Moissanite Flower Shape Pendant Necklace | 101300052382925

How to Measure

Use this quick guide to confirm size before ordering.

1) Chain length

• Wrap a flexible tape (or a string you later measure) around your neck to the point you want the pendant to rest. That length is your ideal chain size.
• If you already own a favorite necklace, lay it flat and measure end to end, including the clasp.
• Common lengths for pendants:
  • 14 in (35 cm) – choker
  • 16 in (40 cm) – base of neck
  • 18 in (45 cm) – on the collarbone (most popular for pendants)
  • 20 in (50 cm) – just below the collarbone
  • 22–24 in (55–60 cm) – mid-chest
• If an extender is included with your necklace, it usually adds about 2 in (5 cm) of adjustability.

2) Pendant dimensions

• Height: top to bottom. Sellers may list this measurement either excluding or including the bail (the loop the chain passes through). Check both if noted.
• Width: side to side at the widest point of the flower.
• Depth/Thickness: front to back (profile).
• Quick size feel: 10 mm ≈ 0.39 in, 12 mm ≈ 0.47 in, 15 mm ≈ 0.59 in, 20 mm ≈ 0.79 in.
• Tip: Compare to a coin or draw the measurements on paper to visualize scale on your neckline.

3) Stone size (moissanite)

• Moissanite is typically sized in millimeters. You may also see an approximate “diamond equivalent weight” (DEW) for visual reference.
• Approximate round-size guide:
  • 4 mm ≈ 0.25 ct DEW
  • 5 mm ≈ 0.5 ct DEW
  • 6.5 mm ≈ 1.0 ct DEW
  • 8 mm ≈ 2.0 ct DEW
  • 9 mm ≈ 2.75 ct DEW
  • 10 mm ≈ 3.5 ct DEW
  Values are approximate and vary with cut and setting.

4) Bail clearance

• If you plan to use your own chain, confirm the bail’s inner height and width so your chain can pass through comfortably.

Materials & Quality

Moissanite (lab-grown silicon carbide)

• Brilliance and fire: exceptionally sparkly; high refractive index (approx. 2.65–2.69) and strong dispersion.
• Durability: ~9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale for excellent scratch resistance in daily wear.
• Ethical: created in a controlled environment; conflict-free.
• Care-friendly: resists clouding; retains its sparkle with simple cleaning (see Care Guide below).

Metals (refer to the product options/specifications for the exact metal of this item)

• Sterling Silver (925): bright white look; may be rhodium-plated for enhanced shine and tarnish resistance.
• Gold Vermeil: thick gold plating over sterling silver (commonly 2.5 microns or more); gentle care recommended.
• Solid Gold (10k/14k/18k): 14k balances strength and color; 18k offers a richer hue; white gold is often rhodium-finished for brightness.
• Platinum: naturally white, dense, hypoallergenic, and highly durable.
• Nickel sensitivity: if you are sensitive, consider sterling silver, higher-karat gold, or platinum.

Setting & craftsmanship

• Flower motif settings are commonly prong- or bezel-set to maximize light return while securing the stone(s).
• Tolerances: handcrafted dimensions can vary slightly (often within ±0.2 mm).

Model & Fit Guide

• If product photos include a model, use the chain-length guide above to replicate the drape you see.
• General fit by neck size:
  • Petite necks (approx. 30–34 cm / 12–13.5 in): 16 in sits at the base of the neck; 18 in at the collarbone.
  • Average necks (approx. 34–38 cm / 13.5–15 in): 16 in on the collarbone; 18 in just below.
  • Broader necks (approx. 38–42 cm / 15–16.5 in): 18 in at the collarbone; 20 in below.
• Neckline pairing: V-necks and scoop necks highlight an 18 in pendant; for higher necklines or knits, consider 20–22 in for comfortable drop.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Everyday cleaning: soak in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap for 10–15 minutes, gently brush with a soft toothbrush, rinse, and pat dry.
• Avoid chemicals: remove before swimming, hot tubs, cleaning, or applying perfumes, lotions, hairspray, and sunscreen.
• Storage: keep dry; store in a soft pouch or separate compartment to prevent scratches and reduce tarnish on silver.
• Polishing:
  • Sterling silver: use a non-abrasive silver polishing cloth as needed.
  • Rhodium-plated or gold-plated finishes: avoid abrasive cloths, dips, or ultrasonic cleaners; use only mild soap and water.
  • Solid gold/platinum: ultrasonic or professional cleaning is generally safe; check that stones are secure first.
• Check settings: periodically inspect prongs/bezels for security; have a jeweler tighten or re-finish rhodium as needed.
• Last on, first off: put jewelry on after cosmetics; remove before workouts or bed.

Style Tips

• Let the flower motif be the focus by pairing with simple moissanite or diamond-cut studs.
• Layer gracefully: try a shorter, delicate chain (14–16 in) above and a longer chain (20–22 in) below for a tiered look.
• Neckline match: 18 in shines with V-necks and sweetheart necklines; choose 20–22 in for crewnecks and knits.
• Metal harmony: match your pendant’s metal to your everyday pieces; or mix metals for a modern, curated stack.
• Event-ready: a single flower pendant adds romantic polish for weddings, date nights, or garden parties; amplify with a slim tennis bracelet.
• Seasonal switch: bright spring/summer palettes complement the floral design; in colder months, extend the chain for styling over sweaters.
