Los Angeles--A radiant Glenn Close, who received the Sherry Lansing Leadership award at The Hollywood Reporter's Annual Women in Entertainment Breakfast on Dec. 5, celebrated her achievement by donning the Mikimoto pearl pendant that was part of her award.

Titled the "Gateway," the award's brushed, natural-bronze twin planes both diffuse and reflect light thanks to the luminous 14-millimeter Mikimoto Golden South Sea cultured-pearl pendant that sways between its angled surfaces. The sculpture allows the pendant to be removed and worn, while the integrity of the art remains. Close took advantage of this dual functionality by wearing the pendant after winning the award.

Mikimoto, the originator of cultured pearls, commissioned the award. The pearl powerhouse tapped designer Adrienne Lee to create the important work of art.

The Sherry Lansing Leadership Award honors women who have been pioneers in the entertainment industry, with past recipients including Barbara Walters, Meryl Streep and Jodie Foster.

The award was presented at a breakfast that celebrated the 17th "Power 100: Women in Entertainment" issue for The Hollywood Reporter, which, like National Jeweler, is published by Nielsen Business Media and is part of The Nielsen Co., a global information and media company.
