Perfect for dinner dates, gallery openings or a polished office look, this vintage Christian Dior CD necklace in gold-tone lends refined elegance to any ensemble. Sitting neatly at the collarbone, it gleams as a subtle statement with a silk blouse or layers effortlessly with 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 chain length and how will it sit when worn? A: The chain is approximately 45 cm long and adjustable via the spring‑ring clasp for a closer fit. On most necks it sits around the collarbone as a classic short pendant. For reference, 45 cm is about 17.7 inches.
Q: What are the pendant dimensions? A: The CD logo pendant is about 1.5 cm across with a slim profile of approximately 0.2 cm, making it easy to layer with other delicate chains.
Q: What materials is this vintage necklace made from? A: It features a gold‑tone finish typical of Dior’s fashion jewellery. Such pieces are usually crafted from brass with gold‑finish plating rather than solid gold. As a vintage item, the exact alloy and plating thickness are not specified.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or fade with wear? A: Fashion jewellery can dull or discolour over time, especially with exposure to moisture, perfume, lotions and sweat. To help preserve the finish, avoid contact with water and cosmetics, wipe with a soft dry cloth after wear, and store it separately in a pouch in a cool, dry place.
Q: How should I clean and care for this necklace? A: Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth after each wear. If needed, use a barely damp cloth with a touch of mild soap, then dry immediately. Do not soak the piece or use ultrasonic cleaners, alcohol, bleach, silver dips, or abrasive cloths/brushes, as these can damage plated finishes.
Q: Is this necklace hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: As a vintage brass‑based piece, we cannot guarantee it is nickel‑free. If you have sensitive skin, consider wearing it over clothing or applying a clear jewellery‑shield coating to contact points. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Q: Is the pendant removable so I can use a different chain? A: The CD logo pendant is intended to be worn with its original rope chain and is not designed for frequent removal or swapping. We do not recommend forcing components open; a jeweller can advise on safe options if you wish to customise.
Q: How secure is the spring‑ring clasp for everyday wear? A: Spring‑ring clasps are commonly used for light to medium necklaces and are secure when fully closed. Always ensure it clicks shut and attach it to a sound end link or extender loop. For extra peace of mind, a jeweller can upgrade the clasp if desired.
Q: Does this item come with a Dior box or authenticity card? A: Accessories: no accessories. It will be carefully packed by A Retro Tale for secure delivery. Everything included is listed in the Accessories section on this page.
Q: How do you authenticate this vintage Dior necklace? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly vetted by our in‑house experts. For Dior jewellery we check stamps and plaques (such as Dior or Chr. Dior marks), construction quality, plating and era‑appropriate details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further photos or details on request.
