D'Orlan Jewelery Ltd. was founded in Toronto, Canada by Maurice Bradden in 1957. Bradden had previously been trained by French jeweler Marcel Boucher who established the Marcel Boucher & Cie Company in New York in 1937. After moving to Toronto, Mr. Bradden started his own business producing his own brands of jewelry as well as costume jewelry exclusively for the Boucher Company. Marcel Boucher died in 1966. In 1979 Marcel Boucher's business was sold to D'Orlan Industries of Toronto, Canada. The workmanship and detailing of jewelry produced from Boucher de D'Orlan molds is of high quality. In 1984, D'Orlan Jewelers Ltd., formed a partnership with Nina Ricci Companies of Paris, France (known worldwide in the fashion industry for French designs and French luxury goods, including perfumes). Together, the companies have developed a top-tier plating process that is highly regarded to include a 22-carat triple-plated finish over a pewter base metal that ensures color consistency. This process has also been incorporated into Nina Ricci jewelry. D'Orlan and Nina Ricci costume and precious jewelry is sold worldwide in Nina Ricci stores, department stores and high-end boutiques.

Vintage Pendant Necklaces

Whether you’re layering multiple jewelry pieces or opting for a single strand, vintage pendant necklaces are versatile accessories that can elevate your casual wear as easily as they can add a creative flourish to your formal attire.

The earliest jewelry was less about accessorizing than it was about wearers arming themselves with amulets. In Ancient Egypt, some amulets featured a loop so that they could be strung around one’s neck. While rubies have long been one of the few gemstones that can give diamonds a run for their money, members of some ancient civilizations valued the stones from the get-go, donning ruby pendants as well as other stones with the belief that these adornments would bring protection, healing powers or strength. Today, we still wear our charm bracelets and charm pendants around our necks for good luck.

Later, pendant necklaces, like most fine jewelry, were worn strictly by royalty or the upper class and conferred wealth and prestige. This changed over time, thankfully, as wearing jewelry became more widespread, a democratized means of personal expression.

During the 18th and 19th centuries, pendant necklaces evolved from their status as spiritual amulets, but the jewels still carried deep personal significance. Victorian pendants, in particular, were part of the “mourning jewelry” tradition. Wearers would embed their pendants with locks of hair from a deceased loved one as a way of grieving in the wake of a loss. In the case of cameo jewelry, some pendants were even decorated with miniature hand-carved portraits in a detailed raised relief. Today, portraiture is still a characteristic of many of the hand-carved pendant necklaces offered by Italian jewelry house Scala Gioielli.

Luxury fine jewelry brands such as Cartier, BVLGARI and David Yurman offer their own unique interpretations of the cherished accessory, embellishing platinum or gold pendant necklaces with diamonds, sapphires and other stones.

On 1stDibs, find an extraordinary range of vintage pendant necklaces and other necklaces today.
