My imagination is just not working at the moment! Does anyone have the skills to add a second thin gold bezel to this setting using photoshop? Even kind of rough? My visualisation skills are shocking at the moment & I’m trying to decide between a single or double bezel for my pendant.. IMG_8019.jpeg
 
I don't, but are you sure you want the chain attached at the 3 and 9 positions? I would think it would flip more than if it were attached at the 2 and 10 positions (unless it is going to be very snug on your neck).

This is a bracelet my jeweller made so it’s just an example of how the chain/bezel would look on my necklace. For my necklace, the chain will definitely be attached at the 2/10 positions
 
Double halo, inner bezel white metal outer yellow. Winner!
 
I am not a fan of the white inner. It implies a sense of trying to trick the eye where a double halo in yellow gold is all aesthetic.
 
Great idea! But I think I prefer both bezels in gold. The white gold inner reminds me of an illusion setting a little bit. Unless I decide to do the whole thing in platinum instead of rose gold a bit like this…

My daily jewellery -

Left hand/wrist: TT Rose gold & stainless steel Rolex, platinum wedding set

Right hand/wrist: either a stack of Cartier Love & JUCs (all small versions, all rose gold) or I wear them one at a time

Either rose gold JUC diamond pendant or a platinum plated sim emerald cut diamond (bought to see if I liked the style & I do!).

So I wear a nice mix of rose gold & platinum currently

The white gold inner bezel makes the diamond look larger. I had a solitaire bezel pendant years ago like that. However, personal choice and all so get what makes you happy.
 
Just my opinion - I like both bezels in the same metal, and I think it works better in a warmer metal, be that yellow gold like the picture or rose gold to match your other daily-wear jewelry. Somehow the contrast of the two bezels in the warmer metal set up just the right contrast to the stone to my eye in a way that white metal wouldn't.
 
Thanks for the help everyone! Visited my jeweller yesterday and he had a very similar piece which helped me determine that actually a single bezel was enough. Husband also wasn’t very keen on the double bezel idea. My necklace will be ready in about 3 weeks but unfortunately I agreed to wait until our 10th wedding anniversary to see it!
 
I like the inner white when it is milgrained and the outer yellow is polished smooth gold. It’s an illusion, but a nice one. But obviously all gold is nice too.

Did you decide to do it in YG, White metal, or Rose????
 
Decided on rose gold to match my daily bracelets & watch!

Good choice. I was going to suggest that but since you only really asked about yellow or platinum, I wasn't sure if you'd want to do that. But with your other regular jewelry, it makes the most sense to me. When it's finished, please come back and post photos.
