Vintage Gold Necklaces For Sale on 1stDibs
There is a broad range of vintage gold necklaces for sale on 1stDibs. Frequently made of Gold, Yellow Gold and 18k Gold, these items were constructed with great care. Our inventory has long been popular, and it includes earlier versions that date to the 20th Century and newer variations that were made as recently as the 20th Century. Modern and Contemporary are consistently popular styles when it comes to vintage gold necklaces. There have been many well-made iterations of these items over the years, but those made by Chanel, Van Cleef
Arpels and Tiffany
Co. are often thought to be among the most beautiful. Any of these pieces can lend versatility to your look, but Diamond versions, from our inventory of 341, are particularly popular. A selection of round cut, bead and brilliant cut can be found today on these pages. If you’re browsing the variety of vintage gold necklaces for sale, you’ll find that many are available today for women, but there are still pieces to choose from for men.
How Much are Vintage Gold Necklaces?
Prices for vintage gold necklaces can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, these accessories begin at $76 and can go as high as $191,837, while vintage gold necklaces, on average, fetch $2,099.
Finding the Right Necklaces for You
We are fortunate to know much of the world’s long and dazzling history of necklaces, as this type of jewelry was so treasured that it was frequently buried with its owners. Today, Van Cleef necklaces, Tiffany necklaces and Cartier necklaces are some of the most popularly searched designer necklaces on 1stDibs.
Lapis lazuli beads adorned necklaces unearthed from the royal graves at the ancient Iraqi civilization of Sumer, while the excavation of King Tut’s burial chamber revealed a sense of style that led to a frenzy of Art Deco designs, with artisans of the 1920s seeking to emulate the elegant work crafted by Ancient Egypt’s goldsmiths and jewelry makers.
In ancient times, pendant necklaces worn by royalty and nobles conferred wealth and prestige. Today, wearing jewelry is about personal expression: Luxury diamond necklaces exude confidence and can symbolize the celebratory nature of a deep romantic relationship, while paper-clip chain-link necklaces designed by the likes of goldsmith Faye Kim are firmly planted in the past as well as the present. Kim works exclusively with eco-friendly gold, and these fashionable, fun accessories owe to the design of 19th-century watch fobs.
For some, necklaces are thought of as being a solely feminine piece, but this widely loved accessory has been gender-neutral for eons. In fact, just as women rarely took to wearing a single necklace during the Renaissance, men of the era layered chains and valuable pendants atop their bejeweled clothing. In modern times, the free-spirited hippie and counterculture movements of the 1960s saw costume-jewelry designers celebrating self-expression through colorful multistrand necklaces and no shortage of beads, which were worn by anyone and everyone.
Even after all of these years, the necklace remains an irrefutable staple of any complete outfit. Although new trends in jewelry are constantly emerging, the glamour and beauty of the past continue to inform modern styles and designs. In a way, the cyclical history of the necklace differs little from its familiar looped form: The celebrated French jewelry house Van Cleef Arpels found much inspiration in King Tut, and, now, their Alhambra collection is a go-to for modern royals. Vintage David Webb necklaces — whose work landed him on the cover of Vogue in 1950, two years after opening his Manhattan shop — were likely inspired by the ornamental styles of ancient Greece, Mesopotamia and Egypt.
On 1stDibs, browse top designers like Dior, Chanel and Bulgari, or shop by your favorite style, from eye-catching choker necklaces to understated links to pearl necklaces and more.
Questions About Vintage Gold Necklaces
- What is my gold necklace worth?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024How much your gold necklace is worth will depend on a few factors. Gold has value on its own as scrap metal. Usually, scrap metal pricing depends on the weight of gold and the type of alloy, and prices vary over time. Some gold necklaces may be worth more than the going rate due to their age, maker, style, type and condition. As a result, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable jeweler examine your necklace and tell you how much it may be worth before selling it to a scrap dealer. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of gold necklaces.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024To tell if a necklace is vintage, one approach is to conduct research using trusted online resources. Start by looking for hallmarks and then use the maker's mark to identify the brand that produced it. From there, you can look at online catalogues and reference guides to determine approximately when your jewelry was made. A necklace is vintage if it is between 20 and 99 years old. Another option is to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable jeweler help you with the dating process. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of vintage necklaces.
- What makes a necklace vintage?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023What makes a necklace vintage is its age. Any necklace made at least 20 to 80 years ago is vintage. Necklaces produced a century ago or more are antiques. A vintage-inspired or vintage-style necklace is one manufactured during the past 20 years but inspired by older jewelry. Find a wide variety of vintage necklaces on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023What a gold heart necklace means is open to interpretation. Many people associate gold with wealth and success, while a heart pendant is often equated with romance. Together, these symbols may represent success in love or the preciousness of a relationship. It's also possible to not assign any deeper meaning to the necklace and to wear one simply because you like how it looks. Shop a large assortment of gold heart necklaces on 1stDibs.
