Tony Duquette Pearl and Diamond Necklace

This shopping section of this week's issue of New York magazine highlights a pretty amazing pearl and diamond necklace by legendary decorator Tony Duquette.  The bib-style necklace contains 62 Baroque South Sea pearls and 29 carats of diamonds, and is set in white gold. Duquette, who decorated homes for J. Paul Getty and the Duchess of Windsor, died in 1999; the line of one-of-a-kind Duquette pieces is actually created by Hutton Wilkinson, his business partner. This necklace is available exclusively at New York's Bergdorf Goodman for a whopping $227,675.
