Choosing a solitaire pendant isn’t as you might imagine, especially if you want to buy a diamond solitaire pendant. Therefore, we have a simple guide to help you buy the perfect pendant that aligns with your style!
The following are a few questions you must ask yourself before and while choosing the diamond solitaire pendant.
What type of diamond is suitable for a daily wear pendant?
For solitaire pendants, the diamond is the star! Therefore, the choice of diamond is crucial. Many things affect the visual appeal and price of the diamond. So, consider the following factors when selecting a diamond for your solitaire diamond.
- Shape: Diamonds are available in oval, round, emerald, cushion, square, pear, marquise, princess, and many more shapes. Each of these diamonds has a unique visual appeal. You can choose a more comfortable shape that aligns with your style.
- Color: The diamond color is determined by a grading system ranging from D to Z, D being colorless and Z being yellowish. Ideally, you should have a diamond between the D to J range for a bright, near-colorless diamond.
- Clarity: Clarity refers to the defects on the diamond. The diamonds with VS1 to SI2 are ideal because they have slight defects that are invisible to the naked eye. They are affordable and sturdy.
- Cut: The diamond with a better cut will shine brighter. The cut grade ranges from excellent to poor. The diamond with an excellent, very good, or good rating is perfect for a solitaire pendant.
What size diamond is best for an everyday solitaire pendant?
Confused about whether you should choose a bigger diamond or a smaller one? We get it! While bigger is better, it can be a hassle to wear it every day. Therefore, choose a small diamond with better quality that shines bright. The ideal size ranges between 0.25 to 0.50 carats. However, if you still love a bigger diamond, you can choose a 0.75-carat or a sturdy setting.
Which setting is the best for an everyday diamond pendant solitaire?
The setting is the most critical part of a diamond solitaire pendant. The setting represents how the stone will be fitted on the pendant. For an everyday pendant, you should choose a sturdy setting. The following are the best types of diamond settings for everyday diamond jewellery for women:
- Prong: Prongs are a classic setting that holds the diamond through 3-4 claws. It is a sturdy and popular option. The number of ‘claws’ can change based on the diamond’s size.
- Bezel: The Bezel setting encases the diamond from the sides. It is one of the safest settings for daily wear of a diamond solitaire pendant.
Which type of chain is best for a solitaire pendant?
The chain with a pendant can make or break the visual appeal of the solitaire pendant. Therefore, choose a pendant based on your comfort and the pendant’s design.
The following are the types of chains ideal for solitaire diamond pendants:
- Cable chain: Strong, lightweight, and suitable for everyday wear.
- Box chain: It contains a small box-like design, ideal for everyday wear, and adds a charming touch to the pendant.
- Wheat chain: The wheat grains add a unique touch to the pendant.
- Twist chain: Intricate design for an alluring pendant.
What should be the length of a daily wear diamond pendant solitaire?
If you want your diamond pendant solitaire to show, choose an 18-inch chain. It will be set right near the collarbone. However, if you want to create a chain stack, choose a 20-inch chain. If you need a short chain with a pendant, you can try a 16-inch chain as well.
What design is best for daily wear of a solitaire pendant?
A solitaire pendant doesn’t mean a boring single stone with prongs; there are many unique designs available in diamond pendant solitaire. The solitaire diamond can be the center of a halo design made with gold, drop design, floral & geometric pattern, or part of initials made using metal.
