Silver popcorn Choker. 18”. It’s very magnetic so it is not Sterling but I think it is Sterling-plated - when I polished it there was a lot of black on the cloth which is a sign of Sterling silver tarnish. It can be worn several ways: alone with the decorative clasp in front or in the back; in the front with an Enhancer attached to the clasp; with the clasp in back and an Enhancer in the front. Currently, it is not for sale because I’m using it as a demo. Popcorn refers to the pattern of the chain. You can find similar chokers on-line, most have toggle clasps. Google, Popcorn choker and Popcorn choker toggle clasp. BP. Crosses. Jay King.

Amy Kahn Russell.

Another one of Mom's necklaces. The designer is Amy Kahn Russell. I Googled, Amy Kahn Russell lavender freshwater pearl necklace. Nothing like it. I found a few freshwater pearl necklaces designed by her that were similar selling from $198 to $280. I have a confession to make. I came across the necklace in a tote of Mom's jewelry that I was going to take apart. It's a little "over the top" for my taste (it's also a very heavy piece). I think the small pearls and the faceted stones (I think they are quartz) would make beautiful necklaces (individually). I don't know what to think of the "spikes". Here's what her website has to say about her: Incorporating natural minerals, pearls, and fossils with semi-precious stones, Amy's designs become wearable pieces of art. Amy Kahn Russell jewelry is internationally sold in museum shops, art galleries, prestigious boutiques, catalogs, and specialty stores. My Price $100. Update. Aug 8, 2023. I found...
