Bulgari Coin 'Monete' Necklace in 18k Yellow Gold, circa 1980
Located in New York, NY
Q: Just how alluring can a 2,000-year-old coin look? Bulgari asked and answered this question with their Monete collection, which debuted in the 1960s and continues to this day. A: When combined with a bold, contemporary setting, the women of Rome and the world will find it most alluring. This iconic Bulgari Monete Ancient Coin Vintage Collar Necklace features five antique Roman coins bezel-set in 18K yellow gold. The style of this stately collar neckclace is worthy of a Roman emperor, with each coin setting soldered to four links of curb chain. The weight of the necklace merits noting at just over five ounces (145.27 grams). Wearing this piece, once can feel the weight of history. Which is rather exhilarating when you think about it. Each coin of the collection is treasured in the idiom of rare and precious gems. It is such a novel recontextualization, that Bulgari incorporates moments of Rome’s Imperial glory into these one-of-a-kind designs, and once again triumphantly captures the timeless sophistication of the Eternal City. The term “ancient” when it comes to coins is defined using Rome as the marker. Ancient defined as anything before the fall of Rome...

Antique and Vintage Necklaces for Sale: Shop Van Cleef Necklaces, Pearl Necklaces and Tiffany Necklaces on 1stDibs

We are fortunate to know much of the world’s long and dazzling history of necklaces, as this type of jewelry was so treasured that it was frequently buried with its owners. Today, Van Cleef necklaces, Tiffany necklaces and Cartier necklaces are some of the most popularly searched designer necklaces on 1stDibs.

Lapis lazuli beads adorned necklaces unearthed from the royal graves at the ancient Iraqi civilization of Sumer, while the excavation of King Tut’s burial chamber revealed a sense of style that led to a frenzy of Art Deco designs, with artisans of the 1920s seeking to emulate the elegant work crafted by Ancient Egypt’s goldsmiths and jewelry makers. 

In ancient times, pendant necklaces worn by royalty and nobles conferred wealth and prestige. Today, wearing jewelry is about personal expression: Luxury diamond necklaces exude confidence and can symbolize the celebratory nature of a deep romantic relationship, while paper-clip chain-link necklaces designed by the likes of goldsmith Faye Kim are firmly planted in the past as well as the present. Kim works exclusively with eco-friendly gold, and these fashionable, fun accessories owe to the design of 19th-century watch fobs. 

For some, necklaces are thought of as being a solely feminine piece, but this widely loved accessory has been gender-neutral for eons. In fact, just as women rarely took to wearing a single necklace during the Renaissance, men of the era layered chains and valuable pendants atop their bejeweled clothing. In modern times, the free-spirited hippie and counterculture movements of the 1960s saw costume-jewelry designers celebrating self-expression through colorful multistrand necklaces and no shortage of beads, which were worn by anyone and everyone. 

Even after all of these years, the necklace remains an irrefutable staple of any complete outfit. Although new trends in jewelry are constantly emerging, the glamour and beauty of the past continue to inform modern styles and designs. In a way, the cyclical history of the necklace differs little from its familiar looped form: The celebrated French jewelry house Van Cleef & Arpels found much inspiration in King Tut, and, now, their Alhambra collection is a go-to for modern royals. Vintage David Webb necklaces — whose work landed him on the cover of Vogue in 1950, two years after opening his Manhattan shop — were likely inspired by the ornamental styles of ancient Greece, Mesopotamia and Egypt

On 1stDibs, browse top designers like Dior, Chanel and Bulgari, or shop by your favorite style, from eye-catching choker necklaces to understated links to pearl necklaces and more.
