Vintage Jose & Maria Barrera Green Crystal Ball Tassel Sautoir Necklace

Jose & Maria Barrera Necklace.

This striking José & Maria Barrera sautoir necklace embodies the opulent, statement-driven aesthetic that made the Barreras legendary in the world of couture fashion jewelry. At its center is a brilliant green crystal sphere, suspended like a jewel-toned orb, finished with a flowing tassel that adds movement, drama, and unmistakable glamour.

Founded in New York in the 1970s, José & Maria Barrera became renowned for their sculptural, oversized creations worn by fashion icons such as Diana Vreeland, Andy Warhol, and Paloma Picasso, and featured in the collections of Yves Saint Laurent, Valentino, and Oscar de la Renta. Their jewelry blurred the line between accessory and wearable art — bold, theatrical, and unapologetically luxurious.

The sautoir format, originally popularized in the early 20th century, was reimagined by the Barreras into a powerful statement of modern elegance. The vibrant green crystal captures light beautifully, while the tassel creates graceful motion, making this necklace as captivating in wear as it is in display.
