David Holcombe: 'Your elegant necklace harkens back to the days when men and women wore those white, puffy, pleated collars. Hals and others painted plenty of them. You retain that idea and make it independent of the somber costumes of that time. Now it's gold and fantastic. The folds create a lovely play of light and dark. It's not for everyone, but it is for the intrepid.'
