About the Item

Peter Pan Double Pearly Chain

2026

This necklace is a modern take on the classic pearl necklace. Made with one strand of silver freshwater pearls and one strand of white freshwater pearls that loop together creating a hand knotted freshwater pearl necklace can be worn so many ways! The strands can be positioned with either side being longer than the other or both the same length offering a variety of styles all in one necklace. This necklace was hand crafted using the traditional pearl knotting techniques connected to a custom sterling silver clasp fabricated by independent jewelry designer Sarah Holden in her Chicago contemporary artist studio. This handmade sterling silver clasp perfectly holds your new pearls together so they catch the eyes of everyone that walks by.

6mm silver and white freshwater pearls, custom hand fabricated sterling silver clasp measures 0.25 x 1", necklace measures 20" long

About the Artist

"Hi! I'm Sarah. I am a contemporary studio jeweler and sculptor.

I received my Master of Fine Arts with a focus in Jewelry and Metalsmithing from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, and my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Crafts Materials Studies and Sculpture from Virginia Commonwealth University.

My limited production jewelry and sculpture can be found in galleries across America. I live in Chicago where I work as a studio artist, metals instructor and mom.

My work investigates how female identity is constructed and performed through the body.

The female body is site and content for my work and yields series in sculpture, drawing and limited-production jewelry. I source and celebrate imagery and histories of women that rebel against cultural expectation of the submissive female. Working inside this contested space I use traditional and non-traditional craft techniques to challenge these expectations by creating a role reversal through material."
