Our experts will take the information you share about your style and feature preferences, and we’ll use it to develop a unique design in CAD. We’ll modify this based on your feedback, and we won’t cast anything in metal until you’ve given your explicit approval for us to do so. Design Your Own Pendant
Center Quartz and Diamond Halo
At the heart of this piece is a 6.75 carat round green quartz that’s checkerboard cut and double prong set. The top of the quartz is a dome that extends outward, and the arrangement of facets across its surface is what gives the cut its name and distinctive look.
A scalloped halo made up of split prong set small white diamonds surrounds the quartz, and this gives the piece as a whole a floral feel. The inner margin of the halo is lined with milgrain beading for some extra definition and vintage flair. Pendants
Milgrain and Filigree
Behind the main body of the pendant, a filigree basket that utilizes flowing scrolls to create shapes reminiscent of butterflies provides protection and and added intricacy. The design is accented by milgrain here as well, and a line of split prong set diamonds runs up the front of the bale as a finishing touch.
