Small black and white magpie shell is centered on a three strand choker of freshwater pearls. The fifteen inch necklace is finished with signature sterling silver "MC" dangling from sterling silver clasp which adjusts to seventeen inches. I love this piece because it is equally at home with a white tunic in a summer resort, as it is in a city in January paired with a white silk blouse and black cashmere cardigan. The beautiful shell transcends resort style - serving instead as a reminder of Mother Nature's amazing natural handiwork.
"This design was originally commissioned as a custom piece for Lucie, the belle of our little summer community in southern Maine. Like its muse, it is one of my favorites. Her husband can often be found on his boat, fishing in Winter Harbor - which lends its name to the piece."
