Perfect for cocktail parties and festive dinners, this vintage Christian Dior triple-chain necklace in gold, silver and gunmetal tones adds instant glamour. The braided layers frame necklines beautifully, while the CD clasp lends a refined finish for black-tie events, gallery openings or chic date nights—an easy way to elevate monochrome tailoring or a little black dress.
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 where does it sit? A: The necklace measures approximately 78 cm in perimeter, giving a long, statement look that typically sits around the upper bust on most wearers. Fit will vary by body frame; please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact length.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: This design closes with a CD logo clasp and does not include an extender, so the wearable length is fixed at about 78 cm. A jeweller can add a short extender if you prefer extra drop.
Q: What is it made of? Is it solid gold or silver? A: It is crafted in mixed gold-, silver- and gunmetal‑tone metal. Like most vintage Dior fashion jewellery, it is plated over a base metal rather than solid precious metal.
Q: Will the finish tarnish or change colour over time? A: Plated finishes can dull with exposure to moisture, sweat, perfume and abrasion. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear, avoid water and chemicals, and store it separately in a pouch to minimise friction and oxidation.
Q: Can I wear it every day or in the shower? A: We recommend removing it for showering, swimming, exercise and sleep. Daily exposure to water, lotions and friction will accelerate wear to the plating—occasional use and careful storage will keep it looking its best for longer.
Q: I have sensitive skin—does vintage Dior jewellery contain nickel? A: Many vintage fashion‑jewellery alloys can release trace amounts of nickel. If you have a known sensitivity, limit wear to short periods, use a clear jewellery‑shield at contact points, and choose hypoallergenic metals for everyday wear.
Q: What comes with this item? A: This listing includes the necklace only. Accessories are listed explicitly; for this piece, Accessories: no accessories.
Q: Any styling tips for a triple‑chain in mixed metals? A: The braided triple chain and mixed metal tones make it easy to pair with both gold and silver pieces. It layers beautifully over a simple knit or a little black dress and coordinates well with mixed‑metal earrings or bangles.
