Lab-Grown Diamond Bezel Solitaire Necklaces, grown in light.
One stone, one clean rim of metal. A lab-grown diamond solitaire bezel necklace pares the look down to essentials: a single stone wrapped in a smooth collar and hung from a fine chain. Variations include a side loop bail, a polished swirl and a wide stepped rim. Shape comes in round or princess, and every design runs from 1 to 6 ct tw, picked alongside the metal.

Round or princess in a bezel
- Round: the rim follows the stone in an unbroken circle, the softest outline.
- Princess cut: a square frame with crisp corners, where the bezel guards the points that a prong setting leaves exposed.
How big to go
Every figure here is total carat weight. At 1 ct tw the bezel solitaire pendant sits as a bright point at the collarbone; at 3 ct tw and above it is visible from across a room. A bezel hides a sliver of the stone's side, so a step up in weight helps if you want more presence. Lab-grown stones keep those larger sizes far more affordable than mined ones.
Gold or silver around the stone
Yellow, white and rose gold come in 10K or 14K. 14K carries a deeper yellow because more of it is pure gold; 10K wears tougher and lowers the price. Silver is sold as Silvadium, a tarnish-resistant sterling silver. White gold blends into the stone, while yellow and rose gold draw a visible outline around it.
Everyday care for a bezel pendant
With no prongs, the pendant slides under sweaters and collars without snagging. Take it off for the pool and the gym. Now and then, go over the stone's underside with a soft brush and a little soapy water, then hang the chain or lay it flat so it stays free of knots.
Lab-Grown Diamond Bezel Solitaire Necklaces: Common Questions
How much does a bezel solitaire diamond necklace cost?
From about $400 at the smallest option. Most of Novara's bezel solitaire necklaces start between about $900 and $1,200, and it climbs as you add carat weight or move up in metal. Silver and 10K gold cost less than 14K. Because the stones are lab-grown, a larger solitaire stays within reach.
