Platinum 950 Vedic Necklace Setting

This custom made necklace setting is offered in a choice of 14K rose gold, 14K white gold, 18K white gold, 14K yellow gold, 18K yellow gold, and platinum 950, with center stones available as sapphire, ruby, emerald, or other fine gemstones. One optional aesthetic draws from ancient inspired design language, incorporating intricate, symbolic patterns and subtle spiritual motifs for a timeless, meaningful appearance that can be applied on request. The solitaire alternative presents a single, striking gemstone as the central focus, ideal for buyers who prefer a restrained, classic expression of color and light. The bezel option secures the stone with a smooth metal rim that encircles the gem, enhancing wearability and protecting the girdle while imparting a contemporary, polished silhouette. For an educated buyer the choice of metal and mounting affects both aesthetics and durability, with higher karat gold offering warmer tone and greater softness, and platinum providing superior strength and resistance to wear.

Gemstone grading and provenance are described with clarity to support confident selection, color intensity, cut quality, and clarity are primary determinants of value for colored stones. Sapphires are evaluated for hue, saturation, and presence of silk or rutile inclusions, with classic origins including Sri Lanka and Kashmir noted for distinct color profiles. Rubies are appraised for pigeon blood to purplish red tones, with Burmese and Mozambican provenance often commanding premiums. Emeralds are assessed for their rich green and typical internal characteristics, with Colombian and Zambian material recognized sources, and oil or resin treatments disclosed as standard practice. Clarity grades for colored gemstones emphasize eye clean versus heavily included material, and we recommend gemological reports for any high value stone. The design process begins with conceptual sketches that explore proportions, bezel thickness, and the balance between ornate motifs and negative space. Prototypes are produced in CAD and wax to verify scale, then cast and hand finished to achieve precise bezel walls or a refined solitaire prong profile. Each piece undergoes setting and polishing, with a final inspection that confirms secure seats, even metal finishes, and accurate alignment with the chosen gem specifications. Custom requests for symbolic patterning can be integrated into the setting, or a pared back solitaire or bezel treatment can be executed for a minimalist result, ensuring the piece aligns with both aesthetic preference and long term wearability.
