Partially displayed, a thin gold hoop necklace. Hanging from the hoop are separate forms; the first form is a equally thin gold beam which holds three upside-down white cones of various sizes, and and at the very end is triangle tip. The second form (to the viewers right side) is the same gold beam but a tad shorter, with three white discs stacked upon each other and a gold triangle at the end. To the right of that (according to viewers perspective) is the final accent form; two gold beams that connect together, creating a triangle. It contains two small but different sized white spheres and a singular cone.
