A faceted emerald brings a note of deep green into this minimalist pendant. The stone sits centrally, so nothing distracts from it - the silver setting stays narrow and discreet, while the facets catch the light with every movement of the head. Emerald green has long been associated with balance and calm, and with this precision of cut the effect is clear, never showy.

Only a small share of the sorted raw material makes it into the finished piece - selection is strict, since purity and depth of colour are what matter most in the stone. Silver and precious metal prices are rising, and good emeralds are becoming harder to find, so buying at this price makes sense today. The setting is made of refined European 925 silver, pure and free of allergenic metal additives, so the pendant can be worn without worrying about skin irritation. A rhodium layer adds hardness and scratch resistance, keeping the shine intact for a long time while the silver stays free of tarnish. The piece bears the French maker's mark, which attests to the origin of the metal.

A pendant like this pairs well with romantic styling - a lace top with an open neckline or a dress in a small pastel print gives it room to let the emerald stand out against the skin. A shirt collar left open at the neck or a simple round-neck top also let the stone stay the centre of attention. Weighing just 0.8 g, the pendant sits light and doesn't weigh down the chain, which works equally well by day and in the evening.
