This 14 karat yellow gold tennis necklace features 117 round brilliant cut diamonds totaling 8.80 carats, each measuring 2.75mm. The diamonds grade SI1 in clarity and H-I in color, meaning they have minor inclusions only visible under magnification and appear nearly colorless when set in yellow gold.

Round brilliant cuts maximize light return through 58 precisely angled facets, creating continuous sparkle from every viewing angle. Each diamond sits in an individual bezel setting that frames the stone with a thin rim of gold, creating a sleek line of diamonds around the entire 16-inch length.

The bezel settings protect the diamonds' edges while providing a smooth surface that won't snag on clothing or hair. At 16 inches, this necklace rests at the base of the neck just above the collarbone, creating a collar effect. The substantial carat weight creates noticeable presence without excessive bulk, and the flexible design allows the necklace to drape naturally when worn.
