Textural. Wonderfully dramatic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis marvelous vintage designer collar necklace was created by the renowned American costume jewellery house Monet and dates to the 1980s, a decade known for bold statement jewellery and rich, globally inspired design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe necklace is crafted in satin gold-plated metal, giving it that beautiful soft antique glow rather than a bright mirror polish. The design features multiple layered chain strands forming a structured collar that sits closely around the neck, creating a luxurious and dramatic silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuspended along the lower edge is a captivating fringe of textured golden dangle charms, alternating with round faux coral bead drops. The combination creates a rhythmic pattern of warm gold and vibrant coral tones, producing movement and visual richness as the charms sway gently when worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aesthetic draws strong inspiration from Indian and Mughal jewellery traditions, particularly the ornate collar necklaces and fringe designs seen in historical royal adornments. This gives the piece a wonderfully ethnic, exotic, almost temple-jewellery feel, while still remaining unmistakably 1980s designer couture costume jewellery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe necklace is finished with an adjustable chain extension, allowing it to be worn snugly as a true choker or slightly looser as a short collar necklace.
