Late Victorian Etruscan Revival Gold Book Chain Collar Necklace

The Story

This weighty Etruscan Revival Book Chain Collar Necklace (circa 1880) is a stunning combination of Victorian trends that only get better with age! Inspired by the archaeological discoveries of the Etruscan civilization, particularly in Italy, jewelers replicated the striking metalwork and elaborate techniques of the ancient Etruscans. This 15 karat yellow gold chain features a bold representation of the granulated beadwork of the Etruscans, and the flexible links of the chain are a decorative take on the flat, “book binding” links of the popular book chain of the time. This chain looks wonderful worn on its own as a collar necklace or paired with a pendant for a standout look!
