About Christian Dior

Christian Dior was one of the most influential couturiers of the 20th century. Costume jewellery was an essential part of his total look: lavish pieces with faux pearls, crystals and gilt metal, often inspired by nature and made with masters such as Mitchel Maer and Robert Goossens.

Every piece is checked for maker’s marks, construction and materials before we list it. Anything we cannot attribute with certainty we sell as unsigned — never as designer.

Free worldwide shipping on orders over € 100. Shipped with PostNL, insured and with track & trace.

30 days to change your mind. If you send a piece back, please use the original packaging.

Vintage jewelry lasts longest when kept dry and stored separately. Put it on last and take it off first: perfume, hairspray and skin cream all attack the plating.

Polish only with a soft, dry cloth. No water, no soap and no silver polish — that strips the layer off.

You are very welcome. Find us at our store on Herenstraat 9, Thursday to Sunday from 1 to 6 pm, and at our pop-up on the fourth floor of De Bijenkorf. Send us a message to say where and when you are coming and we will set the piece aside — we have only one of everything.
