Tiny Gold Snail Shell Pendant
Located in Torquay, GB
This is a tiny little dainty periwinkle shell cast into solid gold and is perfect for all the sea and beach lovers in your life. It's so pretty to see such a delicate thing cast into our lovely silver and it makes such a smashing necklace. The textures of the shell are all visible in the casting which we have very carefully finished to protect the look and feel of the original shell. These tiny cowrie shells are quite common all along the coastline here in Devon and we found this absolute beauty of a miniature one here on the beach at Bantham in the South Hams in Devon. This is a place with a special feeling, this part of Devon is remote and wild and really, really beautiful. Its one of the most peaceful places I have ever been, but has lovely wild seas. Style this with our other shell necklaces or even our amazing crab claw...

Vintage Chain Necklaces

Vintage chain necklaces can make a statement on their own. What’s better than eye-catching chains of yellow gold or subtle silver to accessorize with everything from a designer evening dress to a comfortable sweatshirt?

Personal ornament in general has been around for eons. Ancient Egyptians designed jewelry and wore necklaces, rings and other accessories, and the excavation of King Tut’s burial chamber in 1922 had the greatest impact on Art Deco jewelry. When chain necklaces first took on some visibility in ancient civilizations, these items weren’t exactly democratic.

Chain necklaces were accessories that were relegated strictly to royal families and the upper class. In ancient times, pendant necklaces conferred prestige, for example. Wealthy Greeks and Romans opted for gold and silver necklaces that featured ornate pendants and semiprecious stones. By the Renaissance period, the pendant had replaced the brooch as the most worn type of jewelry. Pendant necklaces were commonplace, or pendants were simply strung on long gold chains.

Thankfully, jewelry became more accessible over time. And trends have come and gone, but the popularity of chain necklaces today owes in part to hip-hop culture. Big, chunky gold chains and diamond necklaces were the order of the day in publicity shoots and on album covers for rappers in the early 1980s onward, and a gold chain is still a mainstay in the ever-evolving and broadening hip-hop culture as we know it.

In our modern era, a number of chain-link necklaces are trending, worn alone or layered. The stylish links that have passed the test of time include oval links, paper-clip chains and more. The best way to discover your perfect fit is to zero in on a particular name and type of link.

While it was once key to accessorizing for a formal event, a vintage chain necklace now adds a fresh dynamic to any outfit at any time of day. Find yours on 1stDibs.
