The baguette-cut zircon is set sideways, so it lays flat just below the hollow of your throat. We set it this way, held only at the two short ends, so that light can pass straight through the stone from every other angle.

A single, horizontal baguette-cut zircon is the focus. Its step-cut facets create clean, geometric flashes of light rather than a scattered sparkle. It’s held in a solid 14-karat gold channel setting that caps the two short ends, leaving the long sides completely open. The fine cable chain runs directly through loops on the setting itself, so the stone can't flip over and always stays centred on your neck. The gold has a high-polish finish.

We make this from solid 14-karat rose gold, not plated or gold-filled. It’s 58.3% pure gold mixed with alloys like copper, which gives the metal its distinct warmth and colour. This also adds durability, which means you don't have to be too precious with it. Solid gold won't turn your skin green or wear off over time. The stone is a zircon, a natural mineral that's precision-cut into a baguette shape to show off its clean, glassy clarity.

This is for someone who wants a simple solitaire but is tired of round stones. The horizontal baguette sits low and flat against the collarbone. Because it's so minimal and linear, it layers well with other chains without getting tangled or looking cluttered. It's a clean line of light.
