Necklaces are always a popular choice for the holidays. Chokers have a tendency to come and go in fashion, but this year they’re very much in trend. They’re suitable for all age ranges, and the examples we have to show today have an elegance that goes beyond the ‘punk’ image often associated with the choker.

The uniquely refined elegance of this pearl choker makes it especially suited to women more advanced in age. A total of 204 pearls combine to create a lustre that is sure to look mesmerising in the glow of some Christmas lights this year…

2. Colour
Colourful gemstones are very fashionable this winter. Less commonly used gemstones such as agate and peridots are on the rise, and earthy colours like greens, blues, and browns are highly sought after.
Antique Victorian Pendant
Tourmalines and peridots feature on this piece of Victorian jewellery. Its twisting and curving shapes make for a unique piece that would complete anyone’s jewellery box. Weighing 11.06 grams, the quality of this necklace can be felt in its weight around your neck.
Before the height of Art Nouveau’s reign in the early 20th century, items like this give us a clear picture of the elements that led to the immense popularity of the nature-oriented style. The arcs and sweeping lines of this necklace are certainly compelling.
