The halo of small diamonds is set slightly lower than the centre stone. This isn't just a random choice; it creates visual depth, making the main pear-shaped diamond appear to float above the setting and catch more light as you move.

This is a pear-shaped pendant built around a single, larger natural diamond. A tight halo of thirteen smaller diamonds follows its teardrop curve perfectly. The stones are held in a highly polished platinum setting which connects to a simple, tapered bail. It all hangs from a fine, 16-inch link chain. The whole piece is small, delicate, and very bright.

We cast this pendant in solid PT900 platinum, which is 90% pure platinum blended with other alloys for durability. It’s a dense metal, so it holds up well to daily wear and resists scratches better than gold. Platinum is also naturally hypoallergenic, which means it’s one of the safest choices if you have sensitive skin. Its cool white lustre is the metal's natural colour, so it won’t fade or require re-plating to keep the diamonds looking bright.

People usually pick this pendant for its proportions. It’s a classic halo design, but the 8mm height makes it quite delicate and easy to wear. It sits right at the hollow of the throat without feeling heavy, making it a solid choice if you want something you can put on and forget about.
