Pave Emerald Pendant 1.33 Ct., 18K White Gold

Emeralds have been treasured through the ages as symbols of renewal, wisdom, and refined taste, worn by pharaohs, emperors, and collectors who sought a connection to the past. This pendant brings that same sense of history into a modern wardrobe, anchored by a transparent 1.33 carat emerald cut green emerald, measuring 7.88 x 5.71 x 3.90 mm, with vivid color saturation and an excellent polish. The clarity is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and the stone has received standard enhancement consistent with traditional gem care. Set entirely in platinum 950, the piece benefits from the metal's cool white tone and enduring strength, creating a luminous stage for the emerald and the surrounding white round natural diamonds, which total approximately 0.27 carats with clarity VS and a color grade of F or G. At The Natural Emerald Company we have crafted this pendant to celebrate the storied legacy of emerald jewelry while presenting a gemstone that speaks in pure, modern color.

Classic jewelers have long favored the emerald cut for its elegant step facets and architectural poise, attributes that made the style a favorite during the Art Deco era when geometry and light were celebrated in equal measure. This pendant honors that lineage by centering an emerald cut stone whose clean lines recall those grand periods of design, while surrounding it with a refined halo of round diamonds that echo the cluster and halo motifs of Victorian and Edwardian settings. The result is familiar and reassuring, like a treasured heirloom, yet it reads as wholly contemporary through the restraint of the halo, the crispness of the platinum setting, and the precision of the mounting. The interplay between the emerald cut face up clarity and the scintillation of the small white diamonds offers a conversation between color and light that feels both classically elegant and distinctly of today.

The craftsmanship behind this pendant bridges centuries of technique with current standards of gem setting. Platinum 950 provides a secure, enduring bezel that protects the emerald while allowing its deep green to command attention, and the profile of the pendant has been designed to sit close to the neckline for everyday wear or special occasion elegance. The white round diamonds are graded VS in clarity and F or G in color, attributes that ensure the halo reads bright white against the rich green center, enhancing perceived color and sharpening the overall silhouette. The emerald cut itself intentionally emphasizes color over brilliance, offering windows into the stone and revealing the vivid saturation that distinguishes fine Zambian material. The dimensions of 7.88 by 5.71 by 3.90 mm yield a balanced presence on a variety of chain lengths, and the excellent polish enhances the step facets so that each movement reveals a new angle of depth.

This pendant from The Natural Emerald Company is designed to be a modern classic, a piece that will sit comfortably within a jewelry collection passed down through generations. It is ideal for someone who values historical continuity and seeks a jewel that will remain relevant as fashions evolve. For those interested in personalization we invite inquiries about chain length, certificate documentation, and bespoke presentation. Routine care is simple, using gentle warm soapy water and a soft brush, and avoiding harsh chemicals or steam to preserve the integrity of a traditionally enhanced emerald.
