Is $499 a good price for a 1/4 carat diamond pendant?

It is in line with 10K white gold pendants of this carat weight, which commonly run $400 to $600. With only one new-price seller listed, there is no cheaper new option to compare against right now.

How white are the diamonds?

They are graded GIA J, the low end of near-colorless. Small stones hide warmth well, but next to a D-to-G piece the difference can show.

What chain length does it come on?

An 18-inch chain, which sits at the collarbone on most people. It is not adjustable, so check that length suits the wearer.

Is 10K white gold good enough for everyday wear?

It is real gold and fine for daily use, but it has less gold content than 14K and may need re-plating over time as the rhodium finish wears.

The pendant on its 18-inch chain, typically with a Zales gift box and a diamond grading card. Confirm the card and chain metal with the seller before ordering.

Jewelry like this usually drops during holiday and Valentine's sales. Watch the price history rather than buying at full list.
