Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What is this necklace made of? A: It is a vintage Christian Dior fashion piece crafted in silver‑tone metal with a crystal‑embellished heart padlock pendant on a box chain. Dior fashion jewellery typically uses metal with a silver or gold finish and crystals rather than solid precious metals, unless explicitly hallmarked otherwise.
Q: Is the heart padlock a working lock? A: No. The heart padlock is a fixed, decorative pendant and does not open or function as a lock.
Q: What is the chain length and how will it sit when worn? A: The chain measures approximately 43 cm and fastens with a lobster clasp. On most necklines it wears like a short necklace that sits around the base of the neck; fit can vary by individual.
Q: Are the pendant measurements available? A: Yes. The heart pendant is approximately 18 mm high and 12 mm wide, making it a subtle, everyday size with a bit of sparkle.
Q: Can the length be adjusted? A: This piece is not supplied with an extender and has a fixed wearing length of about 43 cm. If you prefer extra length, a jeweller can add a small 2–5 cm extender; we recommend keeping any modification discreet to preserve the original look.
Q: How should I care for silver‑tone, crystal‑set Dior fashion jewellery? A: Remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping; avoid contact with perfume, lotions and hairspray; wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear; store fastened and separately in a dry place to prevent tangling and scratches. Avoid abrasive polishes, liquid dips and ultrasonic cleaners, which can damage plating and loosening of crystals.
Q: Will it tarnish or show wear over time? A: As with all plated fashion jewellery, normal surface wear can develop with use. Following the care tips above will help minimise tarnish and preserve the finish and sparkle of the crystals.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? A: Dior fashion jewellery may contain base metals beneath the finish. If you have metal sensitivities, consider trying short wear initially or using a clear barrier on contact points. For guaranteed hypoallergenic performance, solid‑metal fine jewellery is a better choice.
Q: How is authenticity verified for this vintage Dior necklace? A: Authentic Dior pieces typically feature hallmarks on the clasp or pendant, such as the Christian Dior signature and, on many vintage items, a copyright year or country of manufacture. At A Retro Tale, every item is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, signatures and era‑correct details; additional photos can be provided on request.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Only the necklace as photographed. Branded packaging or papers are not included unless explicitly stated under product information.
