An inscribed tablet of 18k gold holds ghosts of a desert landscape, where sinuous curves on the surface tell of sidewinding rattlesnakes who once sought respite from the sun-warmed sand. Inspired by the topography of designer Holly Tupper’s family ranch in South Texas, this pendant is made luminous with bezel and prong-set pink sapphires. Within its confines is a porcelain disc scented with one of the house’s perfumes — a constant companion and reminder of love.

When not being used as a pomander for fragrance, this locket can be a secret hold-all. Precious keepsakes can be held close to one’s heart.
