Matte Gold Picnic Basket Long Charm Necklace

The concept of the picnic basket dates back to 18th-century Europe, particularly in France and England, where aristocrats embraced outdoor leisure dining. The word picnic first appeared in French in 1692, and by the mid-1700s it referred to shared meals enjoyed outdoors. By the 19th century, with the rise of rail travel and public parks, purpose-built wicker baskets became symbols of refined social outings. This matte gold picnic basket necklace opens and dates to the 1980s to 1990s.
