Satellite Chain Necklace with Mama and Pearl Charms

A delicate satellite chain carrying two charms, one that reads mama and one pearl.

A satellite chain is the kind with small beads set at intervals along its length, so the chain itself has texture instead of being a plain line. The two charms hang together, the word and the pearl, a pairing that states the thing and softens it in the same breath. Underneath it is stainless steel with gold plating, and it measures 15.5" with a 2" extender.

This is a gift piece more often than a self-purchase, though there is no reason it has to be one. It sits just below the throat, short enough to layer something over and long enough to wear alone against an open neckline. Small, specific, and made to be left on rather than taken off each night.
