Maison Sasportas was a French jewelry house active in the early twentieth century and especially associated with the Art Deco and Retro periods. The maison gained recognition at the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes in Paris, where it is recorded as having received a gold medal. Its jewels reflect the sophistication of interwar Parisian design, combining strong geometry, refined workmanship, and bold use of contrasting materials.

Sasportas is known for Art Deco plaque bracelets, sculptural brooches, carved hardstones, enamel, onyx, chalcedony, aventurine, sapphires, citrines, and diamonds. Later Retro pieces often show greater volume and movement, including comet-inspired brooches and richly colored gemstone combinations. Today, Sasportas jewels are collected for their refined Art Deco geometry, unusual materials, and elegant mid-century French craftsmanship. Its surviving pieces offer a glimpse into the world of specialist Parisian makers whose work helped define the look of twentieth-century high jewelry.
