This elegant sautoir by Max Mara, dating from the late 20th century, marries refined sophistication with artisanal flair. Strung on a fine metal chain, the long necklace features polished tigers-eye beads, faceted quartz accents, and an array of other semi-precious stones, each chosen for its unique hue and subtle shimmer. The interplay of warm golden browns, translucent crystal, and muted earth tones gives the piece a versatile appeal, allowing it to drape beautifully over both simple blouses and evening attire. With its generous length, the sautoir can be worn long or doubled for a layered look, making it a truly adaptable accessory in any wardrobe.

Founded in Italy in 1951 by Achille Maramotti, Max Mara quickly established itself as a leader in luxury ready-to-wear, renowned for its impeccable tailoring and understated elegance. While best known for its iconic coats and clean-lined silhouettes, the House has also embraced accessories that reflect its design ethos, combining quality materials with timeless style. Max Mara’s jewellery collections, like this sautoir, exemplify the brand’s commitment to craftsmanship and versatility, offering pieces that seamlessly bridge day-to-day sophistication and evening refinement.
