Such a luxurious sautoir, embellished with graduated pearls within each link — in a winged shape recalling the propelling seeds of the maple tree. Imagine this strand of gold and luminous pearls gracing the swan’s neck of a Belle Époque beauty, circa 1890. Wear this sautoir decadently long and luxurious or wrapped twice or three times upon the décolletage. Add a special period pendant or locket to the swivel dog clip as desired. Marvelous draped with other pearls or gold chains.
