Featured What is the name of this Egyptian Revival necklace shape/style.

It is a bead choker with a very long tasseled pendant on it. Any ideas what to call this
shape?

Thanks for looking.

 

Peacock tail. Although I'd not call it Egyptian Revival.

 

Hi,
Looks very Indian to me.

Hadn't thought of that, thanks, I suppose you could call it peacock tail.
It was bought in Mexico City in the early 70s. The designer was inspired by ancient Egypt, that's why I called it Egyptian Revival. But I agree, it is not the usual Egyptian collar or bib necklace.

 

It generally gets called a bib/statement/runway aka big honkin' necklace.

 

Now, why didn't I think of that.

 

Agreed.

 

Probably because of that teardrop shape. And after all, the best known peacock species originated in India.
All I can say is, the designer said she was inspired by ancient Egypt, and who am I to say she was wrong.

 

I'll bet it looks spectacular on a black t-shirt.

 

It does.
My mother used to wear it on a black evening dress, that was stunning.

 

I would call it beautiful!

 

"dangles" keyword for the lessinformed customer.

Grrr, don't ever type after eatting cotton candy ice cream. Too sticky!

 

beautiful AJ!

lol TDC

 

And I'd call that "YUMMY"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
