925 Sterling Silver Moissanite Flower Pendant Necklace | 101300862214610

How to Measure Your Necklace

Pendant

• Width: Measure across the flower from the tip of one petal to the opposite petal (in millimeters for best accuracy).
• Height (total drop): Measure from the top of the bail to the lowest point of the pendant.
• Thickness: If needed, use calipers or compare against a ruler edge.
• Bail opening: Measure the inner height and width to ensure your chain or clasp passes through.

Chain Length

• Use a soft measuring tape or a string around your neck. Mark where it meets and measure the string against a ruler.
• Common lengths and where they sit on most necks:
  • 14 in (35.5 cm) – Choker, high on the neck
  • 16 in (40.5 cm) – Just above the collarbone
  • 18 in (45.5 cm) – At the collarbone
  • 20–22 in (50.5–56 cm) – Below the collarbone
• Extenders: Many chains include a 2 in (5 cm) extender for flexible length.

Estimate Where the Pendant Will Sit

• Approximate drop on chest = (chosen chain length ÷ 2) + pendant height.

Moissanite Stone Size (round, approx. diamond-equivalent look)

• 4.0 mm ≈ 0.25 ct DEC

• 6.0 mm ≈ 0.75 ct DEC
• 6.5 mm ≈ 1.00 ct DEC
• 7.0 mm ≈ 1.25 ct DEC
• 7.5 mm ≈ 1.50 ct DEC
• 8.0 mm ≈ 2.00 ct DEC

Measurement tips: 1 inch = 25.4 mm. Minor variances (±0.5 mm) are normal with hand measurement.

Material Details

925 Sterling Silver

• Composition: 92.5% pure silver + 7.5% alloy (commonly copper) for strength and durability.
• Hallmark: Typically stamped “925” or “S925”.
• Finish: Many sterling pieces are rhodium-plated for added shine and better tarnish resistance.
• Skin friendliness: Generally hypoallergenic for most wearers; if you have known metal sensitivities, choose rhodium-plated options and avoid harsh cleaners.

Moissanite (Lab-Grown)

• Material: Silicon carbide, grown in a lab—no mining required.
• Hardness: ~9.25 on the Mohs scale (very durable for daily wear).
• Brilliance: High refractive index (~2.65–2.69) with exceptional fire and sparkle.
• Care: Stable under everyday heat, light, and household conditions; keeps its clarity and color with simple cleaning.

Note: Some moissanite can register similarly to diamond on certain thermal testers—this is normal for the material.

Model & Fit Guide

If shown on a model, the pendant typically appears near the collarbone when worn at 16–18 inches. To replicate the look:

• Petite necks (approx. 12–13.5 in circumference): 16 in chain often sits at or just above the collarbone.
• Average necks (approx. 13.5–15 in): 18 in chain sits at the collarbone.
• Fuller necks (approx. 15–16.5 in): 20–22 in helps the pendant sit comfortably below the collarbone.

For layering, consider 14–16–18 in tiers so each piece is visible without tangling.

Care Guide (Keep It Lovely Longer)

Daily Do’s

• Last on, first off: Put jewelry on after skincare, perfume, and hairspray; remove before sleep.
• Keep dry: Remove before swimming, bathing, gym, or cleaning.
• Store smart: Keep in a dry, closed pouch or box with anti-tarnish strip; avoid humid bathrooms.

Cleaning

1. Prepare a bowl of lukewarm water with a drop of mild dish soap.
2. Soak for 5–10 minutes.
3. Gently brush with a soft toothbrush (especially behind the stones).
4. Rinse with clean water and pat completely dry with a lint-free cloth.
5. Finish with a non-abrasive silver polishing cloth.

Important:

• If the silver is rhodium-plated, avoid harsh silver dips and abrasive pastes (they can dull or strip plating).
• Ultrasonic cleaners are generally safe for moissanite, but avoid them if the piece has delicate micro‑pavé settings or adhesives; when in doubt, hand-clean or see a jeweler.
• A jeweler can re-polish or re-rhodium plate the piece if the finish softens over time.

Style Tips

• Everyday shine: Wear solo on a 16–18 in chain to highlight the collarbone.
• Layered look: Pair with a shorter choker and a longer 20–22 in chain for dimension.
• Occasions: Complements bridal, cocktail, and workwear—moissanite’s sparkle dresses up effortlessly.
• Match metals: Coordinates with sterling silver, white gold, and platinum pieces.
• Earrings pairing: Simple moissanite studs or small hoops keep the floral pendant as the focal point.
• Necklines: V-neck, sweetheart, and scoop necklines showcase the flower silhouette best.
