Brutalist Necklace Modernist 1970s Gold Tone Pendant Roget Vintage

Description

View Brutalist Necklace Modernist 1970s Gold Tone Pendant Roget Vintage with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. These pieces were created in limited production runs and are now increasingly sought after for their distinctive design language and relatively short production window. Strong brutalist modernist design with sculptural presence. This signed Roget necklace is a striking example of 1970s modernist design, where bold geometry and textured surfaces come together in a distinctly sculptural composition. The pendant features a layered architectural form with a textured diamond-shaped element set above an open circular cutout, creating depth and visual contrast that reflects the era’s fascination with wearable art. Suspended below, three articulated fringe-style dangles introduce movement and rhythm, each ending in a textured square that echoes the pendant’s geometric language. The combination of polished and matte-like textured finishes enhances the dimensional quality, catching light from different angles and reinforcing its bold, gallery-inspired presence. The chain itself is composed of elongated bar links connected by rounded joints, adding a subtle industrial edge that aligns perfectly with brutalist and modernist jewelry trends of the time. At 20 inches, it sits at an ideal wearable length, allowing the pendant to anchor the neckline without feeling overly long or short. Roget jewelry was produced beginning in the early 1970s by M.G.M. Incorporated in Oakland, New Jersey, originally associated with cosmetic and fragrance branding. These pieces were created in limited production runs and are now increasingly sought after for their distinctive design language and relatively short production window. The combination of sculptural styling, textured finishes, and bold geometric motifs makes Roget pieces especially appealing to collectors of 1970s modernist and brutalist jewelry.
