Diamond, Pearl and Antique Rope Necklaces

Diamond, pearl and other antique rope necklaces continue to be worn around the world and across cultures, thanks to their many styles and versatility.

While the term rope necklace may conjure up images of a classic gold link chain with a pattern like a rope, it can refer to any long necklace that drapes over the chest. This can include a string of pearls, a fabric rope with a pendant or a metal necklace made of interlocking links.

Rope necklaces are among the most ancient pieces of jewelry. Even before the Bronze Age, when twisted metal necklaces took hold, rope necklaces were fashioned out of natural materials. One found in Israel, dating back 120,000 years, had seashells painted with ocher on a flax string. Even after all these years, necklaces of any kind remain an irrefutable staple of any complete outfit.

Although new trends in jewelry are constantly emerging — everything from equestrian-inspired pieces to statement brooches have come into vogue in recent years — 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 artisans at Van Cleef Arpels, the celebrated French jewelry house that has earned the adoration of modern royals, found lots of inspiration in King Tut, whose burial chamber informed the look of Art Deco necklaces and other adornments of the era. David Webb also looked to history for the design of his necklaces, mining the ornamental styles of ancient Greece, Mesopotamia and Egypt.

Casual beads or a simple pendant can complete a relaxed ensemble, while multiple or heavy jeweled strands can give an outfit instant pizzazz. An antique or vintage rope necklace is the ultimate everyday accessory. Find yours today on 1stDibs.
