Spectra Fine Jewelry 9.59 Carat Diamond-by-the-Yard Platinum Necklace

About the Item

Indulge in the enchanting world of "diamonds by the yard," a concept that exudes a whimsical charm, particularly for those with a passion for sewing and a penchant for exploring the trim shops nestled in the bustling Garment District of New York City. This imaginative term is credited to the iconic fashion designer Halston, who is said to have coined it in the 1970s upon encountering a remarkably versatile design: a yard-long chain adorned with diamonds, each meticulously spaced an inch apart, reminiscent of markings on a tape measure or yardstick. The lore suggests that Halston's close friend, Elsa Peretti, embraced the term for her own line. While the design has evolved over time, incorporating diverse diamond sizes, spacing, and chain lengths, its essence remains unchanged – wearable diamonds that seamlessly blend versatility with accessibility. Presenting a contemporary interpretation of this timeless concept, this particular piece measures two-thirds of a yard or 24 inches (60.96 cm), including a simple closure. Distinguished by its heightened density of diamonds, the necklace boasts an impressive count of nearly four diamonds per inch (specifically 3.75 diamonds per inch). Meticulously crafted by Spectra Fine Jewelry in 2019, it showcases 90 round brilliant-cut diamonds, totaling an estimated 9.59 carats. Each diamond, approximately 0.10 carat, is delicately set in individual platinum bezel settings, gracefully embracing the girdle and revealing both the table and pavilion. The diamonds are thoughtfully spaced and seamlessly connected by platinum links. This exquisite chain transcends the boundaries of fashion, offering a seamless complement to every item in your wardrobe and providing endless styling possibilities. Whether worn as an eternity necklace with diamonds gracefully encircling the neckline or layered with an array of other pieces, its brilliant yet understated style effortlessly enhances a woman's daily ensemble. From the simplicity of a white t-shirt and jeans to the sophistication of an evening gown, this diamond by the yard chain effortlessly elevates any look. With an approximate length of 24 inches, including the clasp, and a weight of around 11.16 grams, this platinum masterpiece, created in 2019, is a testament to timeless elegance. Explore its various iterations in terms of carat weights and price ranges – for further details, do not hesitate to inquire within.

  • Spectra Fine Jewelry Conch Pearl Diamond Necklace
    By Spectra Fine Jewelry
    Located in New York, NY
    Conch pearls (pronounced KONK) are among the rarest and most valuable of all natural pearls. It has been estimated that approximately 15,000 conch must be harvested before a single pearl is found. An exceptional piece (pearls over 10 carats and exhibiting a strong chatoyant like flame pattern) may take as many as 50,000. Though pearls can be found in a variety of conch, it is the pearl from the Queen Conch, that has become the most widely known and collected. This is due in part to the wide variety of colors that it produces. Pearls can be found in colors of white, brown, beige, orange, pink and red, the latter two being the most highly prized. Finding a gem-quality conch pearl is known amongst fishermen as "the lotto". High prices are paid for such pearls, further adding to their allure. Over the last century, conch pearls have captured the attention of prestigious designers and jewelers alike. Conch pearls can be found in the world's most exclusive jewelry stores.
