Ruby Dotted Sleek Diamond Necklace White Gold

The stones punctuate the line at intervals rather than filling it, so the metal is part of the pattern. The sections are graduated toward the centre, which is what keeps the piece sitting level. The surface is close-set: 497 diamonds with almost no metal showing between them.

That is 571 settings, cut and closed one at a time. The diamonds and rubies are matched for tone before anything is set, which takes longer than matching for size. 18KT gold holds the settings rigid where 22KT would move.
