I revisited Guy de Maupassant's short story The Necklace just for fun the other day. I read it for the first time in my ninth grade English class, and I enjoyed it, even if I didn't completely understand the message de Maupassant was trying to communicate. As a junior in college now, I see the meaning of the story so clearly that it almost knocked me off my feet at how beautifully de Maupassant is able to craft simple yet astonishingly profound stories. Needless to say, The Necklace inspired me to post some gorgeous vintage inspired finds. What is most intriguing about The Necklace, is that Maupassant doesn't describe Mathilde's diamond necklace in full detail. It is described simply as a diamond necklace. Well, these aren't diamond necklaces but they sure are dazzling. Enjoy!
This necklace was made entirely by hand with antique materials, 19th century French cotton lace, and Victorian Beads. Visit CoutureLab for Pricing.
