At Daisy Lain, we don’t just offer jewellery — we celebrate the artistry, the signature styles, and the stories behind some of the most iconic names in vintage jewellery. From mid-century glamour to retro chic, our curated collection brings together pieces from legendary designers whose work continues to inspire and enchant. Here are a few of the designers and standout pieces you’ll find at Daisy Lain — each with its own tale and unique charm.
Christian Dior (often by Mitchel Maer, Henkel & Grosse and other famed ateliers) — Couture Jewellery with History
Christian Dior jewellery from the mid-20th century remains among the most sought-after by collectors worldwide — and for good reason. The craftsmanship, the elegance, and the timeless appeal of these pieces are unrivaled.

One of our most coveted pieces is the 1950s Floral Motif Necklace by Mitchel Maer for Christian Dior. This necklace features eight floral segments adorned with emerald-green and lilac-shaded rhinestones, set in rhodium-plated metal. Each detail — from the careful prong settings to the signed cartouche — speaks of impeccable craftsmanship and the refined elegance that defined Dior jewellery in the 1950s. Daisy Lain

For lovers of coordinated glamour, we also stock complete parures (sets) — necklace, brooch, and clip-on earrings — such as the Victorian Revival Parure by Mitchel Maer for Christian Dior. This set showcases pale green faux-peridot stones and classic teardrop diamante detailing, evoking vintage sophistication perfect for formal occasions. Daisy Lain

Another stunning option is the Christian Dior “En Tremblant” Pearl and Rhinestone Necklace, where a central floral element is mounted on a spring, giving the piece subtle movement — a beautiful nod to vintage design flair. Daisy Lain
Whether you’re after glamorous statement pieces or elegant classics, Dior’s mid-century jewellery range remains a shining anchor of our collection.
Miriam Haskell — Handmade Beadwork & Timeless Grace
If handcrafted elegance and vintage charm speak to you, Miriam Haskell jewellery offers understated sophistication with a timeless appeal.
-
Our 1950s Faux-Ivory Bead Necklace and Earrings Set by Miriam Haskell. Perfectly captures the brand’s signature style: layered creamy beads, gold-toned embellishments, and delicate floral-pattern detailing on the earrings’ backing. The set radiates vintage femininity and retains a breathtaking antique character. Daisy Lain
This is jewellery meant to be worn — not archived. For those who love pieces with subtle grace, quality, and history. Miriam Haskell remains a standout favourite.
Trifari — Bold, Playful & Collectible Vintage Classics
A powerhouse name in costume jewellery, Trifari has produced some of the most collectible mid-century designs. — distinctive, playful and often statement-making.
-
Among our offerings is a selection from Art Deco-era to Retro Trifari, including necklaces, brooches, and parures that reflect the flair and creativity of decades past. Daisy Lain

Trifari pieces often combine glamour with versatility — perfect for those who love bold accessories but appreciate the vintage provenance behind them.
For collectors and fashion lovers alike, Trifari jewellery offers a refreshing counterpoint to classic couture — fun, expressive, and full of character.
Yves Saint Laurent (via Robert Goossens) — Statement Vintage Pieces with Flair
While couture jewellery often leans on classical elegance, some designers embraced bold statements. And our vintage section showcases pieces that did just that.
-
One shining example is the Vintage YSL Ruby Crystal Earrings by Robert Goossens: gold-plated clip-ons set with rich ruby-red crystals and sparkling clear stones, dating from the 1970s–1980s. These earrings capture the boldness and glamour of the period and remain a striking addition to any vintage jewellery collection. Daisy Lain
These are pieces for those who love to make a statement — jewellery with presence, glamour, and a story.
