Colored gemstone pendants and dangling
earrings suit all ages and lifestyles
Big, bold, beautiful jewels express a woman’s personality, make a fashion statement or recall old Hollywood glamour.
“My target audience is fashionable, flamboyant and open-minded,” says Tamir Pinchasi, G.G., designer at Harpaz, New York City. Pendants and dangling earrings that grab attention with interesting details in unique settings celebrate colored gemstones.
