About the Item

Chanel multi chain pearl, emerald and ruby handmade glass collar. Designed by Gripoix mid 1950s to look as though each strand is casually wrapped around the neck, a part of the Chanel idiom of an instictive effortless elegance. Unsigned 16-19" lengths, 2.5" width Many necklaces from the period become available in these wonderfully crude metal tones, not with the hypergilding used today. This heightens and reinforces the baroque aspect of the jewel as prescribed by Chanel's rich aesthetic.

Massive Faux Pearl and Emerald Sautoir Necklace, Chanel
By Chanel
Located in Riverdale, NY
Pearl and Emeralds. This elegant and classic combination takes on a different effect when supersized to this proportion. Chanel sticks to her established idioms and uses 3 strands of off-shaped and baroque pearls and beads for this massive sautoir interpreted for her by Gripoix. Each pearl and emerald pate de verre bead is hand formed and wire wrapped for strength. Some of the flawed emerald beads have been fluted before cooling and some have been left round. The nonchalance of this is genius. These beads are quite heavy and also very striking as are the earrings. UNSIGNED 32" to 38" lengths. Earrings: 3" Foto: Chanel crafting jewelry, 1957 image by Mark West...
