This Arts and Crafts sautoir necklace originates from England around 1930 and carries the attribution of George Hunt. The piece consists of a hand-linked sterling silver chain interspersed with rose quartz and rock crystal cabochon beads, incorporating wirework scroll motifs and terminating in a silver tassel pendant. The necklace shows polished silver metalwork alongside soft pink rose quartz and clear rock crystal stones. Specific visible details include round cabochon stones secured in wire bezels, a delicate openwork scroll connector above the central drop, and fine chain links. The necklace measures 92 cm wide with an 11.5 cm drop, giving it a long, sweeping silhouette. It serves as a wearable decorative accessory that can be worn for formal or everyday dressing.

A sautoir is an elongated necklace, typically terminating in a tassel or pendant, which gained significant popularity during the Arts and Crafts movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Designers emphasised hand-craftsmanship, visible joinery, and natural motifs as a reaction against industrial mass production.

Jewellery from this period commonly features hand-hammered sterling silver, wirework scrolls, and cabochon-cut semi-precious gemstones such as rose quartz, rock crystal, moonstone, and amethyst. Settings often showcase wire cages or bezel mounts rather than high-carat gold and faceted diamonds.

Authentic pieces display evidence of hand fabrication, such as slight hammer marks, asymmetrical wirework, and custom bezel settings tailored to individual cabochons. Maker marks from recognised craftsmen alongside British silver hallmarks also confirm authenticity.

A long sautoir can be worn loosely over high-neck knitwear or minimalist dresses to highlight the vertical line and pendant tassel. Alternatively, longer chains can be looped around the neck twice to create a layered effect.

Clean the metal using a soft, non-abrasive polishing cloth to retain natural patina without removing delicate detail. Avoid submerging porous or mounted stones like quartz and rock crystal in harsh chemical cleaners or ultrasonic baths.
