Christian Dior 1969 Multi-Chain with Turquoise Blue Decorative Clasp
This Christian Dior multiple-chain necklace was made in 1969. It has 5 gold-plated, twisted rope-style chains, each terminating at a decorative clasp which features turquoise and navy blue glass cabochons. The necklace fastens securely with a hidden push clasp. The shortest length of the chain measures 78cm.
The necklace is signed on the rear of the clasp '19 Chr Dior © 69 Germany'.
The condition is wonderful, with all original stones present and full metal plating throughout.
It will come well-packaged in a Gadelles box. Please note: the final image shows a grey and white Christian Dior paper label which is for display only and is not included.
Christian Dior
Christian Dior launched his fashion house in 1947 and from the beginning designed jewellery to complement the 'New Look' clothing he was creating. He used only the most talented and reputable companies to manufacture his jewellery designs. You'll see pieces for Dior by Kramer, Mitchel Maer, and Grosse.
All items were signed and many were dated.
Does Dior jewellery hold its value?
Christian Dior fashion jewellery is well worth collecting. Dior jewellery is renowned for its quality and craftmanship as well as its pleasing designs and innovative use of art glass and crystals. The market for midcentury Dior jewellery is exploding at the moment with prices climbing as pieces become increasingly difficult to find. Dior jewellery from the 1970s onwards is quickly following the upwards trajectory.
How do you rate the condition of a piece?
Excellent - No visible flaws to note but items may exhibit some signs of age related wear
Very Good - Some visible flaws which aren't considered to impair the wearability of the piece
Good - Some more notable flaws but the piece is still in collectible condition
All items are vintage and have lived a previous life, therefore signs of age related wear are to be expected. I do my best to bring attention to any faults in the description and by using the condition scale.
