Gold Leaf Collar Necklace

Costume jewelry first emerged in the 18th century, when artisans used glass and gilt metals to create fashionable designs. Its influence grew in the 20th century as icons like Coco Chanel paired statement pieces with couture, while Hollywood stars in the 1930s and 1940s made it glamorous. The 1970s and 1980s defined the bold, expressive look, inspired by disco, pop culture, and power dressing. This vintage gold leaf collar necklace is from the 1980s to 1990s.

Dimensions: length 17 inches
