A Modernist Chatham emerald and pearl bracelet in the manner of Arthur King. The tapered 14k free form bracelet is set with five LAB Grown large Chatham emerald crystals and ten freshwater pearls, enhanced with approximately .30cts round white diamonds. Chatham emeralds, developed by Carroll Chatham in the late 1950's, were lab grown in the exact same manner as the naturally occurring stone. Originally cut and polished, the roughs soon became the darling of studio and artist- jewelers everywhere. The bright color and unusual play of light attracted not only the jewelers but the buyers. The bonus.. no two are ever alike! Brutalistically feminine! One of a kind.
