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: Is this Christian Dior Heel Motif Necklace authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What materials is it made from? Is it solid gold? A: This necklace is crafted from gold‑tone metal featuring a rope chain and a playful heel motif pendant. It is vintage fashion jewellery, not solid gold. Please review the close‑up photos to inspect the finish and contact us if you need further details.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it fit? A: The necklace has a listed perimeter of approximately 45 cm, which is adjustable. The pendant measures about 3 cm in height and 1 cm in width. At this length, it typically sits comfortably around the collarbone or upper chest.
Q: How does the clasp work? A: It fastens with a secure lobster clasp closure. The adjustable chain design allows you to vary the drop length slightly to suit different necklines.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect? A: Vintage Christian Dior jewellery typically bears a "Dior" or "Chr. Dior" stamp, often located on the back of the pendant or on a small hangtag near the clasp. Some pieces may also include a "Germany" mark or a "CD" logo tag. Our listing photos show any stamps present on this specific piece.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? A: Vintage costume jewellery is often made from mixed metal alloys that may contain nickel. If you have metal sensitivities, we recommend testing the piece for short periods or wearing it over clothing. Discontinue wear if irritation occurs.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish? A: To preserve the plating, keep the necklace dry and avoid direct contact with perfume, lotions, hairspray, and water. After wearing, wipe it gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Store it separately in a pouch or box to prevent the rope chain from tangling or scratching.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This necklace is in Very Good Condition with light signs of wear consistent with its vintage nature. It includes no accessories unless specifically shown or stated. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes, and conditions.
