Sorry if this has been discussed already. I wear tiny platinum DBTY earrings (2 each ear) and am considering a gold or rose gold DBTY necklace. I had a platinum one years ago that I sold because of the poking but apparently am considering trying again for a big birthday coming up. I’m leaning toward the yellow gold due to the thinner bezel than the rose gold and my husband and I think both golds suit my skin better than platinum/white. How does everyone else feel about mixing metals on the neck/ears? I wear all three colors regularly on my fingers including a Trinity ring. Thanks in advance!

I have white gold tiny studs (not dbty) and a rose gold dbty necklace and I don’t mind it at all :) I think you can barely see the wg with the diamond, what stands out is the necklace colour

They also do the rose gold in the thinner bezel.

I think I might be crazy...I love the dbty necklaces. I like the solitaire version. I have a platinum .22 and a yellow gold .26. I’m thinking of getting a larger stone anywhere from .30 - .50 range in rose gold with the thinner bezel. I’m unsure of the best size and if I should do rose gold. Below are two pictures one of my current yellow gold and the other comparing rose gold (top) and yellow gold (bottom) on my skin tone. I like the chain to blend in with my skin so the diamond floats. Platinum looks grey on me so I don’t wear that dbty necklace as much (added it in third picture for fun). If you have any opinions or pictures of .30 - .50 dbty and if you think rose gold looks nice on me or do a another yellow gold, but larger. Looking for a good size that has a little sparkle on the neck, but you can still see from further across the room. Thank you!!!

Thanks, I appreciate the input above and am pretty much decided on the rose gold pear DBTY since I like it, it is more different than the one I sold previously, and I think it wou work better when I wear my rose gold bean earrings also.

The pictures of the pear shaped DBTY are few and far between so if anyone has any to share I’d love to see them!

For myself, I would pick platinum over sterling silver. I have several silver Tiffany pieces and the tarnishing of the silver really bothers me so that I don't really wear any of them anymore.

Regarding size, I feel like it would be hard to say which size is better for you based on pictures. I would recommend that you ask the sales associate to bring in the 0.14 carat if it is something you are considering. Or ask if they have 0.14 size in a different metal at least for you to try on and get an idea. For the 0.18 carat, what were the specs? If the color is really good, like an E or F, maybe you can find G, H or I color so the price difference is less than $400. Honestly in this dainty size, I couldn't tell the color differences although I can start to see the difference between G and H for larger stones. There was a G color stone in the store that was about 0.35 carats vs. the one I got which was I color (which I had them bring in from another store) and because I chose the lower color grade and clarity, I was able to save about $600 or 700!!! on the same size diamond. And of course it was still super sparkly.

I also have to mention that I have been afflicted with "diamond shrinkage syndrome" so that even though I was really happy with my 0.35 carat vs. the 0.2 carat I thought I originally wanted, I now want something even bigger. Too bad Tiffany doesn't have an upgrade policy for the DBTY though :lol: That is why I am also suggesting that you get a larger size stone (but still within your budget) like others have mentioned.

What size would you go with now if you could do it over again?

Agree with the shrinkage syndrome, I originally was going to go with the .03 because I love super dainty, but am so happy I went with .07, which seemed big at the time ; and which I still love as a super dainty piece, but I don't think the love would have lasted with the .03 !
