This gorgeous Set is designed with a double strand of 6mm Swarovski White Crystal  Pearls. The necklace is interspersed with 16 x 6.5 Swarovski Crystal Gold Plated Bridge Spacers and 6mm Swarovski Crystal Rhinestone Gold plated Rondelles. An 18mm Swarovski Golden Shadow Heart Pendant glows from the center of this pearl and golden necklace. I finished the necklace with lovely shining Gold Filled Swirl Bead Cones, an 11.4 Gold Filled Oval Lobster clasp and a 3mm gold filled curb chain extension with a 4mm gold filled bead dangling at the end. The extension chain allows the necklace size to range from 18" to 21". The matching 1 7/8" dangle earrings contain the same white pearls, the Swarovski golden rondelles and 3 mm Gold Filled beads. The ear wires are my handcrafted ear wires crafted from gold filled wire.  This set can be used for the bride or if you like the look of gold and white pearls for your formal wear or perhaps to accent a formal business suit.

GOLD FILLED is not like gold plated as there is approx 100 times more gold in gold fill, than there is on plated. Gold filled looks and usually wears as well as karat gold. Gold fill is very hard wearing and should last under normal wear conditions for a lifetime. The technique is a sheet of gold is mechanically applied to the surface of the metal. United States requirements state that gold-filled jewelry must contain no less than 1/20 its weight in gold. Wash with gentle soap and water and dry. No harsh chemicals or rouge cloths are needed to keep gold fill components looking like new.

SWAROVSKI CRYSTAL PEARLS are the loveliest of the lab-created pearls on the market made of a unique crystal core covered with an innovative pearl coating similar to a natural pearl luster. These pearls possess a very lustrous flawless, silky, smooth, rounded surface. Every bead is consistent in shape and color. They are resistant to discoloration by sunlight or UV rays, perfumes, perspiration and are remarkably resistant to scratches. The SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS crystal round pearls are the perfect imitation to natural pearls.
