Books like The necklace by Daniela Mascetti


This comprehensive volume traces the evolution of necklaces from antiquity—Egyptian broad collars, Celtic torques, Greek and Roman chains—to the ornamental pendants of the Italian Renaissance and 17th‑century pearl strands. It then explores the nineteenth‑century rise of the necklace as an essential fashion item, noting the use of exotic materials such as hummingbird feathers and tiger claws, and highlights the creative innovations of designers like René Lalique in the curvilinear Art Nouveau style. The final section examines twentieth‑century shifts, covering turn‑of‑the‑century diamond chokers, the graceful sautoirs of the 1920s, and the exuberant designs of the 1960s, while noting revivals of ancient motifs.
