Christian DiorCD Pearl Bracelet

Q: What is this bracelet made from?
A: It is crafted in silver‑tone metal and adorned with white faux pearls and clear crystals, with a CD logo detail. As with most Dior fashion jewellery, the pearls are resin rather than natural pearls.

Q: Are the pearls real?
A: No. Dior’s fashion jewellery line typically uses white resin pearls for a luminous, uniform finish. Only Dior fine jewellery uses precious materials such as solid gold and natural gemstones.

Q: Is the bracelet adjustable and what wrist size will it fit?
A: Yes. It closes with an adjustable lobster clasp and fits wrists up to approximately 16.5 cm. If you prefer a looser drape, choose a wrist measurement slightly under 16.5 cm; for a snug fit, your wrist should be closer to 15.5–16 cm. Measuring your wrist with a soft tape will give the best result.

Q: How should I care for resin‑pearl and crystal fashion jewellery?
A: Avoid contact with water, perfumes, lotions and cleaning agents; wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear; store separately in a pouch to prevent scratches; and avoid abrasive polishes or ultrasonic cleaners. These habits help preserve plating and crystal settings over time.

Q: Can I wear it in the shower or while swimming?
A: It is not recommended. Moisture, soaps and chlorinated or salt water can dull the plating and adhesives used in crystal settings and may cause premature wear.

Q: Will silver‑tone fashion jewellery tarnish or show wear?
A: Plated fashion jewellery can show surface wear with normal use, especially at friction points. Gentle handling and avoiding chemicals and moisture will minimise this. This piece is graded Very Good with minor marks on the hardware, as noted in the Condition section.

Q: How is this Dior bracelet authenticated and what hallmarks should I expect?
A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously checked by our in‑house experts. Many Dior pieces carry a signature plaque or stamp such as “Christian Dior” or “Chr. Dior”; some vintage items may also show a date or country of manufacture (for example, Germany on pieces produced with Henkel & Grosse). Stamping can vary by era and maker, so absence of a date does not imply inauthenticity.

Q: What comes with the bracelet?
A: This listing includes the bracelet only; no accessories are included unless stated in the Accessories section.

Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin or nickel allergies?
A: Dior fashion jewellery typically uses plated base metals. While many wearers have no issues, we cannot guarantee the absence of nickel. If you have a known sensitivity, consider limiting wear time, using a clear barrier product on contact points, or choosing solid precious‑metal jewellery for daily wear.
