About the Item

Moi et Toi Pearl and Oval Diamond Pendant Necklace by Alexia Connellan This rare bi-color conjoined pearl pendant necklace is the perfect embodiment of the classic moi et toi themed jewel. Instead of 2 separate gems, this special piece has 2 conjoined pearls in 2 totally different colors: white cream and golden. I have looked at thousands of pearls and never seen any conjoined pearls that are 2 distinct colors! Pendant length from top or bail to bottom of pearl is 27mm / just over 1 inch 14k white gold Chain is 18 inches long Oval diamond in bezel bail: 5.8mm length x 4.5mm width x 3.7mm dept Conjoined pearl with 14k pearl cap: 19mm height x 13mm width x 13mm depth About 3mm of jump rings join the 2 pieces This piece truly signifies Two becomes one and would make the perfect gift for a special anniversary, Christmas or Hanukkah present, or gift for a new mom. Recognizing that many mining communities are composed of BIPOC, just like her, Connellan is committed to ethics and sustainability in sourcing and design. She uses ethically sourced Artisanal and Small-Scale Mined (ASM) colored gemstones and post-consumer recycled diamond melee, in her pieces whenever possible. Connellan aims to both benefit the environment, and bring more money and resources directly to local mining communities. An advocate for change, she encourages fellow designers to question gold and gemstone sources about mining practices, instilling a positive mark on the trade. Alexia Connellan creates bespoke fine jewelry, inspired by architecture, vibrant tropical colors, and the lushness of nature. Throughout her childhood, Alexia spent summers visiting her grandmother in Jamaica, surrounded by the elegance of Jamaican Georgian architecture, absorbing the style’s balance, proportion, and joy of color. Her meticulous approach to design has earned her three prestigious American Gem Trade Association (AGTA) Spectrum Awards, as well as a red-carpet prestige. Alexia Connellan Jewelry is based in Princeton, NJ and all pieces are made in the USA by some of the finest jewelers in the world. ----- This piece is part of the NYCJW HERE WE ARE Marketplace.
