We meet Isabel Archer in The Portrait of a Lady by Henry James, where she embodies American qualities of youthful goodwill, spirit, and intelligence, though she falls prey to the false charm and sophistication of her frenemy, Madame Merle. This 20" gemstone necklace has energetic color with classic style to honor the lady who may still find a way to break with the conventions that bind her. The top strand is lovely pale morganite (pink variety of beryl) and the bottom two strands are pink and blue tourmaline, respectively. They are spaced with sterling silver and Czech glass beads and strung on natural silk cord for fluidity and strength. The necklace fastens with a stunning white bronze lotus shaped hook and eye clasp.

Cost: $208.00 USD
