I was just flipping through the Lustre Lookbook and haven't gotten past pages 22-23. It's an amazing South Sea and South Sea keshi pearl and gemstone necklace from Autore. A masterpiece! And it breaks down into 32 parts which can be worn as brooches, pendants and a strand. Wow!

Here's the link to the online format. Just flip past the browless babe to page 22.

Whatever I expected to see, it wasn't that! That is an amazing piece... yes, it would be fun to see the parts separately.

I didn't see a price listed, heh heh. (If you have to ask....)

It's as if someone crept into my mind while I slept and stole my dreams.

But, the question before us is, can these pieces be reassembled into a weapon of World Domination?

What a great necklace! I also really like the Chiffon Garden on page 25 and how it incorporates the akoyas.

Trust me -- the world would stop and your dormant plumbing skills would snap into action! Of course, if you could afford that necklace, your butler would call the staff maintenance person to take care of it for you...
