18K Yellow Gold Rigid Necklace (42 cm/16.5")

The Sculptural Elegance of the 18K Yellow Gold Torque Necklace

The gold torque is an exceptional piece of jewelry that has transcended jewelry history with an unparalleled strength of style. Our model reinterprets this classic in the form of an absolutely modern rigid choker. Its sunny yellow color, obtained from an 18k gold alloy (750 gold), offers a striking mirror-like shine that instantly enhances the skin.

Unlike classic flexible necklaces, this 18k rigid gold necklace has a unique sculptural hold. It pairs wonderfully with a low-cut evening dress or slips under the collar of a linen shirt for a chic and sober style. Discover our matching 18k gold bangle bracelet to complete your outfit.

The Pure and Reversible Design of this Gold Neck Cuff

With its 2 mm wire thickness and 42 cm length, this collar necklace gracefully follows the natural curves of your neck. Designed as a rigid gold wire necklace, it benefits from a subtle shape memory that allows it to gently spread for easy donning, then return to its original round shape.

This rigid choker necklace offers the immense advantage of being fully reversible, giving you two styles in one piece of jewelry. Wear it with the opening and its two 5 mm gold beads at the front for an assertive, sculptural, and antique-inspired style. Turn it with the opening concealed at the nape of the neck to reveal a smooth, pure, perfectly continuous, and minimalist gold curve at the front. This rigid women's necklace adapts to all your daily style desires.

Workshop Transparency: A Spectacular Volume in Tube Gold

True to our Direct Workshop commitment, we offer full transparency on the manufacturing of our precious jewelry. A rigid collar of this scale (2 mm thick for 42 cm long) made of solid gold would weigh more than 40 grams and would be extremely heavy on the neck, while also being prohibitively expensive.

To offer you this spectacular volume while ensuring exceptional wearing comfort, our 18k rigid gold necklace is designed using the "precious tube" technique. Weighing approximately 10.00 grams, this rigid choker offers an incredible visual presence while remaining ideally light and flexible for everyday wear.
