Price depends on total carat weight, stone quality, whether the stones are lab grown or natural, and the metal. A lab grown diamond necklace costs significantly less than a natural diamond necklace of equivalent grades. A single-stone pendant is typically less expensive than a full tennis necklace at equivalent stone quality.

As a jewelry category, diamond necklace covers several distinct styles: a pendant with a single stone or cluster on a chain, a station necklace with stones at intervals, a tennis necklace with a continuous line of stones, and a choker. Each has a different character and scale. As a gift, a diamond necklace most commonly marks a milestone: a birthday, an anniversary, a push present, a personal achievement. The style and scale can be chosen specifically for the person, which makes it one of the more personal commissions in the fine jewelry category.

Yes. A well-made 14k or 18k gold necklace handles daily wear without issue for most people. Take it off before swimming in chlorinated water and avoid wearing it through heavy chemical exposure over time. Store it separately from other pieces when you take it off to prevent scratching. Bring it in once a year for a clean and a clasp check. If the color at the skin contact points starts to warm on a white gold piece, that is normal rhodium plating wear, a maintenance item rather than a repair.
