The Necklace or The Diamond Necklace (original title: La Parure) is a short story by Guy de Maupassant, first published in 1884 in the French newspaper Le Gaulois. The story has become one of Maupassant's most popular works and is well known for its twist ending. It is also the inspiration for Henry James' short story, Paste. It was first translated into English by Marjorie Laurie in 1934.
The Necklace tells the story of a middle class couple, Monsieur and Madame Loisel, who are invited to a distinguished party. Madame Loisel, however, is hesitant to attend, complaining that "there's nothing so humiliating as looking poor in the middle of a lot of rich women." In addition to acquiring a new dress, at her husband's suggestion she borrows a necklace from her friend, Madame Forestier, and attends the party. Distressingly, Madame Loisel somehow loses the necklace during the evening.
Monsieur and Madame Loisel decide they must buy an identical diamond necklace as a replacement for Madame Forestier. Unable to bear the shame of this, they do not inform Madame Forestier of the change and spend the next ten years of their lives paying off the debts from the new necklace. Both Monsieur and Madame Loisel are forced to take on extra jobs and live in abject poverty. At the end of the ten years, Madame Loisel is finally able to tell her old friend of the change. Madame Forestier is shocked and informs Madame Loisel that her original necklace was, in fact, paste and not real diamonds, "...worth at the very most five hundred francs! . . . "
