Fancy Shape Lab Grown Diamond Necklaces
Fancy Shape Lab Grown Diamond Necklaces in New Zealand
A diamondโs shape gives a necklace much of its character. Fancy shapes offer alternatives to the traditional round brilliant, from elongated outlines to geometric silhouettes and softly rounded corners. Explore Nura Labโs fancy shape lab grown diamond necklaces to find a design that reflects your personal style.
Discover Different Diamond Shapes
Oval diamonds combine length with a rounded outline, while pear diamonds bring together a curved base and a pointed tip. Marquise diamonds have an elongated silhouette with two pointed ends. Emerald cuts feature rectangular outlines, clipped corners and step-cut facets.
Other fancy shapes include radiant, cushion, princess, Asscher and heart. Each offers a different combination of outline and facet pattern. Availability varies by design, so check each product page for the diamond shapes and specifications used.
Choose a Single Feature or a Mixed-Shape Design
A single fancy shape diamond creates a clear focal point, allowing its outline to define the necklace. A design combining different shapes introduces contrast, while repeated matching stones create a consistent pattern.
For a suspended focal point, explore our diamond drop necklaces. For diamonds arranged along the neckline, browse our tennis necklaces. Some designs may belong to both collections.
Settings and Orientation Make a Difference
The setting influences how a diamondโs shape is presented. A bezel traces the stoneโs edge with a metal rim, while claws leave more of its outline exposed. Elongated diamonds can be positioned vertically, horizontally or at an angle, depending on the design.
Explore our bezel necklaces for framed silhouettes. Our drilled diamond necklaces offer another attachment style, using a small hole through the diamond as part of the connection.
Compare Measurements as Well as Carat Weight
Diamonds of the same carat weight can have different visible dimensions because of their shape and proportions. Compare the stoneโs length and width alongside its weight to understand its scale. For a pendant, check the complete setting dimensions as well.
If a necklace contains several diamonds, total carat weight refers to their combined weight. It does not necessarily describe the weight of the main stone. Review the individual diamond details where provided.
Style Your Fancy Shape Necklace
Wear your necklace alone to highlight the diamond outline, or pair it with a simpler piece at a different length. A diamonds by the yard necklace adds spaced accents, while a paper clip necklace introduces a contrasting chain texture.
Explore our layered necklaces for more inspiration. Allow space between pieces so chains and settings do not catch or rub repeatedly against one another.
A Gift with a Distinctive Shape
A fancy shape lab grown diamond necklace makes a thoughtful gift for someone drawn to a particular diamond silhouette. Choose a shape that complements their existing jewellery or introduces something different. Confirm their preferred metal colour, necklace length and whether the selected option includes a chain.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a fancy shape diamond necklace?
A fancy shape diamond necklace features diamonds with outlines other than the traditional round brilliant. Examples include oval, pear, emerald, marquise, radiant, cushion, princess, Asscher and heart shapes.
Does fancy shape mean the diamond is coloured?
No. Fancy shape describes the diamondโs outline, while fancy colour describes its body colour. Explore our fancy colour diamond necklaces for designs selected for their diamond colour.
What is the difference between diamond shape and cut quality?
Shape describes the diamondโs overall outline. Cut quality concerns how its proportions, facets and finishing affect its appearance and interaction with light. The grading information available varies by diamond and report.
Which diamond shape looks biggest?
There is no single answer for every diamond. Some elongated shapes offer greater visible length than a round diamond of similar weight, but proportions vary. Compare the actual length and width rather than relying on carat weight alone.
Can a fancy shape diamond be set horizontally?
Yes. Elongated diamonds can be set horizontally, often called an east-west orientation. Check the photographs and specifications to confirm how the stone is positioned in your chosen necklace.
Are all fancy shape necklaces pendants?
No. Fancy shape diamonds can form a single pendant, appear as spaced stations or be incorporated into a continuous or decorative arrangement. The term describes the diamonds rather than the necklaceโs construction.
Are lab grown fancy shape diamonds real diamonds?
Yes. Lab grown diamonds have the same essential chemical composition and crystal structure as natural diamonds. They can be cut into round and fancy shapes.
How do I choose the right necklace length?
Measure where you would like the chain to sit and compare it with the listed length and adjustment range. Account for any pendant or drop extending below the chain, and check whether a chain is included with your selected option.
Do pointed diamond shapes need particular care?
Take care to avoid knocks and snagging around pointed shapes such as pear, marquise and princess diamonds. Protection depends on the setting design. Check the settings regularly and follow the care instructions supplied with your necklace.
How should I clean my fancy shape diamond necklace?
For conventional diamond and gold designs, gently clean with lukewarm water, mild soap and a soft brush, then rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Follow the specific instructions for drilled diamonds, treated stones, other gemstones or special finishes.
