Diamond Necklaces and Diamond Pendants
First of all, it’s worth taking a quick look at the difference between diamond necklaces and diamond pendants if this is a piece of jewellery you’re planning on buying.
Diamond Necklace – A diamond necklace is worn around the neck and has a diamond or diamonds already set within the piece.
Diamond Pendant – A diamond pendant is typically hung from a chain necklace and can be easily removed to be worn elsewhere.
One thing to remember is that the diamond or diamonds will be the centrepiece of the jewellery and in the eye-line of anyone the wearer comes into contact with, so the quality of the diamond is important. It will be much more noticeable than a diamond ring, for example.
Diamond Necklaces
Diamond necklaces are classic pieces that evoke thoughts of royalty and celebrity. If you’re looking for a statement piece of jewellery then this could be the way to go. Typically a diamond necklace will have several diamonds set within it making it the more expensive of the two options. The diamonds could also be paired with other gemstones.
Famous examples of diamond necklaces include the one Napoleon gave to his wife on the birth of their son, of which there are many portraits of her wearing and is currently housed in an American museum.
Diamond Pendants
When it comes to diamond pendants there are lots of different styles to choose from. Typically a pendant hangs from a chain and while you can buy just the pendant itself, buying the chain at the same time means you ensure the two work perfectly well together. Shorter chains give a more formal look whereas longer chains are more casual.
Diamond pendants have a range of different setting types which include three-pronged, four-pronged, pave setting and bezel setting. The diamond itself can also be cut in many different shapes including heart, pear, oval, round and princess.
Diamond pendants make a great option for lots of reasons. The chain can be replaced should it break and it can also be changed if the wearer requires a different length to go with a particular outfit.
As the pendant is detachable it can also be worn on other parts of the body such as on a bracelet or an anklet making this option much more versatile.
Whatever type of diamond necklace you choose it is sure to be a well-received gift for any occasion throughout the year.
