Is a lab-grown diamond a real diamond?

Yes. It has the same carbon structure and optical properties as a mined diamond. The difference is origin, and lab-grown stones usually cost less and resell for less.

How does VVS1, D color compare with typical pendants?

VVS1 means very, very slightly included, and D is the top colorless grade. Most pendants sold at this size use VS or SI clarity and near-colorless stones, so this sits above the mainstream.

What chain length does it come with?

An 18-inch chain plus a 2-inch extension, so it can sit at 18 or 20 inches. The pendant itself is about 0.7 inches long and 0.5 inches wide.

Will a 1 carat diamond look large in a pendant?

It reads smaller than a 1 carat ring stone because it hangs free rather than sitting in a band. Expect a noticeable but modest solitaire, good for daily wear.

What metal is the chain and setting made of?

The product details do not state the metal. Ask the seller to confirm before buying if metal type matters to you, especially for allergies.

Our take on the 1 Carat Diamond Round Pendant Necklace

A solitaire pendant from MASON New York set with a 1 carat lab-grown diamond in VVS1 clarity, D color and an excellent cut. The stone hangs from an 18-inch chain with a 2-inch extension, and the pendant measures about 0.7 by 0.5 inches. Lab-grown stones give the same look as mined diamonds at a lower cost, and the top-tier clarity and color put it above most mass-market pendants, which often sit at VS or SI clarity and near-colorless grades. It suits someone who wants a clean, everyday solitaire without paying mined-diamond prices.
