Lariat Necklaces GalleryWe looked up in the dictionary to find our what the word lariat means, and here is what we found: Etymology: American Spanish la reata the lasso, from Spanish la the + American Spanish reata lasso, from Spanish reatar to tie again, from re- + atar to tie. Def.: a long light rope (as of hemp or leather) used with a running noose to catch livestock or with or without the noose to tether grazing animals. Well, that idea inspired the jewelry artists and was adapted to make beautiful necklaces that make use of the same concept for necklaces without clasps.
