Diamond Necklace

JoseeCL · Mar 2, 2017

I don't know if there's a thread already for diamond necklaces.... but I always love love love looking at diamond necklaces! Am I the only one???
I have a few. This is my favorite! It's a Vintage (inspired?) 18k WG. I can't remember the tcw but I think it was around .65 clean diamonds. The solitaire diamond is old mine cut not sure about the rest. I should have it appraised. I will someday. I love the delicateness of it with the leaf accents!
I'd love to see all of yours!!! Let's see those beauties!

This is mine, but I have to admit - I'm having it dismantled in the next month or so (as soon as my jeweler has the time). I'll have another one in time, but different to this. It has 12 x 10 pt stones, one .53 cushion, a .47ct pear, and a 3 pt stone in between the two of them. So - 2.23ctw. The stones are all G/H and are all VS/SI stones. Actually, I think they're all G colored VS stones - except for the cushion, which is an H SI2.

Very nice! Very unique!
May I ask why you are having it dismantled? What do you plan to do with it?

This was my wedding-day necklace.

This is mine. I wear the pendant every day but usually just on a white gold chain. The diamond necklaces is 5.0 ctw and the pendant's main stone is a 1.5 ct K SI2.

I don't know why the photos always flip. Sorry.

Hi Josee

I'm not fond of the pairs of round brilliants going up the chain. I think I would like a LOT more of them - but smaller and evenly spaced right along the chain. And I want to increase the size of the pear; I have a pear double the size of the one in this necklace and might use it instead. Basically, I just want to change all the proportions.

I don't really have any need for an ornate diamond necklace, but I do love looking at them! So as a compromise I had mine made - which is understated and far more casual than your normal diamond necklace - but it's still not scratching the itch for me. So I'm going to pull it apart and start again, I think; as it is, I believe I've worn this one twice in about 5 years.

Ok... here is another one I wanna share with you lovely ladies

This is a necklace & bracelet set that funny enough I bought separately from 2 different sellers! How amazing is that! Both are 14k white gold the necklace is 1 1/2 carat and the bracelet 2 carats, the bracelet is also missing one of the little diamond dangle on it. It is stamped "AV" Does anyone have any idea what that might stand for? I'm thinking it's the designer's mark.
Any thoughts?
