THIS MIGHT BE *THE* STATEMENT SQUASH.
The lapidary work on this remarkable statement piece is nothing short of jaw-dropping. Hundreds of needlepoint turquoise stones are set in tiny serrated bezels, adorning a dozen blossoms on a double-strand of desert pearls and the complementing enormous naja anchor. Classic in style, mesmerizing in stonework, and show-stopping in size – this is that squash you’ve been waiting for!
