The pendant holds 17 natural diamonds totaling 0.76 carats. The baguette diamonds are channel set around the outer ring, while round diamonds sit in prong settings, in H-I color and I1-I2 clarity.

What length is the chain and how does it close?

The pendant comes on an 18 inch cable chain that closes with a spring ring clasp, a small sprung circle that stays light and unobtrusive against the chain.

How much upkeep does the pendant need?

The pendant needs little upkeep beyond a soft cloth wipe now and then, and the rhodium plating shields the silver underneath. Keeping it away from chlorine and perfume, and storing it dry when not worn, covers the rest.

How to Care for Your Sterling Silver 3/4 Cttw Diamond Compass Medallion Pendant Necklace

1. Wipe the piece with a soft cloth after wearing to keep the rhodium-plated surface bright.
2. Store it dry and closed in a pouch or box to slow tarnishing of the sterling silver underneath.
3. Keep it away from chlorine and perfume, which can dull both the plating and the silver.
4. Avoid polishing compounds or dips, since they can thin the rhodium layer over time.
