Arthur Johnson Auctions Double-Strand Lotus Faux-Pearl Necklace on 28 February 2026

Arthur Johnson & Sons offered a boxed double-strand Lotus faux-pearl necklace in its Saturday Auctions held 28 February 2026; the lot page displays images and brief condition notes and explicitly identifies the strand as faux-pearl rather than natural or cultured. The auction listing for the 28 Feb 2026 sale provides the visual record bidders relied upon, but the supplied Arthur Johnson text does not include a lot number, estimate, measurements, assay stamps, or sale result.

Separately, Elmwoods presents Lot 211 titled AN ASSORTED LOT OF FAUX PEARL NECKLACES with an estimate of £100–£150 and a total weight of 115.8 g. Elmwoods breaks the lot into four distinct necklaces: a 36.0 cm pearl necklace in silver with a clasp stamped 925 and beaded decoration; a 42.0 cm paste and pearl necklace in silver described as a graduated row of pearls with a clasp set with a rectangular step cut green paste and round cut paste gemstones, stamped LOTUS and stamped 935; a 49.0 cm graduated pearl necklace stamped 925; and a 63.0 cm pearl and paste necklace whose clasp holds a pearl in a cluster of round cut white paste and which carries no assay marks.

The two entries share the Lotus name but differ on concrete points. Arthur Johnson’s item is catalogued as boxed and double-strand, while the Elmwoods LOTUS-stamped piece is described as a single graduated row measuring 42.0 cm and bearing a 935 stamp. Elmwoods assigns the assorted group to Lot 211 and supplies an estimate and clasp and length details; Arthur Johnson’s lot page supplies images and condition text for a single boxed double-strand Lotus faux-pearl necklace but omits assay marks, weight, or estimate in the captured text. Elmwoods’ lot page also includes bidding interface text such as Telephone Bid, Cover Bid and commission messaging, and lists contact details at 101 Talbot Road, London, W11 2AT with opening hours MONDAY-FRIDAY 10AM-6PM and SATURDAY 10AM-4PM; the Elmwoods page footer bears the branding Powered by Auction Marketer.

Given the recorded differences in strand count, packaging and the presence or absence of assay marks, the Arthur Johnson boxed double-strand Lotus faux-pearl necklace and the Elmwoods 42.0 cm paste and pearl piece stamped LOTUS and 935 cannot be stated as the same object without further confirmation. Arthur Johnson’s lot page confirms the sale date of 28 February 2026 and provides images and condition notes; Elmwoods provides a detailed four-piece composition, lengths, stamps and an estimate of £100–£150 for Lot 211. The relationship between the two listings remains unestablished pending direct confirmation from Arthur Johnson & Sons and Elmwoods, and any final sale prices or buyer premiums have not been provided in the supplied material.
