Perfect for cocktails, weddings or an elevated brunch, this vintage Christian Dior long necklace brings a warm gold-tone glow to any look. The adjustable long chain and spherical pendant with logo engraving layer beautifully over knits or sleek dresses, fastening with a lobster clasp for effortless day-to-night elegance.
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 length and how can I adjust it? A: The necklace measures approximately 100 cm and is adjustable. The lobster clasp can be fastened into different chain links to vary the drop, and you can add a small extender for extra length. Many long chains around this length can also be wrapped twice for a layered look—try it and see what feels comfortable for you.
Q: What are the dimensions of the pendant? A: The spherical pendant is approximately 2.5 cm high, 2 cm wide and 1 cm deep, giving a subtle yet noticeable focal point.
Q: What is it made of—solid gold or gold‑tone? A: This is Dior fashion jewellery with a gold‑tone finish. As is typical for vintage Dior costume pieces, components are gold‑plated over a base metal rather than solid gold.
Q: Will the gold‑tone colour wear or tarnish over time? A: Plated finishes can lose lustre with exposure to moisture, perfumes, lotions and abrasive cleaners. After wearing, gently wipe the necklace with a soft, dry cloth, avoid water and chemical contact, and store it individually in a dry pouch to minimise scratching and tarnish.
Q: Is it hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: We cannot guarantee this piece is nickel‑free. Vintage and fashion jewellery may include base alloys that can release small amounts of nickel, and older pieces may pre‑date modern limits. If you have sensitive skin, consider applying a clear barrier product on contact areas and limit prolonged wear.
Q: How do you authenticate this Dior necklace? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, plating, construction, signatures and hardware. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
Q: Does this item come with a box or accessories? A: This necklace is sold without accessories. Everything included is stated in the Accessories section on this page.
Q: Any styling tips for a long chain like this? A: Wear the pendant long over knits or sleek dresses, or shorten the drop by clasping higher along the chain. For layered looks, pair with shorter chains and consider a layering clasp to help keep multiple necklaces tangle‑free.
