Piece of the Week: Jacquie Aiche’s Starry Galaxy Necklace
The necklace is featured in the brand’s “Rebel Heart” campaign starring Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo.
Jacquie Aiche’s “Starry Galaxy” inlay necklace with onyx, opal, and pavé diamonds, set in 14-karat yellow gold. ($10,040)
Who doesn’t enjoy staring up into a sky filled with stars?
With Jacquie Aiche’s “Starry Galaxy” necklace, you don’t have to look very far.
Set in 14-karat yellow gold, the necklace is made of opal inlayed in onyx with a border of pavé diamonds.
Six sparkling diamond stars are also placed in the onyx sky.
The pendant design is akin to a painting of the galaxy, using gemstones rather than paint.
“Our ‘Starry Galaxy’ necklace is all about finding beauty in contrast,” said designer Jacquie Aiche.
“When the sky is at its darkest, we can really see the stars shine. It’s a beautiful lesson—the darker times that we go through allow us to have a deeper appreciation for all of the light we experience.”
Aiche creates her pieces with intention, each one meant to be more than just fine jewelry.
They are incredibly personal and sacred amulets, said the brand.
While gemstones look beautiful, they are also believed to have metaphysical properties.
“Onyx is a powerful protection stone and opal is known to inspire creative energy and happiness. Together, they create a healing talisman that has the power to lighten up the darkest days,” said Aiche.
