Vintage Réminiscence Paris — La Bohème

Founded in 1970 in Juan-les-Pins on the French Riviera by Zoé Coste and Nino Amaddeo, Réminiscence became known for high-end costume jewelry with a distinctive bohemian, exotic “Grand Bazaar” aesthetic. Inspired by travel and world cultures, its designs combine unexpected materials, elaborate ornamentation and influences ranging from India and the Middle East to Art Nouveau and Art Deco.

This vintage Réminiscence necklace is an exceptional example of that aesthetic. Mixed metals, pearls, decorative beads and cascading tassels surround an ornate functional hinged box pendant that opens. Richly detailed, substantial and unmistakably French—a collector-worthy piece of Réminiscence design.
