The unique and revolutionary design of the tubogas necklaces
As its name suggests, the Tubogas necklace imitates gas pipes. This piece of jewelry is directly inspired by the flexible tubing used by construction professionals: its structure forms a flexible band, composed of rounded spirals or chevrons, skillfully assembled without welding. Tubogas necklaces appeared in the 1920s and experienced a significant boom a few years later, between 1930 and 1940. These original pieces, reminiscent of the sinuous silhouette of a snake, caught the eye of jewelers at that time, who created versions in various precious metals, such as yellow gold, rose gold, white gold, or even plated brass.
Thanks to its exceptional flexibility, this accessory is very comfortable to wear and adapts to all body types. It also pairs easily with other jewelry, such as long necklaces or earrings in similar tones, but can also be worn alone, naturally illuminating the décolletage. Its highly flexible nature combined with a luxurious material makes it a particularly versatile accessory, suitable for both casual and more formal occasions. Furthermore, some Tubogas necklaces are set with precious stones to add an extra touch of color and whimsy.
Many high jewelry houses have designed and created tubogas necklaces, including Boucheron , Cartier , and Bulgari . Discover Castafiore's selection.
