These Pasta Necklaces Are Just Like Your Kid's DIY Version, but a Way Chicer Mother's Day Gift

A new jewelry collection is allowing people to keep the thing they love close to them at all times: pasta. Delicacies describes itself as a jewelry brand "for epicureans," and its Al Dente collection celebrates pasta in its many shapes and sizes.

Have your little ones ever gifted you a crafty macaroni necklace for Mother's Day? Or have you ever made one yourself? Well, these necklaces remind us of those nostalgic DIY necklaces a lot . . . except they come in sterling silver and 14K gold. What's more, each pasta shape represents a different quality. For example, penne rigate promotes focus and creativity, while orecchiette represents wisdom and comfort. How so? Who knows, but it's cute!

Because the necklaces come in such high-quality metals, they are on the expensive side. Many of the sterling silver necklaces are priced at $85, and the 14K yellow gold necklaces exceed $500. There's even a diamond farfalle necklace priced at $980, for really serious foodies, we presume. Shop the surprisingly high-end pasta necklaces ahead.
