Barcarolle
A hand-strung strand of vintage white pearls — 5.5 inches, the same pink-inflected luster as the pearls in Cove — extended by a run of 14k white gold jump rings that make the bracelet adjustable across several lengths. Two stones sit along its length: a trillion-cut lab diamond bezel-set in 14k white gold mid-strand, and a 0.60-carat pear-cut aquamarine floating from the final jump ring. The diamond came out of a broken piece and was set again here; the aquamarine was chosen for how it reads against these particular pearls.
