Of exceptional rarity and refinement, this vintage choker necklace by Van Cleef & Arpels is an outstanding example of the Maison’s artistry during the Retro period, and quite possibly earlier. The piece is fully serial-numbered on the clasp, indicating confirmed authenticity and likely origin from the Van Cleef & Arpels New York workshop—an attribution of particular significance.
Executed in 18 karat yellow gold, the necklace is designed as a series of finely detailed foliate motifs, each leaf superbly chased and rendered with remarkable naturalism. The choker gently contours the neck and drapes elegantly along the collarbone, achieving a silhouette both sculptural and feminine. The central foliate elements are embellished with highly graded diamonds of exceptional brilliance and clarity, further enhancing the piece's sophistication.
The chain is composed of four intertwining gold wire cables, woven into a flexible structure of masterful engineering and design. Entirely original and preserved in remarkable condition for its age, this jewel is not only a striking adornment but a true piece of history—a unique creation that Van Cleef & Arpels will never produce again.
