Her jewels were unique, dramatic and elegant. The vivid oval Turquoise cabochon is of such lovely color and has great warmth and luster. The turquoise is surrounded by a halo of 15 silvery white pearls of great beauty. The pearls are 4-5mm in diameter. The jewels are set in a wonderful 14 Karat Yellow Gold design with the pearls set in cut down collets. The gold is a warm antique yellow gold. And Turquoise is all the rage today.
