The Story
The strand of small, overlapping discs on this necklace draws on Türkiye's long-running tradition of coin-adorned jewelry, in which coins and coin-like discs were linked into chains or stitched onto garments and headpieces. Historically, this kind of piece did double duty as adornment and as a portable, wearable form of savings, with the number and density of coins signaling a family's means.
Coin jewelry in Anatolia has long carried special weight in bridal and dowry contexts, where a bride might be dressed in coin necklaces or coin-trimmed headpieces as part of the wedding presentation. That association with celebration and personal wealth is part of why coin motifs remain a recognizable, meaningful form in Turkish jewelry-making today.
This lariat translates that coin-cluster language into a lighter, more fluid contemporary shape: rather than a rigid coin bib, the discs are strung so they move independently, letting the historic motif read as movement and shimmer rather than as literal currency.
A piece like this starts with dozens of small metal discs, each stamped or cut individually and then finished with a hand-applied texture so no two catch the light in quite the same way. The discs are linked disc-by-disc into rows using jump rings, built up first into the collar section and then into the denser, tiered cascade at the center, before the whole chain is silver-plated to give it its finished shine.

Questions & Answers
Is this necklace solid silver?

How long is the necklace?
It measures 28" in total length with an additional 6" drop at the center front.
Can I wear this necklace in water or with perfume?
It's best to avoid water, perfume, and other chemicals, since they can wear down the silver plating over time.
Why do the discs look slightly different from each other?

Store it flat, away from other jewelry, to keep the disc rows from tangling or catching on each other.
