Petite Kirsten

Indian brass beads
Nepalese pendant inlaid with turquoise and coral
brass toggle clasp

The Petite Kirsten necklace is one of my most popular pieces for good reason. It can be worn as a long strand or wrapped two or three times as a short necklace. The necklace features a mix of Indian brass and a mosaic Nepalese pendant with turquoise and coral accents. All of the brass beads appear to be uniform but if you wrap it three times you will see two rows of beads are flat and one row is faceted, so they catch the light differently.

This design was named after my dear friend Kirsten, my first Production Assistant. I planned to call it simply “The Kirsten” but a comedienne friend said, “No, not The Kirsten. Call it the Petite Kirsten” which describes her well.

It is the perfect travel necklace as you can change up your look so easily and effortlessly. It matches beautifully with the Nepal Special earrings and works well in combination with our entire brass collection and many of our chain necklaces. Pictured here with the Nefertiti earrings, the Mantra necklace and the Funky PK necklace worn as a bracelet.

Each necklace uses unique stones and color or shape may vary from piece to piece, making each one as unique as its owner.

Solid and amazing piece of art

Thank you for everything! The necklace, the little bag and the delivery.

Versatile and striking

I love this piece because you can wear it in different ways. One of the first pieces I ever bought from Saskia was the Sundar which I got at a Christmas fair one year. It was so different from the same old things for sale everywhere that I fell in love with it. When I saw this I realized how striking it would look paired with the Sundar but I also realized it works so well on its own that it was a no brainer to add to my collection. I love pieces that can be adjusted to different necklines. I can tell you how many compliments I've gotten on it. Saskia's pieces have an artistic quality to them that you don't find in department stores.
