Centipede choker necklace

EDITOR'S REVIEW

Daniela Villegas’ Backyard collection is full of creepy crawlies that you would normally go out of your way to avoid. In her hands, however, insects are transformed into exquisitely detailed jewels that capture the beauty of this much maligned sub-sect of the animal kingdom. Beetles are a recurring theme, but no stone is left unturned by Villegas. This velvet choker features a gold centipede, another a pair of stag beetles clasping green garnets in their mandibles (£2,412).
