In the past year, Bottega Veneta’s jewellery designs have swung from Victorian inspired cubic zirconia collar necklaces, to fluorescent enamels, to layers of oxidized silver. BV considers this their lower end line; their fine jewellery pieces sell in the mid to high five figures.

This is an interesting piece but I frankly can’t see shelling out $7950 for it. The company changed their sales policy last year – jewellery no longer gets marked down at the end of the season. So don’t wait for this one to go on sale…if you love it, you’ll have to pony up.
