What is a sautoir? The history of the creation.
A sautoir is a long piece of jewelry with chains, with or without a pendant or tassel. There are many options of a sautoir - with large beads made of natural stones, fragile pearls, with a mix of different types of chains and metal decorative elements. The main criterion for jewelry belonging to a sautoir is its length - at least 80 cm. The origin of the name "sautoir" is considered to be French (porter en sautoir - "carry on the back" or "carry over the shoulder"). The history of the sautoir dates back to the 1920s - an era of ease, chic and brilliance, when sophisticated French women added the desired extravagance and sophistication to the image with the help of long chains with tassels, combining the sautoir with a bold neckline, a deep cut on the back and stylish and outrageous at the time care.
Among the well-known supporters of this jewelry from the world of fashion is definitely the legendary Coco Chanel, thanks to which this accessory became a cult. Sautoirs have not left the fashion collections of Chanel for decades.
Today, sautoirs, having experienced fashion transformations, are again at the peak of relevance, when lightness and a certain incompleteness of the image are in trend. Long chain necklaces around the neck, which can be styled in different ways, look very casual, stylish and attractive.
Sautoir is able not only to emphasize the elegance and excellent taste of his chosen one, but also to aptly complement the image with a bright and stylish accent.
