Which necklace (pearl, dbty or bean)?

[Pockster00]

I currently wear a Tiffany RG smile necklace and I'm looking to change it up. Out of these 3, which should I choose? It will be for everyday casual wear and I'm going for dainty and classic. I have a small frame and want the necklace to be visible but not overpowering.

1st up is the WG Signature Pearl Pendant with a 6.5-7 mm Akoya pearl
2nd is the RG Bean in size 7 mm (or is 9 mm better?)
3rd is the RG DBTY with 0.14 ct diamond (or is another size better?)

If you have any of these, please share your thoughts and I'd love to see your model shots!

All 3 are beautiful! I don’t have an answer, but do have some thoughts. Your smile is all gold, as is the bean, so I’d probably vote for the pearl or dbty because you’re looking for something different. Do you take your necklace off daily? If not, that might make the pearl more impractical. Although the WG makes it seem the most different out of the three from your current necklace. Size of the dbty is entirely personal preference! Good luck deciding!

I would go with the DBTY because it is a classic piece that you can wear by itself or mix and match with other pieces.

I would pick DBTY. It is a classical piece. I have one in PL with .33 diamond. I love it and wear it all the time. It can be dressed up or down and goes with absolutely everything.

So much love for the DBTY necklace here! I am really between the DBTY and the pearl pendant. I like the idea that the pendant has gold, diamond and pearl altogether. I don’t currently own pearls and think a single pearl would be really pretty. But I know the DBTY is the “safe” choice.

To the PPs, I remove my jewelry first thing when I come home and I don’t usually stack necklaces.

I think the pearl is very pretty. That would be my choice of these three.

I like the bean. It Has the most visual interest.

I currently am wearing a pearl pendant held by a diamond encrusted clasp with a gold chain (not Tiffany). I love it! It is classic and timeless with an extra pop. It goes with every outfit and I always get complements. DBTY would be my second choice. Though pretty, I feel like it is very minimalistic (my opinion). Good luck!

DBTY hands down. I too have a petite frame and was looking for a classic dainty piece for everyday. I ended up picking a 0.23ct diamond necklace (Not tiffany). I knew I wanted a diamond since the beginning, just because I find it to be the epitome of "classic dainty". I find the 0.23 size perfect, but it doesn't have the gold surrounding it like the dbty one does, it is just held with the gold claws. Since the dbty is held surrounded with the gold, it makes it appear bigger so I think the 0.14 may be fine in size.
I think diamond necklaces are timeless, and are a beautiful addition to any outfit/occasion. The way diamonds catch the light too, is absolutely stunning.

Pearl!

If you live in a big (or even medium) city, you’re going to see dbtys, open hearts, bean, and tags ALL THE TIME. The pearl, on the other hand, is timeless, elegant, a bit more “adult” imho and a great part of a professional-to-evening wardrobe. (When I saw your post yesterday, I went and ordered one!! —whereas I sold my RTT tag, bean, and open hearts a few years ago. (Still have my dbty but rarely wear it—dbty fatigue!)

All 3 are beautiful! I would go with the DBTY, especially if you will be wearing it daily. While I love the pearl necklace, it’s a softer gem that could get more easily scratched, and depending on the weather where you live, if you’re more likely to sweat it could affect the luster of the pearl.

DBTY hands down! It's classic, has a bit of sparkle, and can be worn with everything.

The bean is my second choice, but I feel like there's something missing if it's worn with another plain gold pendant.

As nice as the pearl is, I would worry about its durability as an everyday piece, as Akoya pearls do not have a solid nacre and will likely peel/chip over time.
