Like a beautiful, powerful woman, nothing needs to be added or taken away to enhance their beauty.” Many sizable new pearls will be on display at the Assael exhibition in Las Vegas. Thanks to the specialized craftsmen who are also engineers of jewelry, the new Assael South Sea double pearl drop earrings have an all but invisible connection between the pearls. Available in round or baroque styles, these earrings make a commanding statement for women of all types. And for those wanting a mighty impact with a lighter touch, the new bold baroque pearl pendant on a silk cord is the perfect hint of power and versatility. Wear it with everything from a Chanel blazer to the trendy new jumpsuits strutting down the runways in Haute Couture fashion. Or create a conversation starter with the new baroque pearl and white gold ring. The pearl is presented on a reflective surface of highly polished white gold, a treasure to be admired and enjoyed every time you pick up your phone or shake a friend’s hand.
