The centrepiece is a teardrop-shaped pendant with a twisted, sculptural relief reminiscent of a rope or braid motif. The classic CD monogram is subtly incorporated in the centre. The design is rich in baroque influences, as often seen in Dior's statement jewellery of that period — striking, refined and timelessly stylish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChristian Dior was an influential French fashion designer, known for his elegant and innovative designs.
