Champagne Diamond Hexagon Halo Pendant | 0.30ct | Yellow Gold

A champagne diamond pendant with a halo of white diamonds, in yellow gold on a 9ct gold chain. The centre diamond is a pale champagne, a light warm brown. Around it, a halo of small white diamonds is set in a hexagon rather than the usual circle. The angled outline gives the pendant a slightly geometric, modern edge, and the white stones make the champagne centre look warmer by contrast.

Setting: Claw-set centre with hexagon halo
Chain: 9ct gold, included

About champagne diamonds
Most diamonds are valued for having as little colour as possible, but some are prized for having it. Champagne diamonds get their warm tone from tiny distortions in the crystal structure that formed under pressure deep in the earth. The colour ranges from pale straw through champagne to deep cognac. It's the same hard, brilliant stone as a white diamond, just with a softer, warmer look that suits everyday wear.

Hardness: 10 on the Mohs scale, the hardest of any gemstone. Easy to wear every day, but have the halo claws checked now and then.
Birthstone: April
