INSIDE AND OUT
Layering is always a smart strategy for stylish dressing, whether it involves clothes or jewelry. Camellia Westbury’s pieces place semiprecious stones within jeweled cages, for a layered effect with tons of dimension and versatility. The handmade pieces have a bohemian, artful look and each one is different from the next. Designs from the Quantum collection feature a collage of neutral stones — amber, crystal quartz, smoky quartz, red agate, yellow jade and hematite — that are indispensible year-round. camelliawestbury.com
