About the Item

This pearl, prasiolite, sapphire, cat's eye chrysoberyl, and silver necklace-called a sautoir in French-continues a cherished tradition. Centuries ago sautoirs incorporated royal insignia into celebrations. Pearls were especially honored. Coco Chanel modernized the look, while flappers relaxed the style. "Beautiful Cats Eyes" offers 2 features worthy of a permanent collection. First, the name of this sautoir references the gems used to create the tassel. The gem is a cat's eye chrysoberyl. Jewelry designers cherish gems exhibiting a series of tiny parallel inclusions that intensely reflect light in a way that resembles a cat’s eye. Just as each cat is an original, so too is each cat's eye gem. "Beautiful Cats Eyes" has 13 strands of cat's eye chrysoberyl in the tassel. Second, if you love scarves, sautoirs are a jewelry equivalent of scarves. Sautoirs, like scarves, offer flexible styling options. Photo 4 demonstrates a less traditional, and exciting, way of wearing a sautoir. Look at other sautoirs on the White Orchid Studio page to see other ways for wearing sautoirs. PRODUCT Details Sterling silver. White Orchid Studio’s floral bead cap. Gems: pearl, prasiolite, sapphire, and cat's eye chrysoberyl. Approximate length: 45” Gems in "Beautiful Cats Eyes" softly pop against primary colors (navy or denim, black, dark gray, green) and create a lush, soothing pallet against soft pastels (white with a blue glow, light peach, green or blue). I don't discourage shopping, but before buying new clothes, walk through your closet and lay "Beautiful Cats Eyes" against your existing wardrobe. I'm betting you will see your wardrobe come alive.
