Glass Beach Gold-Plated Pearl, Opal, Silk Necklace

Using an eclectic mix of found materials, Lizzie Fortunato creates statement jewelry imbued with a warm optimism. This season's lineup offers jolts of uplifting color that can easily be dressed up or down.

Cast from gold-plated brass, the 'Glass Beach' necklace borders its clear, resin center gem with oversized freshwater pearls and Peruvian pink opals that then extend into a silk charmeuse braid.
