I made Young Lady in Mother of Pearl using a slice of carved Mother of Pearl depicting a young lady as a cameo.  The necklace has 3 different sizes of Mother of Pearl beads with a sterling silver J closure and a sterling silver bail.  This different cameo is approximately 23" and the pendant adds another 2".
