Ideal for cocktail parties and evening soirées, this vintage Christian Dior bracelet catches the light with clear and grey crystals, blue enamel star details and CD logo links, lending refined sparkle to a little black dress or a sharp suit.
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: Will this bracelet fit me? A: The bracelet measures up to approximately 25 cm in length and around 1 cm in width. To check fit, measure your wrist just below the bone and add about 1–2 cm for a comfortable chain‑bracelet fit. If your ideal length is shorter than 25 cm and the design includes open links near the clasp, you may be able to fasten to an earlier link for a slightly shorter wear. For precise sizing, refer to the Measurements on this page and compare with a bracelet you already wear comfortably.
Q: What is it made of—are we talking solid silver? A: This is Dior fashion jewellery with a silver‑tone finish, embellished with clear and grey rhinestones and blue enamel star details. Fashion jewellery from Dior is typically plated (gold‑ or rhodium‑tone) over a base metal rather than solid sterling silver.
Q: Are the stones real diamonds? A: No. The stones are rhinestones (high‑quality glass crystals). Dior has historically used premium crystals in its costume pieces, but the exact supplier for this bracelet is not specified for this item.
Q: Can I adjust the length? A: The lobster clasp provides a secure closure. Some chain‑link designs allow minor adjustment by clipping the clasp to an earlier open link. Permanent length changes require a jeweller to remove or add links if feasible; note that altering plated fashion jewellery can be complex and may affect the finish.
Q: How should I care for the rhinestones and enamel stars? A: After each wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry, lint‑free cloth. Avoid contact with water, perfume, hairspray, lotions and abrasive products. Do not soak or use ultrasonic cleaners. For light refresh, use a barely damp cloth on metal only and dry thoroughly. Keep enamel away from knocks and abrasives, and store separately in a soft pouch to prevent scratching.
Q: Is it authentic and what hallmarks should I expect? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, and Dior signatures. Dior hallmarks are commonly found on a cartouche or near the clasp, with stamp styles varying by era. We can share close‑up photos on request.
Q: What exactly is included with this bracelet? A: This piece is sold without additional accessories. Everything included is always listed under the Accessories section; if a Dior box or certificate is not listed, it is not included.
Q: What condition is it in? A: Very Good vintage condition with light signs of wear. The hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches, and you may notice minor traces of use consistent with age. Please review the photos for details.
Q: Can lost rhinestones or enamel chips be repaired? A: Many independent jewellers can replace rhinestones and perform careful touch‑ups on fashion jewellery. Brand boutiques usually focus on current collections and may have limited options for vintage pieces. If you ever need help, contact us and we can advise on reputable specialists.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? A: The exact base‑metal composition of vintage fashion jewellery is not specified and may include mixed alloys. If you have a known metal sensitivity, consider limiting wear time, using a clear jewellery barrier on contact areas, or opting for fine‑metal alternatives.
