Vague de d’Or Mckella Necklace

A sinuous ribbon of 18k gold-plated stainless steel undulates like liquid sunlight on the Seine, creating a mesmerizing hybrid of texture and flow. This design is a study in rhythmic contrast, alternating between dense, serpentine sections and slender, elongated oval links. The "ribbon" segments mimic the behavior of liquid metal, offering a smooth, continuous reflection that pools against the skin like mercury.

These solid waves are interspersed with open links that introduce a breath of negative space, preventing the piece from feeling visually heavy and adding an architectural lightness. The interplay creates a dynamic light show: the serpentine parts offer a rolling, soft glow, while the oval links catch the sun in sharp, defined flashes. Polished to mirror-bright perfection, the chain catches every fugitive gleam in fluid harmony. Sculptural yet weightless, this necklace is the tide distilled into radiance, a whispered horizon worn close to the heart, perfect for the woman who moves with the effortless grace of water.
