The details
East-west oval lab-grown diamond solitaire necklace in a blackened Georgian setting. Vintage-inspired, ethically made by De La Paix.
Turned east west rather than hung point down, the oval reads wider and sits flatter against the collarbone. The 1 carat stone is held in a blackened 18 karat white gold cut-down collet—the Georgian button back—and suspended from a fine yellow gold chain that disappears against the skin. A solitaire that behaves like an everyday piece.

The craft
Each stone is backed in a case of blackened gold — a Georgian technique that deepens the stone and lends it the soft glow of candlelight.

Are lab-grown diamonds real diamonds?
Yes. Lab-grown diamonds have the same chemical, physical and optical properties as mined diamonds. We select ours at D–G colour, VS2+ clarity and Ideal cut, and certified stones can be requested.
Can I choose a different carat weight or metal?
We can custom make anything to almost any size. If you see something you like but don’t see the carat weight you desire, reach out to bespoke@shopdelapaix.com and we will provide you with an estimate.
How long will my necklaces take to arrive?
Most orders take 2–3 weeks to arrive, but some items may take longer. All items ship free with FedEx 2Day in the US.
Do you make bespoke pieces?
Yes. We can change the stone, carat weight or gold, reset natural diamonds from a vintage piece, or create something new. Write to bespoke@shopdelapaix.com.
