Dior Joaillerie’s newest collection Rose des Vents has taken shape after the anecdotes from Christian Dior’s life. It has been inspired by  Christian Dior’s travels around the world, his favorite flower and also by the star that became his lucky charm after he had found on the very day Maison Christian Dior was created. Christian_Dior_Rose_des_Vents_1Designed by Dior Joaillerie’s creative director Victoire de Castellane, the  new collection of precious lucky charms pays tribute to the rose des vents, or wind rose which was a recurring motif in Christian Dior’s life. Comprising of four bracelets, four necklaces and one long necklace, each of the pieces in the collection is double-sided. On one side a diamond is set in the center of a “rose des vents” in pink gold. On the other side, a precious stone represents each of the cardinal directions: mother-of-pearl for north, turquoise for south, pink opal for east and lapis-lazuli for west. The stones from far-flung horizons reprise some of Monsieur Dior’s favorite colors.
