Diamond-Solitaires

Diamond solitaires are the classic symbol of fine jewelry. The simple setting of one diamond generously displays the world's most precious gemstone. Although diamond solitaire settings are more common in rings, many diamond necklaces also feature this design. You'll want at least one diamond solitaire necklace in your jewelry collection; these necklaces are as versatile as they are beautiful. Start your search for beautiful diamonds at Overstock.com. Our jewelry store offers a wide selection of diamond solitaire necklaces at prices to match any budget.

A diamond necklace really is your best friend in the jewelry box. Designed as a pendant, the diamond solitaire can be worn with a chic black dress for a dinner date, a flirty summer dress for a wedding, even with a nice blouse at the office. Diamond solitaires range in size from 1/10th of a carat to 2 full carats or greater. The round brilliant diamond cut is popular for diamond pendants, although pear and emerald shapes are common, too. A prong setting will hold the diamond securely while allowing light to pass through the stone. A bezel setting can make a small diamond appear larger. A diamond necklace made of lustrous yellow gold complements warmer skin tones. White gold or platinum diamond necklaces enhance the white sparkle of diamonds and look great against cooler skin tones. Regardless of the setting or the metal, the centerpiece of a solitaire pendant is the diamond, so it should be high quality. If you purchase the best diamond you can afford, you'll have a necklace you'll love for a lifetime.

As a reward for you or a gift for a loved one, a diamond solitaire necklace is a dazzling treasure. Diamond jewelry is also an investment, even at Overstock.com's fantastic prices.
