People have worn jewellery ever since time began including necklaces. Originally the word jewellery itself was anglicised from an old French word “joule” (jewel) but it does also date further back in history and is linked to the Latin word plaything. We have a range of heart necklaces on offer at Love2Have including this beautiful silver heart with black enamel detail and a row of cubic zirconia stones between the heart and the chain. We think this necklace would make a great wedding necklace as it is available with matching earrings.

Normally jewellery is made from only precious metals but in the past designers have utilised many other materials including wood, rock and even cloth however silver is still the most common. Silver necklaces for ladies are the most popular choice on our website. They make excellent gifts at affordable prices and to top it off they are unavailable anywhere on our high streets. The above example is a nice contemporary fashion necklace with a pebble style texture.

Throughout time necklaces became more and more elaborate as crafts men developed their skills. The plain and simple evolved into differing styles for men and women. Necklaces for men are a must have fashion accessory for the modern day urban male. We sell urban style mens jewellery at Love2Have. This is a silver necklace that really is very different from anything we have seen before. Quite beautiful to look at and very alternative with its textured oxidised finish on a medium weight matching chain.

As necklaces were adapted into newer designs there meaning also changed for some people. Some wore them in battle for good luck whilst others used them to warn off evil spirits. Chain necklaces such as the one pictured above are purely worn for decoration these days. It is made from solid sterling silver.

A good modern day example of a potent symbol used in jewellery these days would that of the crucifix. Other examples that are used in religion are amulets which again are hung on a chain around the neck. Finally a heart shaped necklace known as a locket can also be looked upon as a symbol of love. We feature many necklaces for women on our site such as this contemporary sterling silver cross.

There are three types of necklaces available to buy from our site. The traditional necklace is a single threaded beaded piece or a chain. Mens necklaces are usually just a chain for example. A pendant is another type of necklace that hangs from a chain or something like a leather thong which is an alternative option to consider. Finally a choker is a wider piece of jewellery and sits tighter around the upper part of the neck. Above is an example of a mens pendant.

The most unusual necklaces in the history of mankind must be those that were worn by the Pa Dong Long Neck tribe from Burma. Children were made to wear hoops from an early age around there necks. As the child grew more rings were added until when reaching adult age as many as 28 rings were worn in one go. Our necklaces at love2have are unusual also including this mens necklace pictured here.

The rings around the neck give the illusion that the neck is getting longer and stretching. In fact what is really happening is the collar bones are being weighed down over time, forcing them to lower hence more neck length. Here we have a necklace from our raven collection. With its collection of individual pieces it has the look of modern day tribal jewellery.

The women who wear the rings do get to remove them but only on their wedding night. It is hard to imagine the discomfort in this procedure but much neck washing is required. They are then slipped back around the neck after the wedding night is over to remain for the rest of their lives. This is partly due to the neck muscles not being strong enough to support their heads any more. Silver personalised necklaces and name necklaces.

It was not only in Burma that the practice of hoop ring around the neck was practised but also in Africa too. The women here were called giraffe women due to the elongated necks they now had. Necklaces for women are a worldwide fashion which is why we take great care in choosing our products to feature on our site such as this silver necklace for women pictured above.

The hoops were worn around not just there necks but also there arms and legs. The brass rings would symbolise her devotion to her husband. It was the responsibility of the husband to provide the rings which also reflected his wealth with more he provided.

The rings were only removed after his death as the rings symbolised a bond which was now broken. The practice of wearing brass rings in this way is now dying out as the modern tribes prefer to wear the more usual type of necklaces.
