Although its genesis is different, this is for me reminiscent of the Buddhist mala strand (beads that can be used/worn as a bracelet or a necklace and are an aid to meditation), this necklace by Carolina Bucci is pretty tactile. Net-A-Porter notes, “Carolina Bucci’s necklace is inspired by one-of-a-kind vintage charms found nestled in a drawer in her Florentine workshop. This handcrafted, limited edition piece is strung with smooth eagle eye and sunset stones – in complementary shades of peach, pink and gray – and punctuated with 3.40-carats of shimmering pink sapphires set in 18-karat gold links.

It sells for USD$1,320.
