Beyoncé took the stage in Chicago over the weekend during her Cowboy Carter Tour, debuting a bespoke piece of jewelry designed exclusively for the occasion. Evoking the elements of her Queen Bee persona and the Americana influences of her latest album, the multi-hyphenate wore a custom bolo necklace created by Brilliant Earth.
The one-of-a-kind bolo tie centers around a 14.46-carat natural black diamond, set beneath a crown-wearing bee motif. The design is accented with 1,046 diamonds — totaling 5.7 carats — set in Brilliant Earth’s signature recycled 18-karat yellow gold. While not available for purchase, the piece carries an estimated value of $95,000.
