Gold and Faux Pearl Wire Collar Necklace

Costume jewelry has a rich history, emerging in the 18th century as an accessible alternative to fine jewelry. It rose to prominence in the 20th century, championed by fashion icons like Coco Chanel, who embraced the artful mix of high and low style. The 1970s and 1980s marked a golden era for costume pieces, with bold, expressive designs echoing the influence of pop culture, disco, and power dressing. This gold-tone and faux pearl collar necklace dates to the late 1960s to 1970s, capturing the elegance and drama of the era.

Dimensions: 16 inches (adjustable with opening)
