I have a lovely .63ct OEC, 5.4mm and H VS. I would like to use it in a pendant, and almost pulled the trigger before christmas on a design, but chickened out. I like a MUCH more substantial neck presence that this lone diamond can give. Ideally I like "coverage" in the 10mm+ range. So I am looking for ideas and inspiration for a pendant design that involves a larger gemstone and the diamond -- the gemstone to be chosen later, so I am open to color and chape. I don't like a drop style necklace that dangles, somehow that feels too precious to me. But otherwise I am lost!

Any ideas?

Oh and here are a couple of crummy pics since I know the bling sharks will be after them. Forgive the fuzziness.

Very pretty stone! Well, unless you have a diamond and then the dangle with colored stone in something beneath it, I can't quite see how you can do it! I save pendant designs and I just don't have anything except ones with colored stone melee. (You could do a non-dangle by having the round bezeled on top and the colored stone bezeled on the bottom, though. Let me look.)

Ok i would also love to see pics of lovely dangle styles then :)) maybe something will woo me.

Ooops!! I didn't read your whole ask. Ignore.

That is pretty! I do think it would be much easier to get to 10mm with designs like this! I have more similar to this saved.
 
That is such a pretty diamond. It'd be a shame to clutter it w/too many surrounding stones. I like the gold bezel DS posted.
 
I love how the universe works!

I have been thinking about pendant designs for something that i now found out that i want to have, changed to i NEED to have.... :love: :naughty:

So, thanks for this thread!

cant seem to open the julia kay website, but will try later on.. i really like the one that charmpoo posted.
 
I believe the diamond in the inspiration picture was only a bit bigger than yours (.75-.85 range). I don't recall which, but my tourmaline was 8 or 9mm.

this design is similar to kismet's. in fact, this website has some interesting designs. i have picked two that i like. i know you dont like dangly stuff, but these are not so dangly, and just reread the brief you gave.. not quite what you described but can get some ideas?????

on the page below, it is the top right picture, my favourite at the moment as it is very different.

or this, which you can add other gems around it?

I know this doesn't make it bigger...but one of the prettiest pendant's I've seen was a graduated DBTY :naughty: . That could be your middle stone in a bezel... :Up_to_something:

it took me a while to find where I had tucked this picture away...

sorry - no idea where I saved it from (I was looking for rose cut ring setting inspiration)

but I thought the rose cut could be replaced with a CS??

not sure if it is possible to do this - but perhaps you could bezel that beauty now and then add the second stone later??
