Poppy Lissiman, an ethical accessory designer who's based out of Australia, added to her selection with a gold-plated pride necklace.
The necklace states "PRIDE" boldly, with each letter marked by different colors of rhinestones to make it reminiscent of a rainbow. A thin golden chain holds the statement pendant, which allows it to fall just under where one's collar bones might hit. As the necklace is relatively small, it can be worn with virtually any ensemble.
Currently, the necklace is available on Poppy Lissiman's web store for $135 USD, however consumers are also able to make four interest-free payments at $33.75 if they don't want to shell out that much cash at once. In order to benefit disadvantaged members of the LGBTQ community, 10% of each sale will go towards the Rainbow International Fund.
