3.01 GIA Round Brilliant Diamond Pendant Necklace 18k

This pendant necklace features a GIA-certified 3.01 carat round brilliant cut diamond with SI2 clarity and L color, set in a collet setting with 18 karat yellow gold and a black rhodium finish.

The round brilliant cut maximizes sparkle through 57 or 58 precisely angled facets that reflect light from multiple directions, creating the most fire and brilliance of any diamond cut. L color means the diamond has noticeable warmth—a light yellow tint visible to the eye—though the yellow gold setting helps harmonize with this tone rather than contrast it.

The black rhodium plating creates dramatic contrast against both the yellow gold and the diamond, making the stone appear brighter. The pendant hangs from a 14 karat yellow gold bead chain at 16 inches, positioning it at the collarbone where movement catches light throughout wear.
