Diamond & Gemstone Necklace

Among Pharrell’s most prized creations with Jacob, this necklace - from Pharrell's personal collection - stands as an exuberant study in contrast, an exercise in restraint as much as one of excess, fusing the discipline of traditional royal jewels with the playfulness and color-forward imagination that defines Pharrell’s universe. It is a piece that radiates personality, intention, and swagger: a technicolor constellation of major stones assembled with both precision and joy.

Crafted in 18K yellow gold and weighing 261.1 grams, the necklace features an extraordinary arrangement of diamonds and gemstones, each stone chosen for scale, character, and vibrancy. In total, the necklace carries:

Diamond Suite

24.09 carats of Cushion Cut Diamonds (5 stones, K–J color, SI1 clarity)

9.51 carats of Asscher Cut Diamonds (2 stones, J color, VS2 clarity)

14.10 carats of Round Brilliant Cut Diamonds (3 stones, K–L color, VS2–SI1 clarity)

5.03 carats Princess Cut Diamond (K color, SI1 clarity)

14.49 carats Emerald Cut Diamonds (3 stones, K color, VS2–SI1 clarity)

5.01 carats Radiant Cut Diamond (K color, SI1 clarity)

5.00 carats Heart Shape Diamond (K color, SI2 clarity)

5.01 carats Fancy Intense Yellow Heart Shape Diamond (SI2 clarity)

Colored Gemstones

16.48 carats of Colombian Emeralds (3 stones)

21.48 carats of Sri Lankan Cushion Cut Blue Sapphires (3 stones)

The result is a kaleidoscopic, almost ceremonial arrangement of stones spanning whites, yellows, greens, and blues. It is simultaneously playful and regal, a collision of luxury and imagination, and a reminder of Pharrell’s peerless ability to merge high jewelry with cultural expression.

Yet despite its exuberance, the structure of the necklace is rooted in the traditions of historic European court jewelry — symmetrical arrangements, major center stones, architectural goldwork. Pharrell and Jacob take that lineage and remix it with maximal color and pop-art sensibility, creating a piece that is both a homage and a disruption.

One of the most unforgettable pieces in Pharrell's archive, this necklace embodies his evolution as a collector and cultural force: bold, joyful, genre-defying, and executed by Jacob with uncompromising craftsmanship.
