Welcome to
MEW’s Jewels Vintage Necklace Gallery. Choose from a wide variety of
individual necklaces and pendants as well as demi-parures, parures
and grand parures. Parures are sets which are produced by the same
designer or manufacturer to wear together. A demi is two pieces such
as a necklace and matching earrings. A parure usually includes 3-4
pieces such as a necklace, bracelet, earrings and brooch. A grand
parure has it all! Necklace, bracelet, earrings, brooch and ring.
There are many demi-parures of “married” pieces. These parures
may not have been manufactured by the same company, but the 2 or
more pieces marry well or go together well. If there is a necklace
which I believe marries well with a jewelry listing in another
category you will find a cross reference link included in the
listing. I wouldn’t steer you wrong! MEW is the queen of vintage
jewelry match making! If you are re-directed to another piece it
will match very close in metal color, stone color, proportion and
general design. Also remember when marrying pieces, most
people view you from an arms-length away. No one is scrutinizing
your accessories as close as you think. The whole picture is what
the observer finds pleasing.
MEW's Jewelry necklace listings
range from casual to business to evening. Find tassels, rhinestones,
textured metal, smooth polished metal, designer signatures, plastic,
wood, glass, dangles, charms, links and beaded styles. Come back
often as I add new listings frequently and may find a matching piece
to complete a parure and add it to a listing. That is especially
true of the collectible Sarah Coventry parures for which there are
many. Don’t hesitate to contact me
if there is a particular SARAH COV piece you’re looking for. If you
don’t see quite what you were looking for here in the vintage
category, be sure to check out MEW's Jewels necklaces in the
Original Artisan Polymer Jewelry By MEW category!
