Holly Emerald Green CZ Pendant Gold Necklace

The Holly is an 18K gold-filled pendant necklace with a cushion-cut emerald green cubic zirconia at the center, surrounded by a halo of clear cubic zirconias. The green stone is a deep, saturated color rather than a pale or yellow-toned green, and the halo gives it more presence than a solitaire would without making it heavy.

The pendant sits on an 18-inch chain, which lands just below the collarbone on most necklines. It works well worn alone or as the focal piece when layering, though the halo setting means it is better suited as the statement piece in a stack rather than a background layer.

The chain is 18K gold-filled, which holds up considerably better than gold-plated for everyday wear. If you wear it regularly, it is worth taking off before showering or swimming to keep the finish in good condition.

If getting the clasp on and off has become a reason to leave necklaces in the drawer, the 8" Claspable attaches to the existing clasp and lets you put it on by yourself, no help needed.
