Necklaces are one of the oldest forms of adornment, and vintage examples carry with them the elegance, innovation, and sentiment of their era. From delicate Victorian lockets to bold Art Deco pendants, our collection spans over a century of style. Whether short or long, simple or ornate, these pieces add instant history and visual interest to any look.

Length, clasp style, and chain condition are key considerations. Antique necklaces may feature original box clasps, barrel closures, or early spring rings—each charming, but worth checking for durability. Chains may be delicate or hand-fabricated, so it’s important to evaluate wear and patina. For gemstone or pendant necklaces, inspect settings and articulation, especially on longer or articulated pieces.

Georgian and Victorian necklaces often feature ornate repoussé work and lockets with sentimental imagery. Edwardian and Art Nouveau pieces introduce graceful scrollwork, enamel, and nature motifs. Art Deco necklaces lean bold and geometric, often using diamonds, onyx, and platinum. Mid-century examples might showcase large pendants or statement chains in gold and sterling.

Vintage necklaces are endlessly versatile—wear a locket layered with modern chains, or let an Art Deco pendant shine solo. Shorter styles pair beautifully with open collars and necklines, while longer strands or lavalieres can add elegance to formal attire. These pieces are perfect for layering and personalizing your look.
