The beads are oblong in shape and graduated in size, with the largest stones measuring 4.5 x 4 mm and the smallest ones measuring 2.5 x 2.2 mm. The beads are hand wired in a labor intensive process—an 18k gold wire was pulled through each bead and then looped and hand strung into the 3/8” sections of chain between each diamond. The result is a beautiful diamond by the yard (or diamond by the inch) necklace. The gray diamonds are included, giving them a milky finish, with many facets that catch the light. They have beautiful variation in their coloring, and the necklace captures the many shades of gray that can be found in the sky on a cloudy day.

The necklace contains 34 natural gray diamonds, for a TCW of 7.5 carats. The diamonds range in size from 4.5 x 4 mm to 2.5 x 2.2 mm. We love that the gray diamonds allow for a necklace with many carats of diamonds but at an affordable price.

The necklace is 17.5” long and weighs 4 grams. It has a lobster clasp and is marked 750.

This piece looks great stacked with the 18K Gold Hand Wired Salt and Pepper Diamond Faceted Bead Necklace, also available in our shop. See less
