Diamond by the yard

Warm and versatile, this 18k-gold-plated cubic zirconia necklace sets solitaire stones at intervals along a forty-two-inch chain, the Diamond by the Yard idea in a gilded key. It is a signed Lauren G Adams piece made to layer or stand alone.

Its .925 sterling silver base takes an 18k gold plating and stays nickel- and lead-free, finished with a lobster-claw clasp. At this length it falls to the mid-chest, easy to knot or stack with a shorter pendant.
