Christian Dior

Jewelry was part of the Dior silhouette from the start, and the house licensed costume jewelry to skilled makers in several countries, including the German firm Henkel & Grosse, whose pieces are often marked 'Chr. Dior Germany' with a year. Dior costume jewelry ranges from elegant pearls and crystal pieces to bold gold-tone and enamel designs of the 1970s and 1980s. Markings and dates help collectors identify the maker and period. Each listing gives the signature, era and measurements where known, so you can see exactly which Dior piece you are buying.
