Three Row Pearl Drop Choker Platinum/Pearl/Multi

The Vivienne Westwood Three Row Pearl Drop Choker Platinum/Pearl/Multi reworks the house’s archival pearl design as a statement three-strand choker. These pearl codes first appeared at the 1987 Harris Tweed show and came into focus again in the 1990 Portrait collection. At its centre, the Orb motif holds onto Vivienne Westwood’s signature balance of punk and royal references. Its platinum-tone plated brass body is finished with 113 handmade glass-based pearls. A 2.3cm three-dimensional Orb, set with crystals, suspends a drop pearl that lends the necklace a baroque asymmetry. The 38cm length sits close to the neck with a defined presence. At the back, the toggle fastening brings together an Orb ring and cross form, making the closure part of the design itself. It has a reassuring weight without feeling tiring on the neck, though the toggle may take some getting used to at first. It carries the same presence for special occasions as it does over a simple shirt. Vivienne Westwood’s archival pearl series is not consistently available in Turkey. sutore offers this piece following an authenticity check, as a necklace made to remain in a wardrobe for years.
