Chanel Jewelry — The inspiration of Jewelry World

 

The Chanel name is synonymous with glamour and her influence in the field of costume jewelry, beyond just ropes of pearls, cannot be denied.

 

Chanel loved creating jewelry with artificial pearls. In the early year of Chanel, pearls had been one of the most precious stones, and the privilege of aristocracy. Coco Chanel favored multi-colored semi-precious stones, such as aquamarine, topaz and amethyst, but also crystal, which was worn with her evening dresses. Coco Chanel jewelry was often a mix of real and imitation stones.

 

Some popular motifs in Chanel jewelry: Crosses, Rosary-style necklaces, Military-themed pieces and Flowers.

Some materials in Chanel jewelry: Poured glass, Faux pearls (the more the better), Gold-tone chains and Antiqued gold settings.
