As I write this it is still unseasonably cold and wintery and so a shot of summer in the form of bright blue turquoise by Lana Bramlette is a welcome sight. This necklace also has a very agreeable price – USD $655. With gold jewellery prices still hovering near stratospheric, it was a pleasant surprise to see this 14k yellow gold piece going for about the same as some higher end costume items.

It is 19.5 inches long and available from Bergdorf Goodman.
