At its centre hangs a striking little pendant in the shape of a padlock, a playful yet meaningful motif that can symbolise love, trust or protection. The padlock is richly finished with clear rhinestone crystals along the lower edge and subtly bears the iconic CD monogram in the middle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adjustable clasp with the small round Dior tag at the end is typical of this period and confirms the authenticity of the design.
