This striking Christian Dior brooch was designed by the world-renowned fashion house circa mid 1980s. It was almost certainly manufactured by Henkel & Grosse who have a long association with jewellery making for Dior that began in 1955.

Drawing on celestial motifs, it forms a large crescent moon surrounded by a circular stylised sun. The moon has a textured criss-cross surface detailed with debossed stars. The sun has organic, curved lines swirling across its surface. The back features a long clasp which is secured with a C-clasp. There is a stamp on the rear of the brooch that reads “Chr. Dior”. This brooch is in excellent vintage condition with no flaws and no wear to the gold anywhere.
