Fresh Water order Pearl & Found Object Necklace

A found object treasure from the sea becomes a contemporary, statement-piece necklace. Friends are sure to ask: What is it? It's a well-worn shoe heel, encrusted with one rare, black freshwater pearl and small sea shells, hanging from a strand of gorgeous, white freshwater pearls measuring 6mm round. The one-of-a-kind necklace made by Connecticut jeweler and sculptor Kristin Merrill is 18" in length and has a sterling silver lobster clasp.
