Neelab Reverie Necklace with Neelab Drops

Like its name, Neelab, the Persian-Urdu word for blue-green water, this necklace moves with the quiet, hypnotic beauty of light playing upon a still pool. The chain is a procession of graduated oval and marquise zirconia units, each bezel-set in gold and punctuated with smaller round zirconia accents that catch the light with every turn. At the heart of the necklace sits an oval central unit, its deep teal cabochon bed alive with fine gold scrollwork tendrils, a garden submerged beneath still waters, framed in a border of pavé-set zirconia. Suspended below is a teardrop pendant of commanding presence, its smooth glass-filled emerald cabochon encircled by a double halo of fine granule work and a crown of bold round zirconia stones, each held in individual gold bezels that radiate outward like ripples on the surface of Neelab's waters.The Neelab Drops distil the reverie of the necklace into a form that is at once intimate and arresting. A pavé-set oval stud, etched with the same delicate gold scrollwork as the necklace's central unit, forms the ear top, a quiet prelude to what follows. Suspended from it is a teardrop drop mirroring the pendant exactly, its deep teal cabochon ringed in fine granule work and crowned with a full halo of bezel-set round zirconia that shimmer like sunlight breaking through blue-green water, unhurried and luminous.
