Vintage Jade, 18K Gold & Cultured Pearl Earrings

The St. Regis Summit to Skyline Escape: Aspen to Fifth Avenue Luxury

Your New Best Friend: A Mini Magic Yorkshire Terrier

These one-of-a-kind earrings are handcrafted from vintage hand-carved jade elements, reimagined in 18-karat gold and accented with luminous cultured pearls. The jade ranges in tone from soft celadon to deep green, each piece uniquely veined and shaped, preserving the character of its earlier life. 


By pairing reclaimed jade with the warmth of high-karat gold and the timeless elegance of pearls, this design bridges heritage and modern refinement. 


Nikki’s signature wire work reflects a sculptural sensibility developed over decades in design. Working primarily in 18-karat gold, she hand-forms each connection and setting, allowing the structure to feel both intentional and organic. Her wire work is not merely functional — it becomes part of the composition, creating movement, balance, and lightness within each piece. 


Nikki Sedacca is a multidisciplinary creative whose work spans textiles, fine art, jewelry, and the curation of interiors. With over 40 years of experience, she brings a refined eye for material and proportion to everything she designs. Her jewelry — distinguished by hand-formed 18k gold wire work and the use of reclaimed elements — reflects her belief in transformation, craftsmanship, and timeless design.
