- Is the diamond real?
- Yes. It is a lab-grown diamond of 0.11 carat with VS clarity, chemically identical to a mined diamond but grown in a lab.
- Is it solid gold?
- No. It is 18k gold vermeil, a thick gold layer over sterling silver, not solid 18k gold.
- How long is the chain?
- The chain is 18 inches and adjustable, so it can be worn shorter at the collarbone or longer below it.
- Can I shower or swim in it?
- Better not. Water, chlorine and perfume speed up plating wear on vermeil, so take it off first.
- Is $425 a good price?
- It is the best new price found as of November 8, 2026, at Nordstrom, and it sits at the top of the recent range, so waiting for a promotion is reasonable.
- What comes in the box?
- The necklace arrives in Monica Vinader packaging, which is gift-ready; check the listing for any included polishing cloth.
