18 KT/750% Gold Necklaces from Italy

Handmade Italian Gold Necklace from Eredi Jovon

Have you ever thought why when we talk about gold we talk about Made inItaly? The answer is easy: almost 45 percent of the EU's export of gold is made from Italy. The Belpaese is not only a leader in this market but a leader in design, and gold districts such as Vicenza, Arezzo, Venice, Valenza, and Naples are world famous for gold craftsmanship and the quality of their jewelry production.

When you create, as we have since 1934, coral jewelry and especially cameos you need a piece of jewelry to support them. Here is where Italian necklaces become the inseparable companion to Eredi Jovon's jewelry: the cameo will thus be visible on your lady's chest on an evening at teather or will be flaunted as a clasp on a coral necklace as a refined centerpiece to be displayed at a business meeting.

The necklaces we offer are not only in 18 kt gold to match cameos mounted in the same material or in 925% silver to complement your cameo with antique or burnished silver mounts. In fact, we can offer you an elegant coral torchon with a cameo in the center or a simple pearl necklace that, thanks to Eredi Jovon's system, makes your cameo, at the same time, a brooch, a pendant and a necklace centerpiece to make your jewelry a trusted friend of your outfits that will keep you company every day of the year.

Our Collection of Italian Gold Necklace

Eredi Jovon offers a large collection of Gold Necklaces.

1 - let's start with the simple 18 kt gold necklace created to hang your Italian Good luck charm: the so called Cornicello, the Nazar Eye, your cameo pendant or a great red coral pendant). The models are very varied and in the detailed description of the products you will find their strength index so that you can choose the necklace most suitable for your amulet, pendant or charm.

2- Mounted Coral and Turquoise Necklaces with 18 kt gold clasp and inserts are the specialty of Eredi Jovon and are still assembled by Gabriella who always creates new and original designs.

3- Pearl necklaces, on the other hand, are the perfect companion for our brooches thanks to the patented system that makes our cameos both brooch and pendant and clasp for your necklace.

4- Let's not forget antique necklaces and our unique original pieces that are our calling card because they express rarity and class.

Gold Chain and Necklaces

Our gold necklaces can be distinguished by 3 basic characters:

1- Necklaces for men or women

2- Link necklaces or necklaces with various designs

3- Necklaces with fixed size or variable size (adjustable)

4- Necklaces to put a pendant on or necklaces that can stand alone.

5- Necklaces that are more or less durable: with their durability index in the product description.

The following are the most popular models:

a- The classic Venetian (box chain) - for men or women - various lengths, good durability. Ideal for your gold cornet and mostly used for Italian good luck charms

b- The Venetian bead or cord perfect to match cameos or coral- for women, various lengths, good durability.

c- The new Venetian (called pop-corn) very similar to the traditional model but with a more modern style. A women's necklace, various lengths, good durability, ideal for a pendant.

d- The groumette necklace. An evergreen pattern, ideal for hanging a pendant, various lengths, for women and good strength.

e- let's move on to the round or square link necklaces: excellent strength, ideal for hanging a cornet, hand with horn sign charm or simply your cameo. The model is available in various lengths.

f- Here we come to the purely men's models: the "Figaro" necklace and the "curb" or "cuban" model. These are necklaces as I said suggested for men in lengths ranging from 50 to 60 centimeters (20 or 24 inches). You can hang your gold cornicello on them for a three hundred and sixty degree Italian model. In this way you'll create the perfect Italian Horn Necklace

These are definitely special designs and necklaces that you will pass on to future generations because as any good Italian knows, "gold takes no stain" and it's always like having cash in your pocket, especially in hard times.

g-now let's move on to one of our best sells: the adjustable, adjustable necklace. It is the model that solves all women's problems: in fact, you can decide the ideal size by going to change the length of the necklace thanks to the included adapter.

Gold Pendant Necklace

Our selection of necklaces would be useless without the charms that go with them. Let's look together at our pendants that will go with your necklaces.

1- Let's start with our iconic gold cornicello in its coral variants, with or without enamels to end with the Nazar Eye and the most symbolic and iconic amulets of the Italian tradition.

2- How not to mention our Gold cameo necklaces and the most iconic of them: “Grace of Venice” the cameo that has made thousands of women fall in love and made Eredi Jovon the most famous store in the world for the craftsmanship of its cameos.

3 - Coral is a jewel of the sea and its Cremesi variant is called “Italy's red gold.” The pendants made of “corallium rubrum” that we mount in 18-karat gold will look good on the gold necklaces we have designed for you and will also go well with the charms that represent our beautiful Venice: the iconic gondola, the Carnival masks, the Marcian Lion and all the symbols that have marked the history of the “Serenissima” over the years.

4-we also have micromosaic pendants, cameos with carving and glass pastes, with brilliants, and our wonderful collection of vintage and antique pendants.

5 - New - we have created a line of pendants with geometric shapes that are reminiscent of the “Venetian Gothic Floral” of the Doge's Palace with the ever-present flower: a stylized representation of a four-leaf clover and at the same time a four-lobed cross. This symbol appears repeatedly in the architecture of the palace and its decorations (also visible from the outside). This architectural and decorative element has been taken up by Eredi Jovon in the creation of jewelry and art objects inspired by Venetian history.

Gold Necklace with Gemstone

Not only lucky charms: Nazar Eye, Horse Shoe, Quaterfoil, Ladybugs and horn necklace are not the only pendant available at Eredi Jovon store.

Gemstones are another product that our Family has been offering for three generations. The color stones in this case are not the usual ones you can find in any jewelry store but have their own character and history. Each necklace, each piece of art for sale in our Venice workshop is unique because it carries with it a story of love and dedication to art.In fact, our best pieces are the vintage jewelry that we find by searching the craft markets and unearth as we unearth a hidden gemstone covered by the dust and patina of time just waiting to be found. 

The materials we use are mainly are brilliant, rubies, emeralds, aquamarines, pearls and sapphires of the highest quality certified and from traceable sources. Certification is issued by an internationally recognized gemological institute and that they can be traced back to their origin, thus ensuring that they have been ethically and sustainably mined and traded.
