An exceptional and rare vintage French blue Aurora Borealis Austrian Crystal statement jewelry set from the mid-1950s. Set within an unusual silver-tone setting of intertwined leaves, each individually-pronged crystal forms a radiant, glowing “flower”. The quality of this set reflects the attention to detail of mid-century craftsmanship. Though each part of the parure can be worn individually, the effect of all three pieces worn together is simply dazzling! 
Dare to release your inner diva. 
 
Necklace with hook clasp and additional extension chain. 
Bracelet with box clasp and safety chain.
Clip earrings. 
 
In 1956, French fashion designer Christian Dior collaborated with Daniel Swarovski's grandson, Manfred, to introduce the Aurora Borealis: an iridescent coating applied to crystal rhinestones that produced a rainbow effect. For around 10 years, these pieces became the height of fashion and are now extremely desirable. 
 
Sourced in France and curated by Paris-based Vivienne Birt for Chateau Love, this full jewelry set embodies the timeless sophistication and meticulous artistry that defines our carefully selected chateau-worthy collection of luxurious antique and vintage jewelry.
