Frequently Asked Questions

Is the pendant solid metal or plated?

The pendant is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass), so the alloy forms the base beneath the surface finish. Rhodium gives a bright white, reflective finish and resists tarnish. This construction identifies a plated piece, with the surface a wearer sees and touches being the finish.

What does the 3.2 Mm stone size refer to?

The 3.2 Mm measurement is for one cubic zirconia accent stone, rather than the combined stones in the pendant. Its 2.6 ct total carat weight covers all cubic zirconia stones. Each stone is round and held in a bezel setting.

How does the clasp and extender work?

A lobster clasp closes with a sprung lever. The pendant uses a 17 Inch + 2 Inch Extender link chain; the extender is a short section at the clasp that allows more than one wearing length. A link chain consists of identical interlocking loops for an even drape.

How to Care for Your Cubic Zirconia Christmas Pendant

1. Clean rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) with soap, water, and a soft cloth.
2. Avoid polishing compounds and dips, which can thin the surface finish.
