The Golden Gift

 

A golden gift - in more ways than one. Angelina Jolie and jewelry designer Robert Procop donated this citrine necklace to the Smithsonian’s National Gem Collection in 2015. It features 64 cushion cut citrines and a stunning 177.11-carat pear-shaped citrine pendant set in 18K gold. Called the "Jolie Citrine Necklace," it is housed in the same hall that contains the Hope Diamond and the Star of Asia sapphire. Jolie designed this necklace in collaboration with Procop as part of the Style of Jolie collection. Proceeds from the sales of jewelry in this collection are donated to the Education Partnership for Children in Conflict, which builds schools for children in conflict-affected areas. The first few schools were built in Afghanistan. Courtesy: RP Studio
