Pave Emerald Pendant 1.18 Ct., Platinum 950

This pendant presents a study in enduring refinement, designed to remain relevant across generations, and to complement both formal and everyday wardrobes. Set entirely in platinum 950, the piece combines durable precious metal with classical proportions to create a look that is balanced and restrained, yet unmistakably luxurious. The central green emerald offers a vivid focal point, and the surrounding design frames the gem in a way that enhances its natural radiance without overpowering it. The Natural Emerald Company offers this example as a representation of how quality materials and considered design produce a piece that will not date, and that will be appreciated for its intrinsic beauty over time.

The center gemstone is a natural round shaped emerald, weighing 1.18 carats, with dimensions of 6.88 by 6.81 by 4.27 millimeters, and executed in a mixed brilliant cut to optimize brilliance and depth. The gem displays intense color saturation, a clarity grading of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and an excellent polish, all of which contribute to a visual presence that is both lively and transparent. The emerald originates from Zambia, a source known for producing stones with strong green tones and attractive saturation, and the stone bears a standard enhancement, a common treatment used to improve clarity and stability while preserving the gem's character. Together these attributes produce an emerald that reads as natural and pure, with the kind of balanced color and light performance that is sought by collectors and connoisseurs.

The mounting is crafted in platinum 950, chosen for its strength, hypoallergenic properties, and its ability to maintain lustrous white tones over time. The emerald is presented within a halo of natural white round diamonds, with a combined approximate weight of 0.21 carats, clarity grade VS, and a color grade of F and G, selected to provide a crisp, luminous contrast to the green center. The halo arrangement increases perceived size and visual impact, while the precision of the setting secures each stone and allows maximum light return. Finishing details include careful polishing of the platinum surfaces and precise seatings for the diamonds, resulting in clean lines and a refined profile when viewed from any angle. The overall proportions were conceived to offer wearable elegance, allowing the pendant to sit comfortably when worn and to photograph with consistent color balance.

Care and long term considerations are straightforward, informed by the materials and treatments used. Platinum 950 requires minimal maintenance beyond occasional professional cleaning, and the standard enhancement applied to the emerald is stable under normal wear conditions, though like all colored gemstones, the emerald benefits from avoiding prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals and extreme temperature changes. A soft cloth routine for daily attention and periodic inspections for the setting are recommended to maintain the piece in optimal condition. The Natural Emerald Company stands behind the provenance and specifications provided, and documentation can be supplied to confirm the origin, weights, and grading observations. This pendant is intended as a lasting investment in design and gem quality, a wearable object whose restraint and attention to material integrity ensure it will remain a relevant and valued piece for decades.
