Thanks to modern science, we've solved the mystery of rainbows. It turns out they aren't magic at all, just sunlight broken into a colorful spectrum by moisture in the air. But I prefer that my natural wonders keep their natural wonder. One visit to the to the remote waterfalls and lakes of Jiuzhaigou Valley in China is enough to convert even the most devout skeptics. Most stunning was the Five-Colored Pond that shimmers with different hues depending on the light. Of course there's a scientific explanation, but I prefer the legend that says it's because a beautiful Tibetan goddess used the water to rinse off her makeup.

In the spirit of that enchanted pond, we offer this spectacular necklace with 300 carats worth of smooth-polished, semi-precious stones including citrine, amethyst, green amethyst, rose and lemon quartz. Tucked among the stones, you'll find luminous freshwater pearls that help capture the light and enhance the stones' springtime glow. The 18" strand fastens with a .925 sterling silver, spring ring clasp. The elegant 7" matching bracelet also closes with a .925 sterling silver spring ring clasp. The French hook earrings feature a dangling stack of colorful stones that complete the ensemble.
