Classic 'B' Initial Diamond Pendant

Two stacked bowls give the letter B its balance, and this initial pendant sets that symmetry in light. 16 round cut diamonds are prong set along the spine and around both curves, following the letterform so the outline reads clearly even at a distance. The open settings leave every stone clear on all sides, keeping the shape defined by brilliance rather than by the weight of metal. Crafted in 14 karat yellow gold, the warm surround gives the letter a soft glow against the skin. Of all the letters, the B encloses the most space, and leaving those two bowls open rather than filled is what keeps the pendant from feeling heavy at the throat. It hangs from a cable chain 1.00 MM in 18 inches with a lobster lock and extenders at 16" & 17", and is finished with a total weight of 1/3 Ctw.
