Bezel Set Diamond Necklace
Item #968Pendant Description
Black Pearl
The centerpiece of this pendant is an 11mm black Tahitian pearl with a wonderfully silky sheen. Its rich, dark surface displays hints of green, yellow, and orange, and it contrasts wonderfully with the diamonds above.
Tahitian pearls tend to grow larger than pearls from other parts of the world, making them quite sought after. The impressive size of this pearl makes it the perfect anchor for this pendant design, and the other elements of the piece were chosen to highlight its excellent proportions.
Pendant Design and Diamond Accents
Above the pearl, three princess cut diamonds are bezel set and then linked as if by a chain extending up from the top of the setting of the pearl. These diamonds are each oriented with their corners at the compass positions, and they taper slightly moving upward. Pendants
The bezel settings that surround them are also a bit wider than normal, creating a beautiful frame around each stone. The sparkle of the diamonds provides the perfect counterpoint to the soft matte surface of the pearl as well, adding a glamorous flair without dominating the piece.
Customization Options
If you’re interested in customizing this design, there are several good ways to begin. For instance, you could choose a specific pearl and then modify the other details of the design to complement its particular characteristics perfectly. Or you could decide to go with a pearl quite similar to this one, and then make some adjustments to the underlying design. 100% Satisfaction
Using round diamonds rather than princess cut, for instance, could change the look of this design dramatically, as could simply switching to rose or yellow gold for the metal. Choosing a different color gemstone to accent the pearl is an option as well, and sapphires in particular are available in many shades, so you can choose precisely the one you’re envisioning.
Customizing This Design
Any Joseph Jewelry item can be customized or used as the starting point for a new custom design. The gemstones, metal, proportions, setting style, surface details, and overall profile can be adjusted to better match your preferences, style, and budget.
Every custom piece begins with a conversation about what you want to create and what matters most to you. You work one-on-one with a designer to refine the concept, review the design direction, and create a detailed 3D CAD image of the item before it is made.
After the design is approved, we can create a wax model so you can review the piece physically. This step helps you evaluate scale, proportions, shape, and overall presence before final production begins.
Once the wax model is approved, our jewelers craft the finished piece with attention to structure, finish, stone security, and long-term wear. Each adjustment is reviewed carefully so the final item feels intentional, balanced, and made specifically for you.
You do not need to have every detail figured out before starting. If you like this item but want to change the stone, metal, size, shape, width, engraving, or overall style, we can guide those decisions through the custom design process.
Quality & Craftsmanship
At Joseph Jewelry, quality begins with the structure. We follow strict design and construction standards for metal thickness, weight, stone support, setting security, and long-term durability. These details help ensure the item is substantial enough for everyday wear while still maintaining a refined appearance.
We do not design custom jewelry to be unnecessarily thin or fragile. If a setting, band, gallery, or accent detail needs more support, we address it before production begins. The goal is to protect the stones, preserve the shape of the ring, and create a piece that can be worn confidently over time.
Gemstone selection is also part of our quality process. We help choose the center stone, side stones, and melee diamonds used in each ring, reviewing them for cut, color, clarity, consistency, and how well they fit the design. Even when a ring is designed around a specific budget, we maintain careful standards for the materials and craftsmanship that determine the quality of the finished piece.
Before completion, each custom piece is reviewed for proportion, comfort, stone security, finishing, and long-term wear.
Care & Warranty
All Joseph Jewelry custom pieces are supported by our lifetime warranty. We also provide long-term care, including complimentary cleaning and regular inspection, so your jewelry can be maintained properly over time.
Routine inspection is especially valuable for pieces worn every day. It allows the setting, stones, and overall structure to be checked as the jewelry is worn.
