8 mm Zircon Pendant

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal is the 8 mm Zircon Pendant made from?

The pendant is made from a lead-free alloy base that is rhodium plated, giving it a bright white-metal surface. The plating sits over the alloy rather than being solid precious metal, and the stones are cubic zirconia in a bar setting.

What is the total stone weight on the pendant?

The pendant carries a total stone weight of 2 ct across its round cubic zirconia stones. Each stone measures 8 mm and is held in a bar setting on the pendant.

How long is the chain on the pendant?

The pendant comes on a 16 inch link chain with a 2 inch extender, so it can be worn at slightly different lengths. It closes with a lobster clasp, which fastens with a sprung lever for security.

How should I care for the pendant?

The pendant should be kept dry and away from harsh chemicals or perfumes, since the rhodium plating sits on the surface of the alloy underneath. Wiping it gently with a soft cloth after wear helps preserve its finish over time.

How to Care for Your 8 mm Zircon Pendant

1. Wipe the piece gently with a soft cloth after wearing to remove oils and residue.
2. Store it away from other jewelry to prevent scratching the plated surface.
3. Keep it away from perfume, lotion, and household chemicals that can wear down plating.
4. Remove it before swimming, bathing, or exercising to limit moisture exposure.
5. Avoid rubbing the cubic zirconia stones with abrasive materials.
