Mixed Metal Fringe Bib Choker Necklace with Wire Collar

1980s–2000s · Unknown — likely artisan-made or imported fashion jewelry

Estimated value: $10–$45

Bib and fringe chokers surged in popularity during the 1980s and 1990s as part of the bohemian, tribal, and New Age fashion movements, when artisan and imported ethnic-inspired jewelry became mainstream status symbols. These pieces were often handcrafted or produced by small workshops and import houses catering to a market hungry for bold, statement-making alternatives to traditional jewelry.

Value is most affected by whether it is handmade/artisan versus mass-produced, the base metal composition (brass, copper, or silver-plated), overall condition, and maker identity if any markings are present.
