Hollywood placed a large order.

At Sunday’s GBK Golden Globe Awards, attendees will be gifted a swag bag, the contents of which will include this teal peacock quartz briolette pendant (pictured, at right) by independent Cary, N.C.-based jewelry designer Candice Yagmin, The News & Observer reports. She appears to have quite the business going on Etsy, with 1,531 items listed as of this writing.

“When I think of the Golden Globes, I think of elegance and class,” Yagmin told the N&O. “Emeralds were the first gemstone that came to mind. I think this teal peacock hydro quartz briolette captures the beauty and intensity of this classic jewel in an affordable way.”

Wilkerson Testimonials

Wilkerson: “They Feel Like Family”

Newton’s Jewelers in Fort Smith, Ark., was a true institution. But after being at the helm for most of his life, owner (and descendent of the original founder) Kelly Newton decided it was time to retire. He chose Wilkerson to handle the sale. “I’ve known the owners of Wilkerson for a long, long time. I felt at home with them,” he says. The final retirement sale was just a “blast” and the Wilkerson sales team made it so very simple and straightforward, says Newton. Would he recommend Wilkerson to others? Absolutely. “They’ve done incredible work,” says Newton. “They feel like family.”
