0.96 Ct. Emerald Bezel Necklace, 14K Yellow Gold

This elegant necklace from The Natural Emerald Company showcases a beautifully transparent 0.96 carat emerald, cut in a classic emerald cut with dimensions of 6.50 x 4.20 x 3.00 mm, set entirely in 14K yellow gold. The stone has a clarity grade of included when evaluated at eye level, a rich dark color intensity, and an excellent polish. The enhancement is standard, a common and accepted treatment for emeralds that improves durability and appearance, and the gem originates from Zambia. The emerald sits in a protective bezel setting that hugs its edges and corners, offering a clean, modern look while also shielding the stone from knocks and snags. The warm tone of 14K yellow gold complements the deep green of the stone, creating a timeless combination that works well for both casual and dressy outfits.

Beyond the beauty of the center stone, the chain construction makes this piece an ideal choice for everyday wear. The chain uses elongated paperclip style links that are larger and more robust than delicate cable links, so they spread stress over more metal and are less prone to breaking at a single weak point. Compared to very fine link styles that can kink or stretch with daily wear, the paperclip links resist kinking and tend to retain their shape, while still feeling light and comfortable on the neck. In comparison to heavier chains like rope or thick curb, this style offers a balanced strength without unnecessary bulk, and it pairs well with the bezel setting that minimizes catching. Because the necklace is crafted in 14K gold, it combines lasting durability with a bright, wearable color, 14K being harder and better suited to frequent wear than higher karat golds that are softer. Taken together, the robust paperclip chain, the protective bezel mount, and the secure setting in 14K yellow gold create a necklace that will perform well day after day, offering both longevity and understated elegance. If you are looking for a practical yet refined piece that showcases a genuine Zambian emerald, this necklace from The Natural Emerald Company is a perfect everyday choice.
