Will this work as a pendant?

[corsetted]

My mom has bought a 1-carat diamond for me to commision a pendant, for my wedding. It's been rather difficult trying to find a suitable design because I already have a diamond solitaire pendant, and I want something different from that.

But I also want a pendant that's not too complicated in design, one I can wear everyday. I want a design that showcases the diamond at its best, without looking like costume jewelry.

So, inspired by a poster who has a Mauboussin ring, I've tried to create a "Mauboussin" pendant. Thanks, kind poster. And sorry for the amateur photoshopping.

Do you think this pendant will work?

I think it will be adorable! I love that ring too!

I think it should work too. Its simple and pretty, and not overly complicated. Show us pics if you get it made!

I think that it would be lovely and would be a nice touch if you were to wear it on your wedding day.

I think the same.

IMHO, I think it would look better turned on point, like a baseball diamond, instead of on the square edge.

Either way, it's gorgeous!

It's very cute! I like it a lot

Thanks for all the sweet comments. I really must apologise to boudoir for 'vandalising' her pictures.

Skelly, your suggestion of turning it on its side is so intriguing! What do you guys think?

Choice 1 or 2?

I like choice 2 better and think it's so cute when viewed more as a square than from the other angle.

2. i also like it better viewed more as a square. and more original. i've seen lots of pendants similar to choice 1.

Yes. Mine was an earring turned pendant.
I had the bail made and changed it to a hidden loop in the back. Sorry for the amateur pics. HTH.

That's so pretty and vintage looking. I think I'll go with the square-ish shape since it's more unique.
