Sydney Evan jewelry collection is both delicate and powerful. The designer Rosanne Karmes makes each piece she creates express an aspect of her spiritual beliefs. Her bead charm bracelets are a perfect example of her innovative approach to jewelry design. The polished ivory beads are strung on an elasticized cord, from which dangles a 14 karat white gold "nazar" or evil eye charm (an amulet from Islamic mythology that protects against the evil eye). It is studded with twelve tiny diamonds (a total of .04 carats) surrounding an eyeball made up of five tiny sapphires (a total of .03 carats). |
