The Z for Zoé, Zacharie, Zinédine, or Zara — an electric letter, a zigzag lightning bolt design that hits like a signature. Set with lab-grown diamonds, it shines with boldness.
The Z is paved with genuine lab-grown diamonds (CVD/HPHT), identical to mined diamonds: 10/10 Mohs hardness, D-F / VVS clarity, brilliant white fire. An ethical origin and a controlled price.
The horizontal strokes and the diagonal of the Z cut through the light like a lightning bolt: the sparkle is sharp and assertive. A dynamic and rare initial for those with a striking personality.

The Z of a rare name: a bold and precious gift, to offer or to treat yourself to for standing out.
At Emirice, every piece is designed to last and to make a mark. Treat yourself to the sparkle that reflects who you are.
On an 18k gold letter pendant, the size is the factor that most influences the look. A 1-inch Z remains subtle under an open collar; a 3-inch Z becomes the centerpiece of your outfit.
| Size | Look when worn |
|---|---|
| 1 inch (25.4 mm) | Subtle, tucks under an open collar |
| 1.5 inch (38.1 mm) | Visible without excess, 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, evening and photo-ready |
| 3 inches (76.2 mm) | Maximum size, to be worn over a thick chain |
The metal is chosen independently of the size: an 18k gold letter pendant in 10, 14, or 18 karats, or the solid 925 sterling silver version for a more accessible silver letter pendant. The white, yellow, or rose gold finish is selected afterwards.
The chain is not included, allowing you to freely compose your set. Since the bail is integrated into the Z, it attaches directly to a pendant chain without the need for 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, a 60 cm in the middle of the chest. The larger the pendant, the better it looks worn lower. See the Emir ICE chains and Cuban chains.
Alone, as a statement piece. A chain, a Z, nothing else: against a dark, plain t-shirt, the fire of the lab-grown diamond stands out immediately.
Layered. A short chain wearing the Z and a second, longer and thinner chain: the offset creates depth without blurring the design.
Matching metals. Yellow gold warms up dark skin tones; white gold and 925 silver lean towards a cool, graphic finish. A letter pendant necklace is always a safe gift: it carries personal meaning without imposing a specific taste.

Use a soft, dry cloth after each use; an occasional bath in lukewarm soapy water, a soft brush on the back of the setting, and dry completely. Put the jewelry on last, after perfume, and remove it before swimming.
No. The pendant is delivered alone in its box, with an integrated bail. The chain is selected separately, allowing you to adjust the length and width to the chosen size.
Yes. A lab-grown diamond is a genuine diamond, cultivated using CVD or HPHT: same hardness, same fire, traceable origin, and a better 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 most people: present enough for photos, subtle enough for daily wear. Move up to 2 inches if you already wear a thick chain. All initials are available in the initial letter pendant collection.
