, and tarnish is consistent with silver. Note that this was bought in French Polynesia where they do not have the same rules about marking jewelry as we do in the States.

This is the perfect summer / beach / island vacation statement necklace!!!

The photos are part of the description, so make sure to study all photos in zoom, and ask all questions before bidding / buying. My take on the condition of an item is my opinion based on my 100% feedback and 16+ years of selling experience on ebay. I have taken photos for your review to make your own item condition assessment. If you need additional photos, just email and ask.


2 BONUS ITEMS (shown in photos) - I am including genuine freshwater pearl earrings + necklace FREE with purchase. 

These are artisan handmade pieces! They will show Mother Nature's variations in the pearls. These are classic white/ivory pearls, needed for any classic wardrobe! Earrings will show variations in the hand-crafted gold brass wire coils. The necklace is made of leather cord with large freshwater pearls dangling down. I never wore either piece.

The bonus items were not purchased in Tahiti like the main necklace, but they go well together or separately. The earrings are great staple items as they are classic and will go with everything.





SHIPPING NOTE: This will be sent EXPEDITED via USPS Priority Mail with tracking and appropriate insurance. Upon receipt, do not cut package open as you may damage contents.











Questions?--Remember, You are responsible to READ LISTING IN FULL before placing any bid. Please read listing in full before asking a question. Often it is answered in the item listing. Since you must read the listing to place your bid, you will save time to read it before asking any questions since the info is likely already posted. If you still have a question after reading the auction in full, use the "ask seller a question" feature and I will be happy to respond. It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to find out all you need to know if you have questions about anything I haven't covered BEFORE the end of the auction.

Feedback--It has become a custom on ebay, that the buyer initiate feedback and then for the seller to respond. This is helpful for two reasons, one, it allows the seller to know the item was received and they buyer is satisfied, and two, it allows the buyer to contact the seller to discuss anything prior to the termination of the sale as indicated with feedback being left. Therefore my policy on feedback is that the buyer leaves feedback for me and I return the feedback as soon as I can upon receipt of it. (When I am a buyer I take my turn to give my sellers their feedback first.) I always try my best to reciprocate the feedback that is left for me.

For Those with Allergies-- If you have pet allergies, please note that though my items are kept in a storage room sealed in plastic, this is still NOT shipped from a pet-free home. If you have allergies, these items may not be free of allergens. Additionally, please note that for a brief time, prior to being stored, my items are photographed in places in our home where pets live. Pet hairs can and do land on items. So make sure you are aware of this, and okay with it prior to placing any bid. I go out of my way to try to mention everything about my sales to assure the best buying experience I can give. This IS a smoke free home.

Clothing, Linens, etc.-- If items are brand new, they will obviously not have been laundered prior to purchase (unless otherwise noted). Worn items will have been laundered prior to listing, either washed or dry cleaned. Note that with new and pre-owned items, they will all be stored in lidded plastic storage bins in our storage room. Since it sometimes takes a while for items to sell, your item may have sat in the storage container for weeks, and as such, will probably need a fresh laundering. I leave this to the buyer to handle upon receipt because most buyers will wash an item when they get it anyway. 

Shipping --(If applicable) is a flat fee, I ship to confirmed address only. Shipping rate for freight includes a packing & handling fee. Please do not expect combined shipping prices for any two or more auctions, UNLESS you have emailed me your address + auction names, and I have given you a price first. my shipping rate is the lowest I can offer, however, if I end up shipping for less I will be happy to refund you the difference after all of my costs. If you would like to email your zip to see if I can find a cheaper option I am happy to check. Shipping price applied to the lower 48 states, and there will be an added fee for other US territories.

Shipping Insurance -- I will not be held responsible for packages once they've been received by shipper. Please contact me within 10 days of shipment if you suspect it is lost so I can file an insurance claim for the missing package. I insure ALL auctions shipments. If you have any issue with delivery or any damage please contact me immediately. In purchasing this item you agree that you will cooperate to provide any insurance claim evidence necessary, and that you agree to wait the required claim period for reimbursement (claim period meaning, as long as it takes the shipper to investigate and process the refund, then get the payment to me so I can pass it on to you). If your shipment is damaged it is up to you to contact me immediately (with all necessary evidence, photos, signed statements, etc. re: the nature and extent of damage) so I can assist you in filing a claim. Any insurance claim money in refunds or partial refunds will be paid as soon as I receive reimbursement from the shipper and not before. I normally ship within 2 weeks of receipt of payment on furniture/oversize items, and once a week on all other items (this is due to what is for now a very hectic work schedule), though I always try my best to ship more often when possible. PLEASE ask any questions if you have any!!!!!!

Bonus items -- When included, bonus items are added free items, to accompany the item you are purchasing, but are not the item being purchased. Upon receipt, note that you should check over main item to assure is all ok BEFORE opening any bonus items, because all items, including bonuses, need to be kept in original new, unused condition in the event of any issue.

My take on the condition of an item is my opinion based on my buyer feedback and over a decade of selling experience on ebay. I have taken photos for your review to make your own item condition assessment. The photos are part of the description, so make sure to study all photos in zoom, and ask all questions before bidding / buying. If you need additional photos, just email and ask.
