- The necklace features a unique design composed of five vibrant tubes: one in deep navy paired with crisp white, another showcasing a lively green complemented by white, a striking solid red, a charming blend of white and turquoise, and a delicate combination of navy, pink, and white. At its centre, a lustrous white pearl button stands out, adorned with a burst of colours, including yellow, white, green, red, and turquoise.
