Caravan Mosaic
The Story
This necklace celebrates old trade routes where Venetian glass met African brass and Rajasthani lacquer. Each bead is a passage mark—millefiori chevrons in indigo and ivory, painted cylinders glowing amber and rose, turquoise-toned and lapis-toned spheres, and coral-red discs worn smooth. Hand-strung with tiny seed-bead spacers in pink, green, and navy, with earrings pairing a coral-toned bead above a lapis-toned sphere on gold-tone hooks.
Styling
Layer over an ivory linen tunic or a deep teal silk kurta for daytime markets and evening gatherings. The multicolored palette means it pairs as easily with denim as it does with embroidered cotton or block-printed maxis.
