This is not embellishment.
It is movement shaped into form.
Signed Vendôme, this rare vintage sculptural collar features layered silver-tone wire strands arranged in graduated arcs that fan across the neckline. The design creates a dramatic architectural sweep — fluid, dimensional, and intentionally bold.
There are no stones.
No sparkle.
No distraction.
Only structure, repetition, and controlled volume.
This is mid-century modernism translated into wearable form.

Collector’s Note
While Vendôme is widely recognized for its elaborate rhinestone and beaded designs, its sculptural metal collars are far less common. Signed examples in strong condition represent a distinctive chapter within the house’s evolution — one rooted in modernist design language and architectural influence.
This is statement Vendôme.
Confident. Structural. Collectible.
