Description
This gorgeous pendant features a black Tahitian pearl accented with a bezel and shared prong set diamonds on the bale above. It was created for a client from Bellevue, WA, and we can work with you to modify it in any number of ways. The design is rather minimalist in order to allow the mesmerizing beauty of the pearl to take center stage, but there is still plenty of room for you to put your own distinctive mark on it.

Whether you’d like to initiate the custom design process by visiting our Bellevue, WA showroom personally or by reaching out to us online, our experts have the skills and experience to produce a gorgeous piece of heirloom-quality custom jewelry you’ll always cherish.

Tahitian Pearl
The centerpiece of this pendant is a round black Tahitian pearl that measures about 11mm in diameter. As with most Tahitian pearls, it’s not entirely black, but exhibits various red, yellow, and brown highlights depending on the viewing angle. This makes the minimalist setting a great benefit, as it allows a clear view of the pearl from all sides and allows its natural beauty to shine through. Pendants
Setting and Bale
The pearl attaches to the bale only through a small circle at the top. Above this, a round diamond is bezel set, and that setting attaches to the marquise-shaped bale itself. The bale is lined with shared prong set small round diamonds that cover its entire front surface, adding a bit of glamorous sparkle and a hint of classical flair.
The sides of the bale are open, allowing the chain to pass directly through the middle. This arrangement means that the pendant can move freely on the chain, and it gives the impression of a seamless integration between bale and chain.
