(SOLD) Antique Gold Sautoir with Orange Blossoms
Sumptuous, Sentimental.
We are mad for sautoirs and sentimental jewels. Here, we have a full length sautoir — more than 5 feet long — graced with orange blossoms for good luck and happiness. We count 96 orange blossoms — one on each side of the 48 plaques!
The chain is a rich gold, in an apricot-y hue, with the orange blossoms in a shade of gold with just a whisper of green to it. Stunning.
The sautoir is “closed”, slipping on over the head, and is luxuriously long — we are able to wrap up to three times. Use the large hanging spring ring to suspend a favorite pendant or to clasp back on to the chain when wrapped, keeping the lengths from sliding.
A treasure to be worn and loved.
Marked with French weevil and owl marks.
18k gold.
Dimensions and weight:
● 60.5 inches long
● 15.5 mm long x 7.8 mm wide on the plaques
● 50.6 grams
Period: Victorian
*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present. On very close inspection, we noticed a few dings to the oval loops (normal wear, difficult to discern, and chain is beautiful and sound).
