Diamond Rio Collar

Once I had a dream. I dreamed up a collection that would tell the history of the most important forest in the world and portray its unique beauty. This forest, Amazonia, happens to be in my native country, Brazil. I put my heart and soul into this collection. I wanted to create pieces of jewelry that would encapsulate the life and beauty of the Amazon, allowing you to experience the lush vegetation and heartbeat of the forest, and let you see the animals in their own habitat. These pieces are inspired by the curves of the Amazon River. Dazzling brilliant-cut gemstones are set in 18 KT gold to sparkle like moving water’s gleaming surface. Three years ago, the Amazon was engulfed by devastating fires. That’s when I felt compelled to do something. My heart was hurting, and I couldn’t sleep, thinking about how mankind could inflict such damage on Mother Nature’s most bio-diverse land. This collection means so much to me. I’m donating 10% of the proceeds directly to the Rainforest Trust, where funds are used where they’re needed most, directly on the grounds of the Rain Forest.  Gemstone: 7.10 Carats of G-H Color White Diamonds (243 PCS) Metal: 18K Gold, 26 Grams Colors: White, Yellow & Rose Measurements: 18" total length, including detachable 2" extender; 16" long without extender
