Meet Gloria. She’s a bit of a Frankenstein- I found the heart-shaped bezel first, then the diamond (not always easy with a vintage setting…), and then, the chain! It needed to be sturdy enough to balance with this bodacious beauty.

The bezel is 18k white gold- without the usual rhodium plating over, I have polished it with a matte finish so the color is less “white” than most white gold. The chain is 14k yellow gold, and the diamond is a hefty 1.59-carat heart. With a grade of I1 she’s got inclusions, yes, but they are clear/white (vs black which I find more noticeable to the eye). That said, she looks like a million bucks on with any outfit, and is being offered at a fabulous deal. I hope Gloria finds a deserving home for her future!
