Multi-Strand Necklace Turquoises Iolites Bakelite

Bewitchingly beautiful, Turquoise gemstones have been prized for millennia for their distinctive blue-green color. Their association with elements of nature and ancient cultures lends this necklace a mystical aura and a touch of the exotic. Each turquoise is unique, revealing swirling patterns and variations in hue that make this necklace truly one-of-a-kind. Iolites, often nicknamed "water sapphires", add a dimension of sophistication and elegance to this jewel. Their subtle blue-violet hue evokes the depths of the oceans, creating a harmonious contrast with the turquoise. Iolites are also considered stones of inner vision, bringing clarity and wisdom to the wearer. Bakelites, meanwhile, are a retro material of great historical value.

Vintage multistrand necklaces add glamour to any outfit and are easy to accessorize with.

One of the oldest known forms of jewelry is the necklace; evidence includes shell beads dating back at least 142,000 years. Multistrand necklaces appeared early in this history, with archaeologists identifying examples from ancient Mesopotamia.

One popular style of multistrand necklace is the torsade necklace, with “torsade” coming from the French word for twist or cable. These necklaces are made by twisting several strands of beads, pearls or other material together and securing them with a clasp. The hippie and counterculture movements of the 1960s saw costume-jewelry designers celebrating self-expression through colorful multistrand necklaces and no shortage of beads, while Ciner helped popularize the torsade necklace in the 1980s with strands of glass beads often held by animal-head clasps.

The bayadère necklace, also known as the rope necklace, is similar but has only a few strands of pearls or beads that are twisted or braided together. It was particularly popular at the turn of the 20th century, including as a gift for bridesmaids. Sometimes the beads or pearls match; other times, they are multicolored, with accents such as a single tassel or pendant. Another version is the choker-style dog-collar necklace, a multistrand necklace usually between 16 to 18 inches long.

In all of these variations, a multistrand necklace offers a touch of sophistication for your look, from everyday wear to the red carpet. Explore 1stDibs for multistrand necklaces in a range of lengths, styles and materials.
