How to choose your diamond necklace?
The choice rests on the shape and the 4Cs (carat, colour, clarity, cut). For everyday sparkle, the solitaire pendant on a fine chain is the safe bet. For an exceptional effect, the diamond rivière lines up stones all around the neck. Choose the metal: white gold necklace to enhance the stones' whiteness, yellow gold necklace or rose gold necklace for a warmer contrast. Mind the length: 42-45 cm shows off a solitaire in the hollow of the neck. The setting (prong, bezel) affects brilliance. Always favour a certified diamond, a guarantee of quality and resale value.

Frequently asked questions
What do a diamond's 4Cs mean?
Carat (weight), colour (from exceptional white to tinted), clarity (presence of inclusions) and cut (polishing quality). These four criteria determine brilliance and value. Our experts in Nice and Monaco explain them with the stone in hand.
Solitaire or diamond rivière?
The solitaire pendant, more discreet, is worn daily. The rivière, which lines up diamonds, is for grand occasions. You can try both in store to decide.
Are your diamonds certified?
Yes, each diamond necklace comes with a certificate of authenticity detailing the 4Cs. It is essential for the warranty and resale value. Our certified jewellery after-sales service ensures follow-up.
Which metal best showcases a diamond?
18-carat white gold heightens the stone's whiteness and sparkle. Yellow or rose gold creates a warmer contrast. The choice depends on your complexion and the style you seek.
