1950s Christian Dior Poured Glass and Rhinestone Brooch – Rare MRS Couture

Gorgeous floral brooch by Dior! Rare that we find 1950’s designed costume jewelry in such excellent condition and the condition is a testament to the quality of this piece. The brooch is composed of seven smoky purple swirling poured glass cabochons surrounding a larger glass cabochon in a floral-like formation. There are small multifaceted round clear rhinestones accenting the space between the petals. Like many of their finest costume jewelry pieces, the brooch was made by ‘Kramer for Dior.’

In the 1950s and 1960s the House of Dior chose Kramer to produce its jewelry because of the jewelers attention to detail and use of such beautiful stones.*
