What is the Amalfi Sautoir by Françoise Montague?
The Amalfi Sautoir is a long handcrafted necklace from the Maison Françoise Montague, founded in 1945 at 231 Rue Saint-Honoré in Paris. It is made up of four flame-cast glass paste clovers, spaced along a strand of pearly white beads, set on a 24-carat fine gold-plated copper base. Its unique feature: it can be worn as a single strand like a long poetic necklace, or doubled for a structured set inspired by high couture jewelry. It forms a complete set with the Amalfi Earrings and the Amalfi Short Necklace.
What is flame-cast glass paste?
Flame-cast glass paste is a handcrafted technique in which the glass material is worked directly with heat by an artisan. Each clover of the Amalfi Necklace is individually shaped in our workshop at 231 Rue Saint-Honoré. The slight variations in color and the fine air bubbles visible in each pattern are authentic marks of this craftsmanship: no clover is identical to another. This precise gesture, which requires years of mastery, has been passed down in the House since 1945.
Can the Amalfi Sautoir be worn as a double strand?
Yes. The Amalfi Sautoir was designed to be worn in two ways: as a single strand, it falls in length with the flexibility of a long, poetic necklace, elegant over an open shirt or evening dress. Doubled, it becomes a structured piece, in the spirit of high couture jewelry; worn this way, it stands out as the centerpiece of an outfit. This dual interpretation makes it a jewel with multiple styling possibilities, suitable for everyday wear as well as special occasions.
Can the Amalfi Necklace be given as a gift?
Each Amalfi Sautoir is presented in its Françoise Montague case, hand-sealed with our wax seal bearing the House's coat of arms. This ceremonial gesture, inherited from the codes of private correspondence, turns each purchase into a precious object even before it is opened. A private appointment at the workshop at 231 Rue Saint-Honoré can be arranged upon request to discover the five colors side by side and create a harmony or to accompany the purchase with a personalized handwritten note.
Does the Maison offer tax-free shopping and international shipping for the Amalfi Necklace?

Shipping to the United States and Gulf countries is handled DDP (Delivered Duty Paid): taxes and customs duties are included in the displayed price, with no surprises upon delivery.

Exceptional expertise

In Françoise Montague's creations, the glass is melted at over 800°C with a flame. Our artisans fuse colored glass rods onto a copper framework, shaped by hand.

Small bubbles, slight asymmetries, and veins caused by the torch smoke reveal the handcrafting process. A perfectly smooth and symmetrical piece betrays industrial production.

Since 1945

The house of Françoise Montague was founded in 1945, heir to a Parisian jewelry workshop passed down by her mother. Françoise's style quickly became distinctive and recognizable: enameled and iridescent glass beads, unique craftsmanship, and boundless creativity. Within a few years, the house made a name for itself among lovers of characterful jewelry, staying true to a standard that has never wavered.

In 1978, a new chapter began. At just twenty-one years old, Marion Stern took the reins with the ambition to take the house even further. A visionary, she explored new territories and forged connections beyond borders: as early as 1981, Françoise Montague’s creations reached Asia, the Middle East, and the West. In 1998, she took a decisive step by opening the boutique at 231 rue Saint-Honoré, in the heart of Paris’s fashion and luxury district.

Today, the story continues. In June 2023, I joined the adventure in turn. My name is Rebecca Mamou-Stern, and with my engineer’s perspective and all the expertise passed down before me, I bring this house to life, between heritage and modernity. Every creation that leaves the workshop extends this story and writes it a little further.
