Designed by a contemporary artist, this never-worn necklace is a true statement piece, blending bold design with stunning craftsmanship. It features an oxidized 18K sterling silver adjustable chain, allowing you to wear it at three different lengths: 18”, 24”, and 33”. Whether you prefer a choker or a longer look, this necklace adapts to your style.

The centerpiece is gold over sterling with green and pink tourmalines and open-back cubic zirconia accents, creating a striking focal point. The necklace also includes a delicate tassel made from freshwater pearls and sapphire beads, with the top of the tassel finished in tiny bead-set CZs for added sparkle.

Trust me when I tell you this necklace looks so much better in person! It's really a gorgeous piece.
