Introducing a complete one-of-a-kind, unique and 1950s crystal and faux pearl rope sautoir necklace
This piece reimagines a 1950s brooch as a long sautoir, evoking the free-spirited glamour of the Y S L Marrakech years and the layered, bohemian styling of Loulou de la Falaise. The central cluster features faux pearls capped in gilt filigree, mingled with Aurora Borealis crystals that shimmer with iridescence—a detail emblematic of mid-century jewellery.
The brooch is from a rich brown braided cord and finished with twin tassels, the necklace carries the easy opulence of the Y S L desert-inspired collections of the 70s. Its length allows it to be worn knotted, looped, or left to drape in a languid line, recalling the improvisational style of Catherine Baba and the artisanal spirit of North African adornment. This is a piece that speaks to both mid-century design and the liberated glamour of 1970s haute bohemianism.
