About the Item
Amazing and Exotic Chinese necklace or sautoir crafted from jadeite and agate, tied around the neck with a silk cord. This is an ancestral-inspired piece, made with carefully carved and polished jade and agate stones. The pendant is composed of two main elements: a circular agate disc and a lower figure carved from jadeite with openwork details, depicting mythological motifs or sacred animals typical of oriental art.
The lower jade carving displays meticulous craftsmanship, with curved shapes that evoke dynamism and spirituality. It depicts two koi fish, symbols in Chinese culture of fortune, success, and prosperity. The legend of the Dragon Fish tells of how koi fish are able to swim against the current in the Yellow River and thus transform into dragons. The use of jade, a sacred stone in Chinese culture, highlights its connection with protection, wisdom, and vital energy. The pendant is secured with an elegant knot made of dark silk cord.
Acquired in France from a private collection

Vintage Frances Necklace Beige and bronze stone with antique bronze Cesarée
By Cesare Paciotti
Located in VALLADOLID, ES
Amazing necklace by the French house Césarée, made in the 1990s. The piece is composed of multiple chains of beige jasper natural stone beads cascading from a rigid antique bronze ring. At the lower ends of these chains, there is a polygonal metal bead with ethnic decorations. The focal point is a large central stone medallion, adorned with a triangular bronze decoration of small circles with embossed patterns. The combination of the stone's hue with the warmth of the patinated metal creates a visually rich contrast, making it an ideal accessory for any outfit.
The House of Césarée, Originality and Ethnic Taste
Césarée was founded in 1980 in Paris by jewelry designer Laurence Coupelon. Her constantly evolving creations range from pure ethnic inspiration to distinctive haute couture jewelry, combining natural materials with bronzed or silver-plated metals. Her originality and distinctive style have made her jewelry house not only a household name but also a highly recognizable style, establishing it as a benchmark for ethnic jewelry in the European fashion world.
Since its inception, her unique style has captivated fashion editors around the world: Vogue, L'Officiel, Le Figaro Madame, Air France Madame, Elle, Marie-Claire, Be, Grazia, Gala, Citizen K., Cosmopolitan, etc. Her jewelry has also been featured in films and television programs.
Her style and jewelry have often been the result of close collaboration with leading fashion designers: Nino Cerruti, Michel Klein, Agnès B, Cacharel, Kenzo, and Sonia Rykiel. Her creations are also chosen by numerous French and international artists, including Emmanuelle Béart, Claudia Schiffer, Françoise Xénakis, Agnès Varda, Marianne James, Marisa Bérenson, Jodie Foster, Danièle Thompson, Mouna Ayoub...
