A rare and collectible treasure from the 50-year collaboration between the French fashion house Christian Dior and the traditional German manufacturer of jewelry and costume jewelry in Pforzheim. This brooch was designed and manufactured in 1961 and produced in limited quantities.

The centerpiece of this beautiful statement brooch is a large baroque pearl surrounded by five faceted glass stones. Below it are five small pearls, surrounded by 14 faceted navet-shaped glass stones, each with a small pearl at the end. Hanging from the brooch are three small faceted navet-shaped glass stones and a baroque pearl measuring approximately 2.8 cm.

Whether on a jacket, blazer, or dress, this brooch makes a statement! Let it out in the sun and it will sparkle and enchant – selected with love.
