The diamond trilogy pendant is a specialty pendant designed to maximize the brilliance of its three diamonds.

Chain Length

As we mention in our diamond necklace and pendant buying guide chain length is paramount to a fashionable pendant. You’ll want to select a diamond trilogy pendant that is either 16 or 18 inches to best show off the setting and shape of the necklace. Anything shorter will see the element sit too high and anything longer will see the element lost in the rest of your wardrobe.

The one wrinkle to consider with chain length is a twisted chain. Since a diamond trilogy pendant is a larger element than its solitaire stone counterpart, there is a higher chance that the chain can become twisted around itself. The problem is easily counteracted with a 16 or 18-inch chain, which are not as easily as entangled as the 20-inch chain.

Trilogy Design

The trio of diamonds in the diamond trilogy pendant often symbolize the past, present, and future, and though often set in a vertical way they can sometimes be set horizontally as well. When it comes to a horizontal setting, the beauty of the diamonds can be harder to pick out, so a vertically arranged diamond trilogy pendant is usually the best choice.

An expertly designed diamond trilogy pendant, such as 18 karat white gold diamond trilogy pendant shown below, can highlight the cut of a diamond in a way other pieces of jewelry are unable to. Combining the cut and setting of the diamond trilogy pendant, in which the diamonds are set off from the rest of the chain, the central diamonds of a trilogy pendant can sparkle brilliantly. You will want to look for a diamond trilogy pendant that best does this by searching for one with an invisible diamond setting.

Style Considerations

As with other diamond jewelry pieces, the wearer’s sense of style is especially important to consider when purchasing a diamond trilogy pendant. A vertically mounted diamond trilogy pendant can be hard to match with other necklaces and bracelets, so you need to be aware of what else is in your repertoire before selecting a diamond trilogy pendant.

Likewise, clothing considerations are also key with a diamond trilogy pendant, which is often an important visual element in a sense of style, and you need to select one that you feel comfortable wearing with any number of outfits. Diamond trilogy pendants can be the basis for any number of fashion styles, so choose one you think is versatile enough to match your tastes.

The diamond trilogy pendant, a symbolic connection between past, present, and future, is just one of the many ways to show off a beautiful trio of diamonds. As arguably the most visible element of a wardrobe, it is important to select a chain length, setting, and orientation that best highlights the sparkle of these stones. This will ensure that your diamond trilogy pendant is well suited to compliment your wardrobe and shine with the beauty of the diamonds.
