The Louisa May Alcott Necklace

The Louisa May Alcott Necklace, hanging from a black satin chord, a luminescent mother-of-pearl ornament punctuated with a rich onyx-diamond like center is reminiscent of a classic 19th-century choker, complementary to a "fine woman's high collar." Concord's Louisa May Alcott, author of the beloved "Little Women", was a social activist and an early spokesperson for women's rights.
