80 cm sautoir necklaceGold / silver plated
The KRYSTAL necklace is a sautoir with an architectural design. Its pendant overlays a small brushed-finish disc, matte and satin-like, with three concentric rings in slightly hammered metal that nest together without quite touching. The entire piece measures 7.2 cm high by 5.3 cm wide and hangs from a long snake chain of 80 cm, extended by a 7.5 cm adjustment chain. Two styles are available. The Silver version plays on harmony, full of cool reflections. The Gold version is actually two-tone: one or two gold-toned rings slip between the silver elements for a warm contrast. The metal is gold or silver plated depending on the model. Worn over a little black dress or a thin sweater, KRYSTAL draws a long vertical line that slims the silhouette, and its pendant moves gently with every step. An easy-to-wear piece of jewelry that instantly dresses up a simple outfit.

Materials
Plated metal, brushed and hammered finish
KRYSTAL is made of gold or silver-plated metal depending on the style: a base metal covered with a thin layer of precious metal, which gives it its luster. Two surface treatments complement each other on the pendant. The brushing of the disc creates tiny streaks that diffuse light and give it a satin finish. The hammering of the rings forms small, irregular facets that reflect lively glints.
The snake chain is composed of small interlocking segments: it appears smooth and continuous, slides well over clothing, and maintains an even drape, which is perfect for a sautoir.

The KRYSTAL design
The KRYSTAL pendant is based on a simple composition: a point and circles. The disc, placed at the top, acts as a visual anchor; the three rings are layered just below, like ripples on the surface of water.
The rings are not perfectly smooth: their hammering gives them an artisanal, almost handmade appearance. On the two-tone version, gold accents are slipped between the silver rings, warming up the whole piece. It is this alternation of materials and shades that makes the piece so easy to pair, from office attire to evening wear.
Wearing the KRYSTAL sautoir
1
Choose the height using the 7.5 cm adjustment chain, anywhere between the top and middle of your bust.
2
Put the necklace on over your head or open the clasp depending on your preference.
3
Wear it over a solid color, ideally dark, to make the interplay of the rings stand out.
4
Store it with the chain laid flat or coiled loosely so as not to kink the snake links.

Good to know: in our photos, the "Gold" model is not entirely gold: it combines gold-toned rings with silver-toned elements. Choose this one if you enjoy mixing metals.
Style tip: the two-tone version is the most versatile, as it matches both your gold and silver jewelry. With a little black spaghetti-strap dress, the KRYSTAL sautoir is enough on its own.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the dimensions of the KRYSTAL sautoir?
The pendant measures 7.2 cm high by 5.3 cm wide, including the disc and rings. The snake chain is 80 cm long, plus an additional 7.5 cm adjustment chain: you can wear the necklace between approximately 80 and 87.5 cm. At this length, the pendant hits the middle of the bust, or even a bit lower depending on your build. This is the typical length for a sautoir, designed to structure an outfit and visually elongate the silhouette. A true long necklace format.
What is the difference between the Silver and Gold models?
The Silver model is entirely silver-toned: the brushed disc, hammered rings, and snake chain all share the same cool, luminous shade. The Gold model is actually two-tone: in our photos, one or two gold-toned rings are mixed with the silver-toned elements, creating a warmer contrast. The shape of the pendant and the length are identical. The two-tone version is slightly more expensive, and has the advantage of coordinating equally well with gold and silver jewelry. The choice mainly depends on your habits.
What is the necklace made of?
The KRYSTAL necklace is made of gold or silver-plated metal, depending on the model. A piece of plated jewelry is formed from a base metal covered in a thin layer of precious metal, which provides its luster. The pendant combines two finishes: a brushed finish, matte and satin-like, on the disc, and a hammered finish on the rings. This blend of textures gives the jewelry depth. Like all plated jewelry, it requires avoiding water, perspiration, and cosmetics. Simple care ensures its durability.
Does the necklace contain any crystals?
Despite its name, the KRYSTAL necklace contains no crystals visible in our photos. Its shine comes from the worked metal: the hammering of the rings creates a multitude of tiny facets that reflect light, much like a cut gemstone, while the brushed disc provides a softer, satiny shine. If you are looking for a necklace with real crystals, our boutique offers other models, including faceted crystal pendants for a sautoir look.
How should I wear an 80 cm sautoir?
A sautoir of this length is best worn over solid-colored clothing: a shift dress, a thin sweater, a buttoned shirt, or a jumpsuit. The pendant will then hit the middle of the bust and create a vertical line that slims the silhouette. It also pairs very well with an open jacket, with the necklace tucked between the lapels. Avoid wearing it with other long necklaces, which might get tangled with it. Discreet earrings in the same metal tone will perfectly complete the ensemble.
How do I care for my KRYSTAL sautoir?
After wearing, wipe the pendant and chain with a soft, dry cloth to remove fingerprints and cosmetic residue. Do not use water, abrasive products, or polishing cream, which would wear away the plating and potentially erase the brushed finish of the disc. Store the necklace separately, in a pouch or box large enough to ensure the snake chain is not folded at sharp angles. These simple steps will preserve its shine and the flexibility of the chain.
Is KRYSTAL a good gift idea?
Yes, it is one of the easiest necklaces to give in our boutique. Its graphic design appeals to all ages, and its long length makes it comfortable to wear, with no clasp to manipulate daily if you prefer simply slipping it over your head. The two-tone version is particularly practical if you are unsure whether the recipient prefers gold or silver. For a birthday, Christmas, Mother's Day, or as a thank-you, it is an elegant and safe choice.
