………………………….BERRY………..on the PEACOCK sweater it is so HOLIDAY…..One side of the bead is a beautiful Berry red….like Holly berries, and then parts of the bead are a deep red. The sweater color came out faded but, the three pictures of the sweaters are better…………However, the BERRY is as it looks…………..luscious!……It was the Berry necklace I used on the ROSE SHADOW FLORAL print……..This is going to become a season-less necklace. ………..enjoy………………..much Love………………………Louis

……………………………..CRANBERRY is a rich clear red/wine color. The embroidery has very complimentary autumnal colors like pumpkin, orange, olive, azure, gold and vivid purple to name a few…..There is just something about this Cranberry color with Indigo denim that looks SO RIGHT. The necklace and earring shown here is called MULTI, and is the only necklace with different colors. It works perfectly with the emb, and other color sweaters too. I know this will become a favorite because it is a great complexion color. Everyone looks good in Cranberry………………….

…………………………The HARP NECKLACE, J357131, is a design I did at Anne Klein, and again comes from archives. It was beautiful then, and it’s beautiful NOW! I find it quite amazing that I rarely, if ever, find any of the hundreds of pieces that were done for the AK Couture Collection on ebay or any other outlet where jewelry is sold. I have seen jewelry that claims to be Anne Klein Couture, but it’s a false claim. Only jewelry with small oval metal tags that say Anne Klein Couture are the real McCoy.

……………………….The Harp necklace starts at the top with an open link chain, which is then connected to a series of graduated barrel shaped beads, all in Russian Gold. Please notice this entire necklace is strung with CHAIN….From the barrel beads are EIGHT SPACED mixed shape and color beads. Emerald, Fuchsia, Amber, Blue, Red and tiny gold beads are dispersed on the chain. The OVAL RUSSIAN GOLD piece is next, a thing of beauty, and makes this necklace a very UNIQUE piece……There are FIVE GOLD CHAINS interspersed with more color beads including “TIGER EYE” strung within the oval giving it a “Harp” look.  All the chains and beads are held in place at the top and bottom of the oval with different shape and color beads….This is easily seen in the photo….The workmanship on the oval alone demands the price of the entire necklace….This is a GEM! The Oval measures approx. 2 and 3/8ths inches long, and 1 7/8ths inch wide…..Due to the small amount that has been ordered this will surely be an immediate COLLECTORS PIECE……..I love the necklace mixed with the new 72 inch Byzantine necklace. They look spectacular together, and the two together looks like hundreds of dollars. The GOLD HOOP in the photos to the right will be coming in Oct/Nov. and is part of a 4 hoop set. There will be two set avail in different colors…..”THE CLASSICS” and the “EXOTICS”. They will be available in both PIERCED and CLIP and will be GIFT BOXED!……These are ESSENTIAL EARRINGS!…………..The HARP is a piece I know you will enjoy!…………………much Love…………………..Louis

………………………The MALTESE CROSS & COMPANION BEAD NECKLACE SET, J357132, were made for each other! These two pieces are also from my Anne Klein Couture archives. I have always loved Maltese crosses, and they have shown up on most designer collections for decades. It was a favorite of Chanel, and can often be seen on the runways of Dolce & Gabanna, Gucci, Valentino, Gianfranco Ferre…..and many more……..,.This Maltese Cross has the look of the ages…..a piece that may have been worn by a woman at a royal court…….The metal work is very detailed with a fine rope outlining the entire cross. Within the cross is a large round deep Carnelian stone surrounding by twelve seed pearls, and four onyx square stone all faux. The keeper at the top of the cross is a beautiful piece in itself. It is attached to the cross with a beautiful hinge, and within another smaller faux carnelian stone…..The cross is approx. 2 1/2 inches long  not including the keeper, and 2 1/8th inches wide…..The DOUBLE RING CHAIN sets off the piece to perfection……The COMPANION NECKLACE works perfectly with the Maltese cross and will be great with so many more pieces you already own. It is SUPER LIGHT IN WEIGHT! It is made in RESIN beads, not glass, which keeps the weight and price where we needed it to be to keep the price for two pieces reasonable. Some may think of the piece as a religious symbol, but for many it is more decorative than religious. Anne Klein used to wear Maltese crosses herself………………..This is another very unique piece with detailing you rarely see in Fashion jewelry today, unless it’s hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars……………………………….

enjoy………much Love…………..Louis
