Tumbled gemstone chips are the basis for Kara Yoo's reimagination of the puka shell bracelets and necklaces popular in their youth. Here, Kara has tried to elevate them by matching them with baroque rice pearls.
These are lavender amethyst chips, which give a bit more of a laid-back vibe than you would get with a more intense hue.
