Diamond Pendant Necklace Styles & Settings

A Connection to the Soul

Diamond pendants and necklaces have been worn by both men and women of various cultures for centuries. 

They were once considered more than ornamental jewelry, communicating a person’s social status, allegiance, or identity. Often hanging close to the heart, they were considered the seat of the soul and provided protection or power to the wearer.

Today, they are a perfect expression of love, admiration, and personality. 

With Brian Gavin Diamonds, you’ll find a stunning variety of custom diamond pendants in elegant designs, both classic and contemporary. 

Carefully crafted to Brian Gavin’s exacting standards and craftsmanship, and set with the highest quality Brian Gavin Signature or select diamonds, you’ll find diamond pendants in both timeless and contemporary settings.

Solitaire Pendants

Our solitaire pendants feature a single diamond, gracefully suspended from a chain. As the French word for ‘alone’ suggests, the singularity of the stone symbolizes simplicity and elegance, and an unrivaled love. 

Shining without distractions, the gemstone is perfectly highlighted and is a timeless option that works well with both casual and formal outfits.

4-Prong Pendants

4-prong pendants see the diamond held securely by four metal prongs, in a wonderfully balanced manner. Allowing for maximum light exposure to the stone, this luxurious look works with any outfit and keeps the gems safe for everyday wear. 

4-prong diamond pendants work with almost any diamond shape and layer beautifully with other necklaces.

6-Prong Pendants

The 6-prong pendant is a suitable option for larger carat stones (usually above 2ct), to carefully and securely secure the stone for everyday use. Featuring six evenly spaced metal prongs, it creates an elegant balance between sparkle, safety, and symmetry.

Martini Settings

Martini diamond pendant necklace settings use a minimalist, three-prong setting that looks like a martini glass when viewed from side-on. An ultra-sleek and modern aesthetic is created, as the gemstone rests low and close to the chain. 

This is the perfect pendant choice for a flash and elegant appearance that best suits round brilliant or oval diamonds.

FAQs: Diamond Pendants, Necklaces, and Chains

How can I choose the best diamond pendant?

Like with any jewelry and diamond setting, it’s all about personal preference. However, we advise you to consider the practicality of the chain and setting for your lifestyle and personality. When selecting a diamond, remember to consider the 4Cs (color, carat, clarity, and cut). Cut is the most important if you’re prioritising sparkle. 

Can I customize my pendant?

Yes, Brian Gavin Diamonds welcomes you to customize your pendant (including diamond stone, setting, and chain). 

How do I pair a pendant with a chain?

We recommend pairing a pendant with a chain by matching proportions, style, and metal. Go for a chain thickness that complements the pendant, without overpowering it.
