Ballerina Pendant with Simulated Diamonds

Wearing a Ballerina Pendant Every Day

A ballerina pendant at just under 1.5 inches tall sits clearly on the chest without looking heavy. The pave setting keeps the stones flat against the silver, so the piece does not snag on knits or scarves. The anti tarnish plating also means you can wear it to rehearsal, to work and to dinner without swapping it out.

Choosing a Chain Length

Since the chain is sold separately, length matters. An 16 inch chain places the pendant at the collarbone, which suits open necklines and young dancers. An 18 inch chain drops it a little lower and works under a crew neck. Go for 20 inches only if you like layering.

A thin box or cable chain in 925 silver is the safest match. Anything thick will fight with a pendant this size.

Styling It With Other Silver Pieces

The ballerina is a figure piece, so it looks best when the rest of the neckline stays quiet. If you want a second necklace, a simulated diamond solitaire necklace in a shorter length gives a clean sparkle above it without competing for attention.

For a plainer everyday look, a cz solitaire pendant is a good partner when you want the dancer saved for special days. A triple simulated diamond pendant echoes the three stones in the ballerina and makes a tidy matched pair for a gift to two sisters or a mother and daughter. Prefer something softer and more whimsical for a child? A dainty moon pendant is a sweet alternative.

Care for Your Ballerina Pendant

• Wipe it with a soft cloth after wear to remove skin oils.
• Keep it in a small pouch, away from other metal pieces.
• Take it off before swimming, showering or applying perfume.
• Rinse in lukewarm water with a drop of mild soap if the stones look dull, then dry fully.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this ballerina pendant a good gift for a child?

Yes, for girls from about 8 years old who can look after a small piece. Pair it with a 16 inch chain so it sits neatly. Supervise young children, since the stones are small.

Are the stones real diamonds?

No. They are round cut cubic zirconia, sold as simulated diamonds. They give strong sparkle at a fraction of the price of natural stones.

Will the silver turn my skin green?

Unlikely. The pendant is 925 sterling silver with a pure silver, anti tarnish finish, which is kind to most skin types.
