Rings of Power: Bold Torques are Making a Fine Jewellery Comeback
This powerful necklace with ancient roots is reclaiming its place in contemporary jewellery collections. Its sleek yet rigid silhouette speaks to confident women who want to assert a quiet power. Plus, it is the perfect setting for a chic diamond drop.
Torque necklaces are experiencing a resurgence on the catwalk and the red carpet, and it is easy to see why. This style of necklace, which can be defined as a solid or open-ended ring worn around the neck, exudes power, and it has a timeless quality to it that makes it hard to pin down whether it feels charmingly retro or thoroughly futuristic.
