PELLUCE : Colors from the earth and the sunset seem to meet for a twilight effect in this Y-necklace from Vancox’s Pelluce collection, which features glimmering, faceted colored gemstones in fancy cuts and shapes. Here, marquis-cut smoky quartz stones mingle with light and dark purple amethysts, all set in 18-karat rose gold and accented with diamonds. The necklace closes with a lobster-claw clasp and has an extender.
Although Vancox, a Brazilian jewelry house founded in 1982, has established an international reputation for crafting luscious gemstone jewelry, it isn't just the quality and attention to detail that the company strives for. Instead, it is the aesthetics. Vancox uses many different stone cuts and different gold surfaces and textures to add interest to the pieces, and makes use of pavé-set gemstones, a type of setting used for diamonds and also for colored gemstones, in which small stones are set very close together.
