Nikki Angel Brooch Pendant with Diamonds & Tahitian Pearl

Sculptural, versatile, and rich in detail, the Nikki Angel brooch pendant is a signature piece from llyn strong that blends fine art with wearable design. Created in the Midtown Greenville shop + studio, this piece moves beyond traditional jewelry, offering multiple ways to wear and interact with its form.

At its center, Nikki Angel is crafted from sterling silver using the studio’s Modullyn system, allowing for thoughtful construction and adaptability. Accents of 18k white gold bring structure and refinement, while 1.18 total carat weight of white diamonds add brilliance throughout the piece. These diamonds are carefully placed to enhance the form without overwhelming it, creating a balanced composition of light and texture.

Anchoring the design is a 9mm black Tahitian pearl. Known for its deep, reflective surface, the pearl introduces a sense of depth and contrast against the surrounding materials. Its natural luster shifts subtly in the light, offering variation in tone that complements the rest of the piece.

A Multi-Functional Design

The Nikki Angel is not limited to a single form. Designed as both a brooch and pendant, it offers flexibility depending on how you choose to wear it. The piece can be pinned to a jacket or garment, or worn as a pendant, allowing it to adapt across different settings.

One of its most distinctive features is the set of carved black druzy quartz wings. These wings are removable and can be worn separately as earring jackets. This transformation adds another layer to the design, turning one piece into multiple wearable elements.

This level of versatility reflects the intention behind the Nikki Angel brooch pendant—to create something interactive, not static.

Materials with Contrast and Depth

Each material in this piece plays a specific role. The sterling silver provides a strong, sculptural base. The 18k white gold introduces brightness and structure. The diamonds bring clarity and light. The Tahitian pearl adds depth, and the druzy quartz wings introduce texture.

Together, these elements create a composition that feels layered without becoming overwhelming. The contrast between polished surfaces and natural textures gives the piece its visual strength.

Designed by llyn strong

Every Nikki Angel piece is handcrafted by llyn strong, reflecting the studio’s long-standing approach to fine art jewelry. The design process focuses on form, balance, and material integrity, ensuring that each component works together cohesively.

The inclusion of a custom stand made of river rock and stone further emphasizes the sculptural nature of the piece. When not worn, the brooch pendant becomes a display object, allowing it to exist as both jewelry and art.

A Statement with Purpose

The Nikki Angel carries presence. It is not designed to blend in, but to stand as a focal point. Its scale, materials, and adaptability make it suitable for those who appreciate jewelry that goes beyond decoration.

It can be styled in multiple ways, depending on the occasion or personal preference. Whether worn as a brooch, pendant, or with the wings as earrings, the piece maintains its identity while offering flexibility.
