“The circle is a powerful symbol of unity, a line that never ends, so we decided going forward that it would become our messenger, carrying our vision of inclusivity, wholeness, and hope,” says jewelry designer, sculptor, and philanthropist David Yurman, recalling a creative process that took place during a highly tumultuous 2020. What resulted is the new Elements collection, conceived with his painter wife, Sybil, cofounder and co-CEO of the eponymous Manhattan-based company that they established as newlyweds 41 years ago. (Son Evan is chief creative officer.) Expanding on the brand’s hallmark cable motif, Elements’ unisex gold or silver hoop necklace can be left unadorned or hung with reversible pendants fashioned of malachite, mother-of-pearl, tigereye, and other semiprecious stones, as well as pavé diamonds. The effect is transportingly classical—one can easily imagine seeing it at all the best places in ancient Greece—but it also offers a modern simplicity that can go from boardroom to beach. “Like all our jewelry, it’s about harmony, balance, and what really touches us,” Sybil explains. “Stones are elements, and the disc you choose is a reflection of your emotional self.” And, of course, the color of the outfit you’re wearing. davidyurman.com —Mitchell Owens
