Antique and Designer Fashion Jewelry Chain Necklaces
Chain necklaces can be slender or ostentatious. Some have more prominent, chunkier links for dramatic flair. Others have colorful pendants, either small or boldly large. A wardrobe essential, a designer fashion chain necklace — or a vintage chain necklace from your collection of fine jewelry — lends elegance to any outfit or ensemble.
Even after all these years, necklaces are still an irrefutable staple of any complete outfit. In ancient times, pendant necklaces worn by royalty and nobles conferred wealth and prestige. Today’s enthusiasts of costume jewelry, which is designed to accessorize with current fashions and typically made with inexpensive materials, can agree that a vintage costume jewelry necklace of any kind is a must-have item.
New trends in jewelry are constantly emerging. There are conversations around specific categories during the fall season and in the spring, and a look for every mood. But the glamour and beauty of the past continue to inform modern styles and designs. Designers of costume jewelry necklaces draw on Art Deco, Victorian and other movements to create appealing adornments that vary widely in form.
Layer a chain necklace with other pieces or wear it alone — it always makes a statement. The length of the necklace can vary, from short chain necklaces that resemble chokers to stylish longer ones. Find dazzling vintage costume chain necklaces today on 1stDibs.
