18K White Gold Pave Pendant Setting

This custom made pendant setting is engineered for precision and versatility, offered in 14K rose gold, 14K white gold, 18K white gold, 14K yellow gold, 18K yellow gold, and platinum 950, the design accommodates center stones such as sapphire, ruby, emerald, or other fine gemstones, and is compatible with multiple faceting styles including brilliant round, oval mixed cut, cushion brilliant, and step cut variations, our craftsmen specify ideal proportions to optimize light return and color saturation, for sapphires we recommend medium to medium dark tone with clean saturation to showcase blue dispersion, for rubies a vivid red with strong saturation and minimal heating treatment is preferred, for emeralds eye clean material with fine faceting and careful girdle finishing reduces chipping risk during setting, the pave option places small diamonds or gemstones closely together using precision micro bead setting techniques to create a seamless surface of scintillation, each stone is calibrated to 0.01 to 0.05 carat range depending on pendant diameter, pitch and crown angles are considered to avoid light leakage, the halo option frames a center stone with a continuous ring of calibrated melee, prong profiling and spacing are calculated to enhance perceived center size while maintaining secure retention, ring height and gallery clearance are engineered to balance brilliance and wearability, the bezel option employs a smooth metal rim that fully or partially encircles the gemstone, the bezel can be high polish or satin finished depending on metal selection, internal seat machining is executed to a tolerance of plus or minus 0.05 millimeter to ensure snug contact with the pavilion, this approach increases longevity and protects vulnerable girdles, as an alternative design direction an ancient inspired setting option is available featuring intricate, symbolic patterning and micro engraving inspired by classical motifs, those motifs are rendered with fine line engraving and selective oxidization to create depth, these motifs can be applied selectively so the pendant remains modern or gently historic depending on preference.

The design inspiration blends architectural minimalism with organic references, the circular motif evokes continuity and balance while the choice of halo and pave detailing amplifies light interaction and perceived scale, the bezel finish lends understated modernity and robust wear characteristics for daily use, construction employs CNC milled blanks for dimensional accuracy followed by hand setting and final hand polish to ensure each melee is flush and secure, our quality control inspects stone to setting interface under 10x magnification and tests clasp and chain integration for smooth articulation, customers may specify exact stone grades, metal purity, and whether they prefer the ancient inspired motif to be applied, please advise if you want that option so we can present CAD visuals and sample engraving patterns, we provide care recommendations for different gemstones, and we welcome technical questions about stone proportions, setting tolerances, or finish options to ensure the pendant meets both aesthetic and performance expectations.
