This Joseff set is elegantly simple and simply elegant---and oh so wearable. It is done in the semi matte finish referred to as Russian gold. This finish is the one for which Joseff is known.

Lovely necklace signed "HK HANDMADE STERLING DENMARK" made of sterling and enamel.

It also shows that "HK" is Koppel's signature, aside from his work with Jensen. This bracelet is designed with bl...
