The Q for Quitterie, for Quincy, or for Quentin — a singular and refined letter, set with genuine natural diamonds. Jewelry for unique personalities.
The Q is paved with natural diamonds extracted from the earth, chosen for their purity and whiteness. A precious, certifiable gemstone as rare as the initial it adorns.
The loop of the Q lets the light flow, and its small tail signs the letter with a touch of boldness. A distinctive and elegant initial, superb as a name pendant.
✔ Stones: natural diamonds, hand-set pavé
✔ Hallmarked metal, certificate on request (gold)
✔ Integrated bail, chain not included
✔ Delivered in an Emirice jewelry box, ready to gift
Giving the Q of a loved one's name in natural diamond means giving a piece of jewelry as rare as the person. A distinctive and eternal gift.
At Emirice, every piece is designed to last and to make a statement. Treat yourself to the sparkle that reflects who you are.
On an 18-karat gold letter pendant, the size is the criteria that most changes the look. A one-inch Q remains discreet under an open collar; a three-inch Q becomes the centerpiece of the outfit.
| Size | Look when worn |
|---|---|
| 1 inch (25.4 mm) | Discreet, slips under an open collar |
| 1.5 inches (38.1 mm) | Visible without excess, the most versatile format |
| 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 format, to wear on a heavy chain |
The metal is chosen independently of the size: a gold letter pendant in 10, 14, or 18 karats, or the 925 sterling silver version for a more accessible silver letter pendant. The white gold, yellow gold, or rose gold finish is then selected.
The chain is not included, leaving you free to compose the set as you wish. Since the bail is integrated into the Q, it connects directly to a pendant chain without an intermediate jump 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 lower down. See Emir ICE chains and Cuban chains.
Alone, as a statement piece. A chain, a Q, nothing else: on a plain dark t-shirt, the fire of the natural diamond stands out immediately.
Layered. A short chain wearing the Q and a second, longer, finer chain: the offset creates depth without blurring the design.
Matching metals. Yellow gold warms up dark skin tones; white gold and 925 silver lean toward a cool, graphic look. A letter pendant necklace remains a safe gift: it carries personal meaning without imposing a specific taste.

Use a soft, dry cloth after each wear; occasionally clean with a lukewarm soapy water bath, use 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 chosen separately, allowing you to adjust length and width to the chosen size.
A natural diamond is extracted from the earth and then cut. A lab-grown diamond is a real diamond, cultivated via CVD or HPHT: same hardness, same fire, traceable origin, and a softer price per carat. Both are diamonds; only the origin, and thus the price, differs. See the lab-grown diamond pendant collection.
The 1.5-inch size satisfies the greatest number: visible enough in a photo, sober enough for daily wear. Move up to 2 inches if you already wear a heavy chain. All initials are gathered in the initial letter pendant collection.
