Pearl,Interrupted
HOT ITEM
From Vermeer’s “Girl with a Pearl Earring”
to Hepburn’s iconic four-stranded number
in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” the pearl has
long held a lock on feminine sophistication
(just ask any fashionable First Lady).
But rarely does it step past its traditional
boundaries, particularly as a wedding
piece. Enter Mexican designer Pavel
Perez’s handmade woven bracelet — an
unexpectedly funky take on the classic
bridal baubles. An intricate riot of twisted
silver wire, its ultimate effect is that of
a lustrous, intertwined web. (Another
departure from the norm: It rings in under
$200, which leaves that much more wiggle
room in the honeymoon budget.) Iridescent
freshwater pearls in all shapes and sizes
punctuate the flexible cuff, which gently
molds to every curve in your wrist for a
perfect fit. A paragon of fairy-tale whimsy,
it’s ideal for any modern bride who wants
to pair delicacy with modernity. In other
words, a true match made in heaven.
