The U of Ulysse, Ursula, or Umberto — a soft and open letter, a cup that gathers radiance. Set with lab-grown diamonds, it shines like a jewel box of light.
The U is paved with genuine lab-grown diamonds (CVD/HPHT), identical to mined diamonds: 10/10 Mohs, D-F / VVS clarity, brilliant white fire. An ethical origin at a controlled price.
The rounded base of the U gathers light in its hollow for a soft, enveloping brilliance. An elegant and soothing initial, superb for everyday wear.
✔ Stones: lab-grown diamonds, hand-set pavé
✔ Hallmarked metal, certificate upon request (gold)
✔ Integrated bail, chain not included
✔ Delivered in an Emirice jewelry box, ready to gift
The U of a cherished name: a sweet and personal gift to give or treat yourself to with tenderness.
At Emirice, every piece is designed to last and to leave an impression. Treat yourself to the radiance that suits you.
On an 18k gold letter pendant, the size is the factor that most impacts the look. A 1-inch U remains discreet under an open collar; a 3-inch U becomes the centerpiece of an outfit.
| Size | Look when worn |
|---|---|
| 1 inch (25.4 mm) | Discreet, fits under an open collar |
| 1.5 inch (38.1 mm) | Visible without being excessive, the most versatile size |
| 2 inches (50.8 mm) | Clear presence on the chest, bold look |
| 2.5 inches (63.5 mm) | Centerpiece of the outfit, for evenings and photos |
| 3 inches (76.2 mm) | Maximum size, to wear over a chunky chain |
The metal is chosen independently of the size: an 18k gold letter pendant (or 10k, 14k), or the 925 sterling silver version for a more accessible silver letter pendant. The white, yellow, or rose gold finish is then selected.
The chain is not included, allowing you to compose the set freely. As the bail is integrated into the U, it directly receives a pendant chain without an intermediate ring. Two rules are enough.
The chain must support the pendant without stealing the spotlight:
A 50 cm chain places the pendant below the collarbone, a 55 cm at the hollow of the sternum, and a 60 cm at the middle of the chest. The larger the pendant, the better it looks lower down. See Emir ICE chains and Cuban chains.
Alone, as a unique piece. A chain, a U, nothing else: on a plain dark t-shirt, the fire of the lab-grown diamond stands out immediately.
Layered. A short chain wearing the U and a second longer, thinner chain: the offset creates depth without blurring the motif.
Matching metals. Yellow gold warms up dark skin tones; white gold and 925 silver lean toward a cool, graphic look. A letter pendant necklace is also a safe gift: it carries personal meaning without imposing a taste.

Use a soft, dry cloth after each wear; give it an occasional bath in lukewarm soapy water, use a soft brush on the back of the setting, and dry completely. Put on your jewelry last, after perfume, and take it off before swimming.
No. The pendant is delivered alone in its box with an integrated bail. The chain is chosen separately, allowing you to adjust the length and width to the chosen size.
Yes. A lab-grown diamond is a real diamond, grown via CVD or HPHT: same hardness, same fire, a traceable origin, and a gentler price for the same carat weight. It is neither a moissanite nor a cubic zirconia, which are stones of a completely different nature. The same silhouette exists in natural diamond.
The 1.5-inch size satisfies the greatest number: visible enough in a photo, sober enough for daily wear. Move to 2 inches if you already wear a chunky chain. All initials are gathered in the initial letter pendant collection.
