Virginia Tso is one of the premier craftspeople who hand make sterling silver Navajo Pearls. Each bead is skillfully made from two separate pieces of silver which are pounded into a half round shape,  soldered together, drilled, sanded and polished before stringing on chain! The end result is a magnificent piece of jewelry to be cherished for generations! This necklace measures 18 inches in length and the beads slightly graduated from 10 to 17.5mm in diameter.
