By 1948, Dior had opened a fashion house called “Dior Costume Jewelry” in Germany. Christian Dior jewelry is made with high-quality materials and craftsmanship and will last for many years. Dior considered jewelry part of the complete look. He specifically designed pieces for his collections, not as an afterthought. Christian Dior differed from many designers with his use of jewelry. Dior believed that jewelry was as much a part of fashion as clothing. The jewelry for each look was designed in detail for his collections without worrying about undermining the clothing. Brooch includes a Christian Dior velvet pouch.
