Catch the light from every angle with PANDORA's new faceted drop Murano pendant, which comes in a dramatic black or soft pink color. The new pendant can be worn on a sterling silver PANDORA necklace or bracelet, such as the new sterling silver bangle. The matching earring pendants look stunning when paired on PANDORA's newest French wire posts that include a delicate clear cubic zirconia stone on the bottom of the post. Both of these sophisticated pieces are sure to add drama to any daytime or evening look.

Whereas spring brought pink cherry blossom pieces, summer showcases graceful black petals unfolding against milky-white Murano glass. This newest Murano charm features a small, red center in the middle of each of the four black blossoms with a 14k gold inner ring detail.

The same flower design is available as a sterling silver pavé charm with 94 hand-set black crystal and cubic zirconia stones. The new "Shimmering Beauty" pavé charm adds a classic and feminine look when styled with other black or white faceted Murano, pavé or sterling silver charms.

Continuing the black and white monochromatic theme, PANDORA also unveiled a heart-shaped ring, stud earrings and charm featuring clear cubic zirconia stones hand set on sterling silver with oxidized details. The new heart-shaped charm features 82 pavé-set clear cubic zirconia stones that surround two larger, heart-shaped cubic zirconia stones. On the ring, 65 pavé-set stones and one large, bevel-set, heart-shaped zirconia make the heart shape stand out from the simple and thin sterling silver band.

"Our newest black and white blossom charms, faceted Murano drops and heart-shaped pavé pieces provide dozens of opportunities for women to sport this summer's monochromatic trend while keeping true to their individual style" said Angel Ilagan, Vice President, Marketing, PANDORA North America.
