pearl strands

Elegant neck adornment

Pearl strands are necklaces made of pearls strung together, typically on silk thread with knots between each pearl.

The term emphasizes the continuous line of pearls rather than a single piece: She inherited three pearl strands from her grandmother.

Strand length varies from chokers to opera-length ropes, and multiple strands may be worn together for a layered effect.
