Questions About Antique African Necklace
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024
    What African necklaces are called depends on their style and who produced them, and since there are so many types of necklaces from Africa, there are numerous names for them. The Yoruba people produce beaded rope-like necklaces called odigbas, while the Masaai people craft colorful symbolic beaded necklaces known as enkarewas. The Zulu people make several types of necklaces, including the ntombi, a lace-like choker, and the amazipho, a necklace that features beads and claw-like elements. Find a range of African jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023
    To tell if a necklace is antique, first look for hallmarks that indicate the maker. If you locate them, you can consult trusted online resources to find out when the company or artisan was active. To qualify as an antique, a necklace must be at least 100 years old. The presence of materials that are no longer commonly used to produce jewelry, like bakelite, camphor glass, foil opals and paste, can be good indicators that a piece is an antique. Antique jewelry is also more likely to have European- and rose-cut gemstones than modern cuts like the brilliant round. Because it can be difficult to date jewelry on your own, you may wish to consult an expert, like a certified appraiser or experienced dealer, for assistance. On 1stDibs, shop a large collection of antique necklaces.
