Lagos’ ‘Caviar’ Gets a Color Update for Fall
The jewelry brand’s signature Caviar line is getting recharged with colored gemstones.

Philadelphia--Caviar is synonymous with luxury and affluence, but in case it’s not to everyone’s taste (pun intended), Lagos is offering consumers some new variations on the brand staple.
Steven Lagos originally designed the “Caviar” collection in 1984, and it is his namesake brand’s most recognizable motif.
Now, Lagos is launching “Caviar Icon,” an assortment of 18-karat gold pieces accented with beads of amethyst, peridot, pearl, garnet and turquoise for a Technicolor update.
Key pieces from Caviar Icon include long necklaces and lariats that customers can wrap to create their desired length as well as vibrant fringe earrings.
Lagos also is expanding its best-selling collection, “Black Caviar,” for fall. The line, which features ceramic beads with 18-karat gold and diamonds, will now be available in sterling silver and diamond versions as well.
Hoop earrings and stackable rings will also receive a sterling silver update.
Lagos’ Caviar Icon collection is available now, in stores and on Lagos.com.
