Buying guide

What a solitaire pendant is

A solitaire is a single stone with nothing competing for attention. On a gold necklace with a solitaire lab-grown diamond, the setting and bail are kept small so the lab-grown diamond does the work. Most designs hold the stone in prongs, which let in the most light. A few use a bezel rim that wraps the edge for protection and a smooth outline, and some designs suspend the stone in a tension setting.

Choosing a shape and bail

  • Round: the most sparkle and the classic choice for a solitaire pendant.
  • Oval, pear and marquise: longer shapes that point down the neckline and look larger for their weight.
  • Princess, cushion, radiant, emerald and asscher: square and rectangular outlines, from bright to clean step-cut facets.
  • Heart: a softer, romantic outline.

The bail is the loop the chain passes through. A split bail or V bail grips the top of the stone, while a tall bar bail adds a little height above it.

Carat weight, grade and price

Most designs offer 1 to 9 carats total weight, and a few also come in smaller sizes from 0.25 carat or in half-carat steps. Some designs let you pick D, E or F color and VVS1, VVS2 or VS1 clarity. 14K gold has more gold than 10K; 10K is slightly harder and costs less. Each gold solitaire pendant starts from about $625, and most are between about $800 and $850 at their smallest option.