- Are Napier necklaces real gold?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, most Napier necklaces are gold-plated brass. Gold-plated brass is often favored for being more budget-friendly and durable, but it is not hypoallergenic and should be avoided by those who have sensitive skin. Browse a selection of Napier jewelry on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The gold content of a vintage watch will depend on the make and model of the watch. Gold is a popular choice for luxury watches due to its finish and yellow-golden hue that can be achieved through gold or gold-plated bands. Shop a wide selection of expertly vetted vintage watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Clasp design on vintage necklaces vary significantly, so there’s no uniform way to open and close a clasp. Research the specific type of necklace to find resources on the style of clasp. On 1stDibs, you'll find a collection of vintage necklaces from some of the world's top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To determine whether a pearl necklace is modern or vintage, first look for signs of wear, such as blunted edges on the prongs. The pearls will likely have dull spots where they came into contact with skin. The clasp can clue you in, too. Lobster clasps appeared in the 1970s, while early 20th century clasps were generally safety-pin style or C-clasps. Modern necklaces typically have a spring-loaded clasp. Shop a selection of vintage pearl jewelry on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024To tell if a rhinestone necklace is vintage, look on the clasp or the back of the pendant for a maker's mark. By snapping a photo of the mark and performing a reverse image search or entering a description of the marking into an online search engine, you can often identify the maker of a piece. Then, conduct further research to learn when the company or artisan was active and producing necklaces similar to yours. It is vintage if you estimate that your necklace is between 20 and 99 years old. Older pieces are antiques, while newer ones are contemporary. For additional assistance with dating your rhinestone necklace, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of vintage necklaces.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, Vivienne Westwood necklaces are mostly made of sterling silver and brass along with other imitation stones and metals. Most gold-looking pieces in her collection are actually brass. Even though the metals are not real gold, it’s still important to protect and care for your Vivienne Westwood jewelry as it may tarnish and lose its luster over time. You’ll find a large collection of Vivienne Westwood from many of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024At home, you can tell if a necklace is real gold by using a magnet. Put the magnet near the gold and see if it sticks. If it does, your piece is either a base metal plated in gold or an entirely different metal. While there are additional ways to test jewelry at home, these methods may cause discoloration or damage your necklace. As a result, you may wish to consult a certified appraiser or experienced jeweler if you need assistance with material identification. Shop a wide range of gold necklaces on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023Yes, gold necklaces can look good on guys. Men can be stylish in any type of jewelry. The key is to find pieces that appeal to you and reflect your sense of fashion. Many male celebrities have worn gold necklaces, including Jay-Z, Brad Pitt, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jason Momoa and Robert Downey, Jr. Explore a wide range of gold necklaces on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023Yes, men still wear gold necklaces. Gold is a timeless precious metal, and chains made from the material are classic favorites for men's jewelry. Justin Theroux, Brad Pitt, Jay-Z, Drake and Timothée Chalamet are just some of the famous men who have regularly sported gold necklaces. Explore a wide variety of gold necklaces on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024Yes, some Louis Vuitton necklaces are real gold. The French luxury fashion house produces its necklaces out of 18-karat yellow gold, white gold and rose gold. In addition, Louis Vuitton uses other precious metals like titanium and platinum in some pieces. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of Louis Vuitton necklaces.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023Yes, you can wear pearl earrings with a gold necklace if you wish. Pearls can complement yellow, white and rose gold equally well. You can create a more cohesive look by choosing pearl earrings that feature gold settings in the same tone as your necklace. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of jewelry.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Vintage Chanel jewelry always has a date stamp and logo located somewhere on the piece that you can use for authentication. Everything on the date stamp should be easy to read, and the Chanel logo should look immaculate. Fake logos are often hard to read and have mistakes in the font. All the details should be exquisite, and the necklace should feel substantial. If it feels light and cheap, it’s probably a fake. Shop a collection of authentic vintage Chanel necklaces from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024To tell if your vintage glasses are gold, look on the nose bridge and the temples for a purity mark. Makers often stamped their solid gold pieces with “12K,” “10K,” “14K” and other markings to identify their gold eyewear. You can research all of these markings using trusted online resources. Should you locate a "GF" mark, it is likely that your glasses are gold-filled rather than solid gold. This means that the frames are predominantly a less expensive metal but do have a thin layer of genuine gold alloy as a finish. Another mark that indicates your glasses contain some gold is "RGF." The mark stands for “rolled gold filled.” Glasses bearing this mark feature a gold-plated finish that is thinner than what's found on traditional gold-filled frames. For assistance identifying your eyeglass frame material, consult a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer. Explore a selection of vintage glasses on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 20, 2024To tell if a vintage Tiffany necklace is real, look closely at the links and clasp. Due to their expert craftsmanship, Tiffany Co. links appear continuous and have no visible seams or solder marks. The clasp should also be sturdy and free of solder or glue marks. Hallmarks can also help you authenticate your piece. Most Tiffany Co. jewelry will say the maker's full time or “T&Co.” Items marked simply with “Tiffany” are usually not authentic. Comparing the markings on your jewelry to hallmark images found on trusted online resources can help you identify counterfeits. A certified appraiser or experienced dealer can also be of assistance. On 1stDibs, explore a variety of vintage Tiffany Co. necklaces.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024How much a 14K gold necklace is worth varies. Like other gold alloys, 14-karat gold has scrap value as a precious metal. The price per ounce of gold varies over time, and the thickness and length of your necklace will determine how much you can expect to be paid for it.
