Zoe Lev is having a Valentine’s Day 20% off event. I may pull the trigger on the 3 prong.

It’s 5 carats and will be perfect to layer.

Any thoughts on an adjustable chain?? It may be nice to be able to adjust depending on the neckline of what I’m wearing....
So excited for you, let us know if you get it....20% off is a great buy.

How long is the actual diamond part of the necklace? If you get the chain and find yourself not changing the length as much as you thought you would, perhaps you could get it removed??
 
So here are pix of the 3 prong and the 4 prong...both 16” but pulled the 3 prong up for some separation. 3 prong is 7ctw and 4 is 5ctw...
Horrible pix but would love your input. Which do you prefer? View attachment 4974001
I love both of them on you! They both look substantial on and the size difference to me at least is negligible, so I would go for the line as I'm assuming that it's cheaper with less tcw.

The length of the necklace with diamonds is 14” with the option of it being adjustable up to 16”. I tried on a 16” today and it was way too long. I can order it at 15” also. I just can’t seem to make up my mind.

I really like both of them and agree that you can’t tell a huge difference in the size. Did you feel like the diamonds stood out more in one shape vs the other? Do you plan on layering it or mixing metals? They look great on you!

@Canturi lover, thanks so much for your input. Believe it or not, the price was just about $500 difference...I think because both were G color but the four prong was VS1 and the 3 was SI1...I could not see a difference in clarity at all.
Ugh...this is so hard!! Jeweler is holding both for me as I sleep on it...

Megs, thank you! I felt like the diamond stood out much more on the 3 prong and think I like the look of less metal.
I do plan on layering it. I'm not sure on mixing metals although I do mix my tennis bracelet (which is plat) with yellow gold, so I might. To that point the 3 prong with less medal would probably be a better option.

Good luck with your choice! At least you narrowed down size as 15! :)

The less metal is the main reason I’m leaning towards the 3 prong too. My wedding rings are plantinum but other than that I wear mostly yg. The necklaces I wear most frequently are yg too. Can’t decide if the wg would look out of place with all of my yg or not??

I don't think so. I wear my platinum tennis bracelet stacked between two gold bracelet and love the look. And I'm not a big fan of mixing metals but I feel with a dazling row of diamonds, it just works.

My tennis bracelet is wg too and even though I don’t wear it that often part of me likes the thought of the necklace complementing the tennis bracelet. I wear several Cartier loves and when I try to stack my tennis bracelet with my bracelets sometimes I think it looks like I am throwing all of my bracelets on one arm :facepalm:
