The timeless beauty of Vintage necklaces

Necklaces from the art deco period have always been very popular and well-loved. This period ran from 1920 to the early 1940s. These necklaces were best known for their geometric shapes, had clean lines and often featured precious stones. Emerald, sapphire and diamond were commonly used. Necklaces from this era reflected the glamour of the jazz era and are additionally still popular in modern times.

During the romantic Victorian period, many beautiful and unique necklaces were made that are still worn today. Consequently, these necklaces were often detailed with filigree and garnet, which provided a subtle look. Collectors of vintage jewellery therefore love these necklaces as they reflect sentimental and elegant aesthetics.

During the 1960s, there was a new trend regarding necklaces, this was because there was a revolution in the fashion world that also affected the image about jewellery. Many people were looking for trendy necklaces with colourful stones, pendants with peace symbols and natural materials such as wood and leather. When people wore this jewellery it created a sense of freedom and expression, this was therefore characteristic through the 1960s.

Vintage necklaces come in all sorts of different colors, sizes, styles and designs. Thus, everyone can find something that suits their personal taste and style. Some iconic styles of vintage necklaces will be named below;

The beauty of craftsmanship

Craftsmanship is very important when it comes to vintage necklaces. In an era when handwork and craftsmanship were highly valued, jewellery was handmade by talented silversmiths. Necklaces from this period were therefore unique and each piece had its own character.

At Vintage Jewellery, we value the art of craftsmanship. Vintage necklaces, watches, earrings and medallions and more are therefore carefully chosen and selected for high quality. In our vintage collection, you can find necklaces that feature filigree work, enamel work, granulation and hand-set gemstones. Every necklace in our vintage collection tells a story. They are pieces made with love and craftsmanship that have remained beautiful through time.

Link Chains

A link chain consists of a series of connected links that together form a flexible and durable piece of jewelry. The links can vary in shape, size and material, but gold and silver are the most common choices. This type of chain can be simple and subtle, or complex and detailed, depending on its design and the period in which it was made.

Necklace and perfume in one

Do not be limited by the idea that a necklace consists of a series of links with a pendant attached, because then you have not yet seen our collection of antique jewellery. In earlier centuries, ladies liked to wear a perfume bottle around their neck. Since not every household was equipped with a shower and people still wanted to smell pleasant, perfume was widely used to mask other odours. So what could be more convenient than hanging a perfume bottle on your necklace? Plus, it looks particularly elegant and sophisticated, right down to the clasp!
