Q: What is the length and how will it sit on the neck? A: The chain measures 41 cm (about 16.1 inches) end to end, so it wears as a short necklace at the base of the neck for most people. The heart pendant is approximately 2.5 × 3.5 cm, giving a delicate, everyday proportion.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: The necklace fastens with a clasp and CD charm. Some Dior chains include a short extender for minor adjustability; if present, you can shorten slightly by clipping into an earlier link. If you need extra length, a simple add‑on extender chain from a jeweller can be used. The listed length for this piece is 41 cm.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.

Delivery & Returns
Q: What is the length and how will it sit on the neck? A: The chain measures 41 cm (about 16.1 inches) end to end, so it wears as a short necklace at the base of the neck for most people. The heart pendant is approximately 2.5 × 3.5 cm, giving a delicate, everyday proportion.
Q: Is this necklace solid gold? A: No. Most vintage Christian Dior fashion jewellery is crafted from high‑quality base metal with a gold‑plated or gold‑toned finish rather than solid gold. This piece is described as gold‑toned, with light surface wear consistent with age and use.
Q: What type of stones are used—are they Swarovski crystals? A: Dior has a long history of using high‑quality glass crystals, and the house famously collaborated with Swarovski in the 1950s on the aurora borealis finish. However, not every piece uses Swarovski. For this necklace we describe the stones simply as crystals, as marked stones or packaging are not included to confirm a specific maker.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: The necklace fastens with a clasp and CD charm. Some Dior chains include a short extender for minor adjustability; if present, you can shorten slightly by clipping into an earlier link. If you need extra length, a simple add‑on extender chain from a jeweller can be used. The listed length for this piece is 41 cm.
Q: How should I care for a gold‑toned vintage necklace? A: Keep it dry and avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions, and cleaning chemicals. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth and store separately to prevent scratches. Avoid abrasive polishing cloths or dips designed for silver, as these can abrade plated finishes.
Q: Is it hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: Vintage costume jewellery may contain nickel in line with the norms of its time, and older pieces may predate today’s stricter standards. If you have sensitive skin, limit prolonged contact, wear it over clothing, or use a barrier product. Consider nickel‑free extenders or consult a jeweller for options if you react to mixed metals.
Q: Can the plating be refreshed or the chain altered? A: A professional jeweller can replate gold‑toned pieces and add or remove links/extenders. Note that replating may soften or partially cover hallmarks and can affect collectible value, so keep any work minimal and reversible where possible.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. For this piece, no additional items such as a box or card are listed.
