Perfect for weddings, soirées and festive dinners, the Christian Dior Petit CD pearl necklace lends elegant sparkle. With a gold-tone finish, white resin pearls, crystal pavé star charms and the discreet 'CD' signature, it elevates everything from a little black dress to tailored eveningwear.
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 necklace made from? A: It is Dior fashion jewellery crafted in gold‑tone metal with white resin pearl and crystal pavé star detailing, featuring the CD signature and a toggle closure. It is not solid gold.
Q: Are the pearls real? A: No. Dior’s fashion jewellery typically uses white resin pearls for the Petit CD line and other designs; they are not natural or cultured pearls.
Q: What is the length and how will it fit? A: The necklace measures approximately 42 cm in perimeter. This sits around the base of the neck as a short necklace and layers well with longer chains.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: This design has a toggle closure and is intended to be worn at a fixed length. A professional jeweller may be able to make small adjustments, but we do not offer resizing services.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or wear? A: As with most plated fashion jewellery, the finish can dull or wear with exposure to moisture, perspiration, perfume, lotions or abrasive contact. With careful use and proper storage, you can keep the shine for longer.
Q: How should I care for and clean it? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid water, perfume, hairspray and creams. Remove before showering, swimming or exercising. Store in a dry pouch or box away from direct sunlight. Do not use harsh chemicals, silver dips or ultrasonic cleaners.
Q: Are the crystals from a specific brand (e.g., Swarovski)? A: Dior describes the design as set with crystals/pavé but does not specify a crystal supplier. The exact sourcing can vary by season and style.
Q: Is this necklace hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: Dior lists these pieces as gold‑finish metal without detailing full alloy composition. If you have metal sensitivities, consider patch‑testing briefly or consulting a jeweller; we cannot guarantee it is nickel‑free.
Q: What is included with this listing? A: Everything included is shown under the product information section on this page. If an item (such as a box or pouch) is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this piece? A: Every item is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction and branding. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further details on request.
