Change It Up: Jewelry That Transforms To Create Myriad Looks

These contemporary looks give a nod to antique jewelry of the 18th and early 19th century when parures of jewelry were fashionable and would revolve around one statement necklace that would either split apart or be accompanied by a variety of pieces Some of the necklaces would detach to become two bracelets, while smaller components had fittings to transform them into hair ornaments, small pins or dangles for the bottom of day-to-night earrings Foundrae revolves primarily around necklaces, but a variety of bracelets and earrings offer a similar way of connecting elements which convey each wearer's individual story as their life continues to reveal itself.

"Deborah Pagnani's 18K gold 'Pill Link' necklace can be styled 6 different ways by adding in extender links which open and close and a centerpiece of a larger gold baguette statement link All of the variations on the 'basic necklace' feature a few enameled links interspersed The basic single necklace can be connected to a 7" bracelet to form a longer necklace, a lariat which can also be worn on the wrist, or a double graduated necklace.

For this particular oval link bracelet, you can change up colors and add more than one sparkly link as in the pink and orange sapphire version Their 'latchet' necklace reveals two circular links, one which opens to attach a tassel of gemstones Alberian & Aulde's latchet earrings feature a white sapphire top and one circular link set with white sapphires which can be worn alone or can open to connect to a larger black rhodium sterling silver and white sapphire round enhancer, a briolette drop, or a tassel created from thin black rhodium plated silver chains.
