Our collection of these items for sale includes 11 vintage editions and 4 modern creations to choose from as well.

Finding an appealing hinged choker — no matter the origin — is easy, but Tiffany & Co. and Zolotas each produced a popular version that is worth a look. A hinged choker of any era or style can lend versatility to your look, but a version featuring Diamond, from our inventory of 4, is particularly popular. Today, if you’re looking for a round cut version of this piece and are unable to find the perfect match, our selection also includes baguette cut alternatives. When shopping for a hinged choker, you’ll find that there are less available pieces for unisex or men today than there are for women.

How Much is a Hinged Choker?

Prices for a hinged choker can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, these accessories begin at $142 and can go as high as $37,777, while this accessory, on average, fetches $4,075.

Finding the Right Choker-necklaces for You

Vintage choker necklaces are elegant, alluring and stylish. Cameos, pearls, diamonds and other stones can decorate these necklaces, which come in single or multiple strands. Whether it is a statement piece or a delicate chain, these short necklaces always stand out and turn heads.

The history of the choker can be traced back thousands of years, with Sumerian examples discovered from 2600–2500 B.C. They endured as a popular form of adornment through the centuries, and during the French Revolution they took on a symbolic significance. Women wore ribbons around their throats to mark the passing of those killed by the guillotine. Soon, the plain ribbons were adorned with small cameos and other ornamentation.

European choker necklaces gained a salacious reputation in the 19th century when prostitutes were associated with black ribbons tied around the neck, such as the model in Édouard Manet’s Olympia (1863). Queen Alexandra, Princess of Wales, reversed the trend in the late 19th century by wearing a large pearl and diamond choker, reputedly to hide a scar.

Fashioned from gold, pearls and other precious stones and metals, chokers continued to be worn into the 20th century, alternately statements of wealth and rebellion. They experienced periods of revival in the 1920s, ’40s, ’70s and ’90s for both men and women.

Vintage chokers make a statement with an unmistakable air of femininity. On 1stDibs, find an alluring collection of vintage chokers today, including gold, sapphire and emerald chokers.
