New The Met Store Cypriot Twist Pearl Necklace and Triple-Hoop Earrings Set

Art jewelry makes a unique gift for her.

This timeless jewelry reinterprets an elegant gold bracelet from Cyprus in The Met collection.We’ve embellished the original adornment’s characteristic twist motif with so-called “baroque” pearls, named after the word barroco, a Portuguese term for a pearl with an irregular shape. The Museum’s bracelet belongs to the esteemed Cesnola Collection, which comprises Cypriot art and artifacts made between ca. 2500 B.C. and ca. A.D. 300, and serves as the most important and comprehensive assemblage of its kind in the Western world.

Due to the natural elements in this jewelry, the color of the pearls may vary.
