Diamond Pendants

The price of a diamond pendant depends on the carat weight of the diamonds, the quality of the cut, their colour, clarity and number, the type of gold and the complexity of the design. In this collection, smaller gold diamond pendants start from around 209 Eur, while statement collier necklaces with a larger total diamond weight can cost several thousand euros. When choosing, it is worth considering not only the carat weight but also the quality of the piece and the certificates that confirm it.

A 0.50–1.00 ct diamond is often considered a versatile choice, as it has a noticeable sparkle yet remains comfortable for everyday wear. A single round 0.50 ct diamond measures approximately 5 mm in diameter, while a 1.00 ct diamond measures about 6.5 mm.

For a delicate piece of jewellery, 0.05–0.30 ct diamonds are ideal, while for a more striking accent you can choose a 0.50 ct or larger option. If a pendant has several diamonds, the stated carat weight usually refers to their total weight. The quality of the cut is especially important for sparkle, so it is worth prioritising it over the highest colour or clarity grade.

The most reliable way is to consult a jeweller or gemmologist, who will test the stone with professional equipment. It is also worth checking the jewellery’s certificate and documents. An electronic thermal diamond tester can help with an initial check, but some devices cannot distinguish a diamond from moissanite.

At home, you can try the fog test: when you breathe on a diamond, the mist should disappear quickly, as diamond disperses heat well. However, this test is not conclusive proof. The gold fineness confirms the composition of the metal, but not the authenticity of the diamond, so if in doubt a professional assessment is recommended.

Yes, a diamond pendant is perfect for everyday wear. Diamond is highly scratch-resistant, and jewellery worn around the neck knocks against hard surfaces less often than a ring or bracelet. Nevertheless, a strong impact can damage the stone, its setting or the chain.

For everyday wear, it is worth choosing a secure setting and a sturdy chain. It is recommended to remove the jewellery before sleeping, bathing, exercising or swimming. It can be cleaned regularly with warm water, mild soap and a soft brush, and it is a good idea to have the diamond setting checked by a jeweller once a year.

The best design depends on your personal style and the occasion. For everyday wear, the most versatile option is a minimalist single-diamond pendant or a delicate “eye” pendant. For more sparkle, you can choose a design with several diamonds, for example from the “Blossom”, “Melody” or “Dream” collections.

Letters, numbers, zodiac signs and hearts add a personal touch to the jewellery, while crosses suit those looking for a meaningful symbol. White gold designs look modern, yellow gold adds classic warmth, and rose gold creates a soft, romantic look. Whatever the design, it is important to choose a secure diamond setting and a chain suited to the weight of the pendant.
