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 the size and fit of this J'Adior choker? A: It is adjustable and typically fits from about 29–37 cm (approximately 11.5–14.5 in) thanks to its lobster clasp. This piece measures up to 36 cm and wears as a true neck‑hugging choker. For the best fit, measure your neck close to the base and add 1–2 cm for comfort.
Q: What materials is it made from? A: A black velvet ribbon holds the 'J'ADIOR' signature in white crystals set on antique palladium‑finish (aged silver‑tone) metal. Dior’s fashion jewellery often uses plated finishes over a base metal, with exact composition varying by model.
Q: When did the J'Adior line launch? A: J'Adior became a signature theme under Maria Grazia Chiuri around the Spring/Summer 2017 collections, appearing across jewellery, shoes and accessories, including chokers.
Q: Is the choker adjustable or can I add extra length? A: Yes—the built‑in clasp and extender allow you to fine‑tune the fit within its range. If you need a little more length, a slim extender chain can be attached to the lobster clasp (not included).
Q: How should I care for the velvet and crystals? A: Keep it dry and avoid perfumes, hairspray and lotions. After wear, gently wipe the metal and crystals with a soft, dry cloth. Remove lint from the velvet with a lint roller or soft velvet brush. For a mark on the ribbon, lightly dab with a barely damp cloth and let it air‑dry flat; never soak the ribbon or use ultrasonic cleaners.
Q: Can I wear it in water or during exercise? A: No. Water, sweat and steam can dull the plating, loosen crystal settings and flatten the velvet pile. Remove the choker before showering, swimming, workouts or saunas.
Q: Is it nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive skin? A: Dior does not advertise its fashion jewellery as nickel‑free. Reactions vary by person, so if you have metal sensitivities, limit wear, keep the area dry and consider applying a clear barrier product on skin‑contact points. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Q: Where is Dior fashion jewellery like this made? A: Production varies by model and season; official J'Adior choker pages indicate European manufacture such as Germany or Portugal. The country‑of‑origin stamp can differ between pieces.
Q: How should I store it? A: Store it flat to avoid creasing the velvet and catching the crystal letters. Keep it in a soft pouch, away from humidity and direct sunlight. This listing is sold without accessories, so we recommend using a breathable pouch or box you already own for safekeeping.
