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 Christian Dior necklace made from? A: This is Dior fashion jewellery with a silver-tone finish and rhinestone embellishments. Dior’s costume necklaces are typically crafted in brass with a plated finish and a lobster clasp; many vintage examples used high‑quality crystals and some collections featured Swarovski stones. Please refer to the product information on this page for exact details of this piece.
Q: How does the 36 cm length fit? A: 36 cm is choker length (about 14.2 inches) and will sit high at the base of most necks. The V‑shaped centrepiece measures approximately 8 cm across, as noted in the product information. If you prefer a looser fit, a small extender chain can be added by a jeweller.
Q: Is this solid sterling silver? A: No. Unless a Dior piece is explicitly stamped 925 sterling and described as such, Dior fashion jewellery is usually brass with a silver‑finish plating rather than solid silver.
Q: How should I clean and care for vintage rhinestones? A: Avoid soaking, ultrasonic, or ionic cleaners. Use a soft, dry brush or a slightly damp cloth and keep the stones facing down so moisture does not seep behind foil‑backed crystals. Dry immediately. Keep away from perfumes, lotions, and hairspray, and store the necklace dry and separate to protect the plated finish.
Q: A stone is loose or missing—can it be repaired? A: Yes. A professional jeweller can secure a loose stone or replace a missing one with a matching rhinestone or crystal. DIY repairs with strong household glues are not recommended, as excess adhesive can damage the plating and settings.
Q: Is it hypoallergenic? A: Vintage costume jewellery can include base‑metal alloys that may release trace nickel over time. If you have sensitive skin, consider using a clear barrier on contact areas, limit prolonged wear, and remove the necklace if any irritation occurs.
Q: Can I wear this every day? A: You can, but occasional wear is recommended to preserve plating and rhinestones. Remove before showering, swimming, exercising, or sleeping, and wipe the piece after wear to minimise moisture and residue build‑up.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this listing, the necklace is included; no additional items are noted.
