Vintage 1950’s Mitchel Maer for Christian Dior Floral Motif Necklace

This fabulous 1950’s necklace by Mitchel Maer for Christian Dior features eight beautifully floral adornments in a paisley motif pattern.  The eight floral segments feature prong set emerald green and lilac shaded rhinestones in silver toned rhodium plating. The condition of the necklace is wonderful especially the rhodium plating that has faired very well considering that the necklace dates from the 1950’s.  The necklace has an oval cartouche that is signed Mitchel Maer for Christian Dior.
