Elegance and class embody the Jackie Kennedy Onassis we love and remember. Even today, years after Camelot and her death in 1994, Jackie Kennedy is remembered and revered. In 1996 at the Sotheby’s auction of Jackie Kennedy Onassis’s personal belongings, a Jackie Kennedy pearl faux necklace with a crystal clasp, designed by Kenneth Jay Lane, sold for over $200,000.

Jackie Kennedy was one of Kenneth Jay Lane’s most photographed clients. Today the Jackie Kennedy Collection features Jackie Kennedy pearl earrings with a gold twist clasp; a Jackie Kennedy pearl necklace; and the Jackie Kennedy pearl three-strand necklace with an art deco clasp. But the collection features more than inspired Jackie Kennedy pearls. There are ruby, emerald and sapphire necklaces; crystal brooches; and a satin gold crystal star brooch worn by Jackie Kennedy that sold at auction for $19,550.
So however you pay tribute, with Jackie Kennedy pearls or a Jackie Kennedy brooch, Kenneth Jay Lane’s Jackie Kennedy collection is the place to start.
