You’ve seen and read about the new cabochons over here, a selection of gorgeous jewellery pieces like earrings, pendants and rings which come in Carnelian/Rose Gold, Malachite/Yellow Gold or Turquoise/White Gold for you to choose from. But for those of you who love a statement-making piece that’s way bigger and absolutely versatile, that’s where Van Cleef & Arpels’ Transformable Long Necklace comes in, an entirely new style that’s an extension of the Perlée Couleurs jewellery collection.

The iconic Perlée round golden beads are threaded together individually by hand to bring out a distinctive shimmer, coming together in three (different-sized) rings to form a sizeable pendant that’s secured together with a unique clasp system and fixed on a long yellow gold chain. Now, the key feature about the Transformable Long Necklace lies in its versatility, as the central ring can actually be removed and replaced with one of 3 additional rings the necklace comes with, such as a bright red Coral, deep black Onyx or sky blue Turquoise.

And while the Transformable Long Necklace (SGD29,000) makes for an absolute head-turner due to its sheer size, it does carry a playful spirit that’s very much in line with the bold and joyful pieces in the Perlée Couleurs jewellery collection. And if you can’t wait to try it on for yourself, the Transformable Long Necklace, along with several new pieces which joined the Perlée family in 2019, is now available across all Van Cleef & Arpels boutiques in Singapore.
