Necklaces<\/a> have been an integral part of jewelry since the time of ancient civilizations when mankind started to wear bone jewelries<\/a> at the very beginning. Necklaces are believed to be as old as 40,000 years, during the\u00a0Stone Age. The oldest necklaces were made of purely natural materials. Before weaving and the invention of string, durable vines or pieces of animal\u00a0muscle left over from hunts were tied together and adorned with shells, bones or teeth or colorful skins of human prey animals, bird feathers, corals, carved pieces of wood, colorful seeds or stones or naturally occurring gems, or other beautiful or artful natural elements found nearby.<\/p>\n

Slowly the addition of cloth and\u00a0metal greatly expanded the range of jewelry available to humans. Once the\u00a0Bronze Age\u00a0began, humans discovered how to melt metal and cast it into shapes. And then chains and long necklaces\u00a0became possible with\u00a0bronze,\u00a0copper,\u00a0silver,\u00a0gold,\u00a0electrum,\u00a0platinum\u00a0and a variety of other metals. The next great era started when gem cutting\u00a0and\u00a0glass blowing\u00a0allowed\u00a0faceted\u00a0and highly polished gemstones and beautiful art glass to be added to pieces. This paved the way for beautiful long necklaces.<\/p>\n

In the modern era, a variety of new mediums are available for necklaces that earlier generations would not have ever thought of. Today, Craft Montaz has a collection of most modern long necklaces from the handicraft artisans across the world.<\/p>\n
