What do vintage Italian sunglasses, classic western wear and a 1927 Schiaparelli bow intarsia sweater have in common? They were all part of the inspiration behind our new hand-beaded Lariat Necklaces! The four unique color combinations of these Lariat Necklaces were inspired by a collection of vintage Italian sunglasses spotted at Cligancourt flea market in Paris. The sunglasses were made with layers of colorful lucite stacked to create alternating stripes of the most unusual and inspiring color combinations. With the lariat design of these hand-beaded necklaces, we thought about traditional western wear neckerchiefs and bolos as well as Elsa Schiaparelli’s classic 1927 intarsia sweater featuring a trompe l’oiel bowtie rendered in black and white. We wanted the essence of a classic ribbon bow but much more understated and refined as a balanced counterpoint to the colorful glass beads.
