Pearls will always be in vogue, whoever wears it and whatever the occasion. However, one can make it somewhat more chic and stylish by giving it a slightly modern twist. The floating pearl necklace is a sexy new style of pearl jewelry that gives the illusion of pearls suspended around your neck. In reality, the pearls are held by gold or clear synthetic cord.
This particular style of pearl jewelry is highly popular. Many online stores sell exquisitely delicate illusion pearl necklaces that appear to float at the neckline. One has an endless variety of designs and styles to choose from. |
Illusion pearl necklaces are a great way to add style and flair to any jewelry collection. Some of the best designs are threaded on virtually-invisible fine acrylic strands and made of 4-5 mm round natural cultured fresh water pearls. They can either be of the same color; or pearls of different colors and sizes may be stranded together to make a gorgeous illusion pearl necklace. One can go in for a single strand, two strands or a multi-strand necklace suiting her costume and the occasion. These types of trendy necklaces are relatively new and give the look of pearls floating in front of you!
Knotting is the ancient way pearl necklaces were made, and those were the original floating pearl necklaces. A knot is made after each pearl in the necklace. The size of the pearl can vary for a floating pearl necklace. The advantage of this technique is, if the thread breaks, only one pearl will fall off the necklace rather than the entire string of pearls.
Another method of making a floating pearl necklace is wrapping the acrylic thread around the pearls with the thread becoming part of the design of the jewelry.
The pearls in a floating necklace can be linked together with thread, which gives freedom to choose different styles, colors and sizes of pearls, by mixing and matching.
Pearl weaving/stringing is done with thread or with wire and the different techniques of weaving will produce an entirely different look to the piece of jewelry created. Thus, floating necklaces can be made in a lot of creative styles, depending on one's imagination.
Floating pearl necklaces are attractive, feminine and very flattering. They are wonderful for weddings, and for dressing up simple elegant outfits. They are excellent as birthday or anniversary gifts. One can be a bit innovative and wrap her illusion pearl necklace around the wrist twice to make a stunning illusion pearl bracelet.
Floating pearl necklaces are trendy and stylish - you can choose from a host of styles, sizes and colors to dazzle the eye. Everything from tiny exquisite Akoya fresh water pearls to chunky pendant-size Tahitian pearls to coffee colored Keishi pearls.
