Hey everyone. I finally am getting around to posting this.

When we went to our jewelers to have them re-design my ering and design our bands, my DH had them also design a matching two tone celtic diamond necklace that he could give me on our wedding day.

It came out awesome! Its 14K white and yellow gold, the yellow gold is brushed just like our wedding bands and it is hung on a 1.5mm white gold wheat chain. With a marquise and a pear diamond. These diamonds were inherited when my Aunt passed away and it was really great to be able to use them in something.
The marquise I know the stats and it is 0.42 VVS1 D color. The pear I dont have the stats on but its somewhere around 0.7, but not a great cut. DH wants to upgrade the pear for our 5 anniversary, so we will see.

I know some of you have seen some of these pics in all my wedding shots, but I really wanted to share a more detailed post on the necklace because I love it so much.

The first is the final CAD:

Last one showing all of it! Its after dancing though, so its hanging a bit strange. Unfortunately this did happen a bit, but I think that is with all collar type necklaces.

Thank you for looking.

What a beautifully designed necklace truly sentimental, its stunning and you looked great in your wedding photos!
 
Aww, it''s beautiful! How sweet!
 
Great design.
 
Very pretty design! Congrats.
 
Its lovely!

You can get chains that are somehow less bendy, almost like formed metal but with a little give. That might help the positioning thing.
 
I love the design of the necklace.

Gorgeous necklace, and you looked so beautiful on your wedding day! I love the red trim on your dress!

Thank you everyone! Im very pleased with the necklace, but its not an everyday piece. We looked into getting a more rigid chain for it to be mounted to, but I didn''t like the way it looked as much, so it was back to the wheat....
