Product Insights
The Graziella Choker by Vivienne Westwood is a handmade-in-Britain entry into the brand's collectibles, priced at 495 CAD and in stock. Its orb motif, originally a 1986 Prince Charles parody turned brand logo and cultural icon through manga *Nana* and TikTok, anchors the design. The choker features Swarovski crystals and mother-of-pearl beads hand-strung for even tension on a fixed 15-inch double band with a 21 mm pendant, offering a high neckline fit. A hand-fitted magnet clasp secures the pendant but can detach if bumped; beads may chip on impact and strands can break if caught. Compared to alternatives from Jenny Bird, Klas, and Bluboho, this is the only one with Swarovski and mother-of-pearl, and vintage resale values exceed $2,000.
