Puzzle Pebble Necklace Lepidolite — Silver & Gemstone Necklace | Summer Strand
Design Inspiration
This necklace draws on the simple pleasure of collecting pebbles at the beach. People often become unexpectedly attached to a particular stone, treasuring it for its shape, colour, or the memory it carries.
In the Puzzle Pebble series, Nicole elevates these humble forms by placing a carefully selected gemstone at the centre of the design. The supporting bead strands echo the subtle patterns created when waves sort pebbles along the shoreline.
Nicole often collects stones herself, sometimes keeping them as small worry stones — tactile reminders of quiet moments by the sea
Materials & Craftsmanship
The necklace is constructed in sterling silver and features:
• a central lepidolite gemstone
• multi-strand garnet and tourmaline bead strands
• a hand-fabricated puzzle clasp mechanism
The sculptural clasp is both functional and decorative. It visually anchors the visual composition and allows the necklace to open and close through a carefully engineered interlocking movement.
Wear & Styling
Despite its rich visual texture, the necklace is comfortable to wear and sits beautifully along the neckline. Wear the strands twisted up for a structured look or unwind them for a slightly longer and more casual feel.
