I am totally smitten with this collection of artisan jewelry from Passementerie. Courtney Lane is a young designer based in Savannah, Georgia who's work has a unique style. Combining precious gemstones, Tahitian & South Sea pearls, stunning bead work, solid sterling silver, 18-24 carat gold & platinum Courtney derives her inspiration from art, architecture, history & fashion.

If I was forced to choose just one piece, I think the London Topaz Earrings may just get over the line, but then again I love the gorgeous Caviare earrings or the Marcheline Necklace - decisions, decisions!! Which is your favourite?
