Dior has unveiled new additions to its Rose des Vents jewellery line, first introduced in 2015 by artistic director Victoire de Castellane.
The collection, which draws inspiration from Christian Dior’s childhood home in Granville, features the compass rose motif seen in the garden of the villa Les Rhumbs. The eight-pointed star symbol, said to reflect Dior’s affinity for the number eight, has become a recurring emblem in the house’s designs.
The latest pieces extend several chapters of the Rose des Vents story, including Rose Céleste, The Charms and Étoile des Vents. Highlights include a new ring influenced by the Tribale design and a watch styled as a pendulum, both incorporating signature elements of the collection.
The Rose Céleste range has been updated with reversible medallions depicting the sun and moon, now available as necklaces, rings and earrings. Materials such as mother-of-pearl and onyx are used to enhance contrast and versatility.
Among the more decorative additions are charms representing symbols including lily of the valley, hearts, roses, skull and crossbones, ivy and bees. These feature necklaces, bracelets, brooches, earrings and rings, including a double-finger style designed to suggest a bee in flight.
The plastron necklace, a larger statement piece, combines multiple motifs and conceals stones on the reverse side.
The Étoile des Vents series continues to spotlight Dior’s use of talismans, with diamond-accented ear cuffs and other pieces designed for mix-and-match styling.
The new designs reinforce Dior’s ongoing exploration of its heritage symbols through contemporary interpretations in fine jewellery.
