It’s that one statement piece that is seen being worn by the celebrities and the fashion icons multiple times – that is, the T-bar necklace. What makes it unique is its toggle clasp – a classic T-shaped bar inserted through a ring.
T-bar's unique design is an adaptation of the jewellery design of the 1800s. To be precise, the design draws heavily from the Albert chain, a pocket watch chain worn during the Victorian era. At that time the jewellery had a very practical purpose: it was to keep the clock anchored to men’s waistcoats. Originally the T shape was used as a fastening piece, but the modern designers have transformed it into a hallmark style. Apart from seeing it as a piece of jewellery, some equate the design’s horizontal portion to stability and the vertical one to an element of growth and progress.
