This freshwater pearl ribbon necklace and bracelet set from Bob Akrish pairs gold with purple for a ready-to-wear piece that doubles as serious design inspiration.

The gold and purple combination reads rich and layered — warm metallic tones grounded by the natural luster of freshwater pearl.

What to make with them

Wear it as-is or disassemble it to study the stringing construction and repurpose the pearls into your own necklace or bracelet designs; the gold-and-purple palette works especially well for bridal accessories, vintage-inspired layering pieces, or statement earring drops.

Natural materials vary in color, pattern, and size. The beads you receive may differ slightly from the product photos — this is a characteristic of natural materials, not a defect.
