An opera length of amethyst beads with an oval cabochon amethyst and silver clasp.

Long necklaces are called 'opera-length' because they became popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries when opera was a fashionable social event. Women would wear these necklaces to the opera as part of their formal evening attire. The length, typically 26 to 36 inches, allowed the necklaces to complement the elegant, flowing dresses worn at such events, offering a sophisticated and dramatic look suitable for the grandeur of the opera.
