A classic diamond pendant makes a beautiful gift. A jewelry wardrobe staple, it looks right with any outfit and will never go out of style. This elegant pendant highlights a single princess-cut diamond, with a weight of 1/10 carat, showcased in a 4-prong basket setting of 14 karat white gold. A polished split bale secures the diamond to an 18-inch white gold rope chain that fastens with a spring ring clasp.My husband recently purchased this necklace for me as a First Anniversary gift. When he opened the package to give it to me his jaw dropped. He couldn't believe how incredibly small it was. I honestly wasn't too impressed with it either. (I don't even like big, extravangant jewlery. I like stuff small and simple, but this was miniscule.)
The diamond pendant is comparatively the size of the kind of earring studs that are used to pierce the ears of infants. That is to say, it is about 1/4 the size of the rubber eraser on the end of my No. 2 pencil! As for the chain, it feels cheap and fragile. It is for this reason that I will only wear it for a special occasion. If someone wore this regularly, they would surely break the chain.
I think this isn't even worth the time, money, or unavoidable disappointment. Go ahead and slurge for something a little bigger.
The only thing worth commending Amazon on this necklace is that when it had been stolen off our doorstep, Amazon shipped us out a new one free of charge and it wasn't even Amazon's fault that UPS just left it there, (in the hall of an apartment complex, no less.)
