The Strand Necklace

Always opulent, the strand necklace is a strand of gemstones with very little silver. Single strands or multiple strands can range in length from the choker (between 16 and 18 inches) to opera length (from 28 to 32 inches).

The traditional single pearl strand is welcome with tailored suits or ball gowns and is a perennial expression of good taste. But any gem or combination of stones may conform a strand necklace, and as many as six appear in Sasina's gossamer turquoise jewelry and citrine chokers. The Thai designer knots the stones by hand on silken cords for a wonderfully feminine look. Achara transforms garnet and amethyst into long strands that wrap around the neck. Somluck Komolmith designs black onyx necklaces of bold contrasts, alternating carnelian, quartz or turquoise, then adds matching gemstone earrings.
