Vintage Necklaces

Each vintage necklace in our curated collection reveals distinctive craftsmanship through unique link designs and clasp mechanisms. These estate treasures, spanning Art Deco's bold geometrics to Victorian delicate filigree, undergo meticulous authentication and restoration, preserving their timeless allure for the next chapter in their storied journey.

The Art and History of Vintage Necklaces

Estate necklaces span distinctive design eras, each with unique collector-valued characteristics. Early 20th century pieces feature platinum settings with old European cut diamonds, while Art Deco designs showcase geometric patterns with specialized S-hook clasps and decorative safety chains. Mid-century necklaces reflect post-war optimism through dimensional forms and specialized techniques like invisible settings.

Authentication markers include hand-fabricated links, period-specific chain patterns (from delicate knife-edge Victorian chains to machine-made Retro links), and specialized clasp mechanisms that evolved from simple C-hooks to box clasps with figure-eight safety catches.
