Set of jewelry displayed on a flat white background. It features two necklaces and two bracelets. The jewelry is made out of gold alloy with dashes of blue, green, and black lacquer creating a striped pattern. The necklaces are positioned on the upper right side. One of the necklaces is smaller in circumference and is positioned within the larger one in the photo creating double rings. The bracelets are positioned to the right of the necklace - one lower than the other. The bracelets are positioned separately not like the necklaces. The shapes are similar, having one slightly smaller than the other. All pieces are rigid. The necklaces have hook-fasten clasps that seamlessly blend.
