Crystal and enamel on a gold band, signed inside: a Dior ring that carries the house's name close to the skin.
This ring was made for Christian Dior in the 1980s in gold-tone metal, set with a faceted crystal and decorated with enamel. The Dior signature is etched inside the band. In the 1980s Dior's costume jewellery included rings, earrings, brooches and necklaces, often combining crystal, enamel and gold-tone metal.
The house's name, worn close to the skin.
Signed costume rings from couture houses offered the house's style in an accessible form. Colourful enamel and crystal settings suited the decade's taste for bold, decorative jewellery.
The 1980s embraced statement jewellery, with large stones, enamel colours and gold tones. Rings were worn stacked or alone, as a strong accent.
The faceted crystal provides light, the enamel adds colour and detail, and the gold-tone band gives warmth. The etched signature inside the band is a discreet mark of authenticity.
Light, colour and warmth, signed inside.
Signed Dior rings from the 1980s are less common than brooches and earrings. This example, with slight wear consistent with age, is a wearable piece of the house's costume jewellery.
Signed pieces from couture houses are among the most collected vintage costume jewellery.
