Lab-grown diamond number 1 pendant: number one, in real diamonds
The 1, symbol of the leader and the unique, a proud line paved with genuine lab-grown diamonds. Wear it as a signature of confidence.
The lab-grown diamond: the real diamond, more responsible
The 1 is paved with cultivated diamonds (CVD/HPHT), identical to mined diamonds: 10/10 Mohs, D-F / VVS purity, same white fire. An ethical and traceable origin, at a much gentler price.
A line of concentrated brilliance
The verticality of the 1 gathers all the light onto a single stroke, for a clean and assertive shine. A symbol of ambition and uniqueness, for those who lead.

Choosing the right size for your number 1 pendant
For a diamond pendant, size is the criterion that most changes the overall look. A 1-inch 1 remains discreet under an open collar; a 3-inch 1 becomes the centerpiece of the outfit.
| Size |
On-body appearance |
| 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, assertive look |
| 2.5 inches (63.5 mm) |
Centerpiece of the outfit, for evenings and photos |
| 3 inches (76.2 mm) |
Maximum format, best worn on a heavy chain |
The metal is chosen independently of the size: 10, 14, or 18k gold for a men's diamond pendant meant to last, or solid 925 sterling silver for a more accessible first piece. Regarding finish, a white gold diamond pendant plays the card of cold contrast, while yellow and rose gold warm up the pavé.
Which chain should you pair this number 1 pendant with?
The chain is not included, leaving you free to compose the set as you wish. As the bail is integrated into the 1, it directly receives a pendant chain without an intermediate ring. Two rules are enough.
The width rule
The chain should support the pendant without stealing the spotlight:
- 1 to 1.5-inch pendant: fine chain of 2 to 4 mm.
- 2-inch pendant: 4 to 7 mm chain.
- 2.5 to 3-inch pendant: 8 mm chain and up, such as a Cuban link.
The length rule
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.
How to wear your number 1 pendant
Alone, as a standalone piece. A chain, a 1, nothing else: on a plain dark t-shirt, the fire of the lab-grown diamond stands out immediately.
Layered. A short chain wearing the 1 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 cold and graphic look. A number pendant necklace is also a safe gift: it carries personal meaning without imposing a specific taste.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the chain included?
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 selected size.
Is a lab-grown diamond a real diamond?
Yes. A lab-grown diamond is a genuine diamond, cultivated via CVD or HPHT: same hardness, same fire, traceable origin, and a gentler price for the same carat weight. It is neither moissanite nor cubic zirconia, which are stones of a completely different nature. The same silhouette exists in natural diamond.
What size for a first number pendant?
The 1.5-inch is the most popular format: enough presence for a photo, sober enough for daily wear. Move to 2 inches if you already wear a heavy chain. Other numbers are grouped in the lab-grown diamond pendants collection.
