Necklace embracing the Quotation Mark.While not exactly quotation marks, the earliest indicators for quoted speech can be traced back to the ancient Greeks. They used a symbol called the “diple” (a chevron shape) in the margin to draw attention to noteworthy passages, not necessarily quotations. During the Middle Ages and Renaissance, the focus shifted from marginal notations to incorporating marks within the text itself. Early iterations involved double commas or forward slashes at the beginning and end of quotations. By the 18th century, the double quotation mark became increasingly favored, likely due to the invention of metal type sets that made them easier to use in printing. While the double quotation mark became dominant in many Western countries, variations emerged elsewhere. For example, some languages like French use guillemets (« ») or angle brackets (‹ ›) for quotations.Secondary Material: NoneMetal Type: Sterling Silver 925, HypoallergenicDimensions: Chain Length: 17.7 Inches (45 Centimeter), with adjustable sizes, Lobster claspQuotation Size: Length 0.79 x Height 0.67 Inches ( Length 2 x Height 1.7 Centimeters)See size guide here
