Necklace gold Greek/Roman

The gold Greek/Roman necklace is a gold-colored crescent-shaped choker with an openwork meander pattern along the top edge. It is designed for women dressing up as a Greek goddess or Roman woman for Carnival or a themed party. The wide decorative piece sits just below your neck, exactly where a one-shoulder toga opens.

What the gold Greek/Roman necklace looks like

• The front plate is crescent-shaped and features an openwork row of square spirals, the classic meander motif.
• Below the spirals is a second border with open triangles, giving the choker an airy appearance.
• On both sides is a spiral-twisted cord with gold-colored end caps.
• At the back of your neck, the necklace fastens with a lobster clasp and a short extension chain.
• The necklace is made of 70% zinc and 30% steel.
• The necklace is gold-colored but made of imitation gold, so it contains no real precious metal.
• The necklace is designed for women.

What makes this meander necklace Greek rather than Egyptian?

The difference lies in the motif. The meander, also known as the Greek key, is a continuous line that turns back at right angles, familiar from ancient Greek vases and temple borders. The Romans adopted this border in their mosaics, so the motif suits both looks. An Egyptian choker is usually wider and consists of rows of colored beads or panels. Choose this necklace if you want a sleek, entirely gold-colored line that sits neatly against a white or light-colored toga.

Makeup and jewelry to complement the gold-colored choker

A gold laurel wreath in your hair echoes the shine of the choker and completes your goddess look. Earrings in the same color and a bracelet around your upper arm keep all the jewelry in a single color palette. For makeup, a warm, bronze eyeshadow with a thin line of eyeliner works well, so your face does not get lost against the shiny metal. It is best to skip a second necklace, as the crescent already fills the neckline.
