Lariat Necklace

Lariat necklaces have an open-end design, with a chain (ending with a gemstone, metallic element or other ornamental pendant) falling low on the chest. These necklaces are perfect for layering, as they often come in dainty silhouettes and measure between 30 to 50 inches.
The name of these types of necklaces comes from the Spanish ‘la reata’, which translates as “the rope.” They are generally crafted from metallic chains, beads, pearls and even leather.
