Pavé Stone Necklaces
Our pavé stone necklace collection features finely crafted pieces with hand-set stones in precious metal settings. Each necklace showcases the distinctive pavé technique, where small stones are set closely together to create continuous sparkle and texture.
Pavé settings originated in 18th century France, deriving from the word "pavé" meaning pavement, describing how stones are arranged side-by-side like cobblestones. This meticulous setting technique maximizes brilliance while maintaining a delicate profile, making these necklaces suitable for layering or wearing alone.
Available in various chain lengths and stone types including diamonds, cubic zirconia, and crystals. Metal options typically include sterling silver, 14k gold, and gold vermeil. The pavé technique allows for intricate designs from simple bars and circles to more elaborate geometric shapes and pendant styles.
These necklaces pair well with both casual and formal attire, offering versatility for daily wear or special occasions. The secure stone setting ensures durability while maintaining the refined aesthetic pavé jewelry is known for.
