Black pearl necklaces are available in three major pearl types: black Tahitian pearls, dyed black Akoya pearls and dyed black Freshwater pearls; we offer pearl chokers, single strand necklaces, pearl ropes and pearl on leather styles. Each real black pearl necklace for women we create is hand-selected for its bold colors and high luster, knotted by hand on black silk and finished with a solid 14kt gold clasp of your choice.
Black pearl chokers are necklaces that measure 14 to 16 inches in length, and rest around the base of the neck. Black pearl choker necklaces featuring Akoya pearls are a perfect choice for this look; a small black pearl necklace in 5.0mm through 6.0mm sizes looks refined and starts at $330. For a single black pearl necklace, choose a Tahitian pearl on leather choker: a black choker necklace with pearl in your choice of round or baroque shape, from $330, in your preferred length of 16, 18 or 20 inches to get the choker look. A Tahitian pearl suspended from a leather or rubber cord is also a popular black pearl necklace for men, from $530. Long black pearl necklaces such as opera length Tahitian or Akoya strands are all double-knotted on durable black silk, and finished with solid 14kt gold clasps. Our Pearl Necklace Length Guide compares choker, princess, matinee and long pearl necklace lengths so you can see which black pearl necklace is best for you.
