Brilliant Earth created this one-of-a-kind bolo tie necklace for Beyoncé to wear during her Cowboy Carter tour.
Chicago—Beyoncé wore a custom bolo tie necklace crafted by Brilliant Earth during her Chicago performance on the Cowboy Carter Tour at Soldier Field last weekend.

The design was inspired by her “Cowboy Carter” album and her “Queen Bey” persona. Fans of the Grammy-winning artist are referred to collectively as the “Beyhive.”

The one-of-a-kind necklace features a bee wearing a crown and a 14.46-carat black diamond surrounded by 5.70 carats of diamonds set in 18-karat yellow gold.

The piece “captures her singular brilliance and a bespoke design that reflects her bold Western aesthetic,” said the company.

“Beyoncé is a treasure, and so is this pendant,” said Pam Catlett, chief brand officer at Brilliant Earth. 

“Our extraordinary design team channeled her transformative artistry into a piece that celebrates her cultural impact and our craftsmanship. It is an honor and delight for our brand to celebrate Beyonce’s iconic artistry and her unrelenting and inspiring commitment to self-expression.”

Fans attending the Cowboy Carter tour have been dressing to the nines for the event, with concertgoers opting for Americana looks accented by cowboy hats, leather belts, fringe jackets, and bolo ties.

New York City-based Gabby Elan Jewelry, best known for its custom grills, created a pair inspired by Beyoncé’s tour, featuring turquoise and diamonds.
