11mm / 1.1cm sterling silver & circular Cubic Zirconia necklace on a 16 inch chain, in a gift box

This very pretty sterling silver and Cubic Zirconia circular pendant, on a 16 inch fine chain.

The necklace will arrive nicely presented in a gift box.

Cubic Zirconia (also known as CZ) is similar to a diamond with its brilliance and crystal clarity, but it is a synthesized/man-made crystalline material that is colourless, hard, and flawless. It looks so much like a diamond, it is an affordable alternative to diamonds. It can also be made in different colors.

By the very nature of sterling silver, there is no way to protect it from tarnishing because sterling silver reacts with so many materials found in everyday life. The best way to reduce tarnish build-up is to actually wear your sterling silver jewellery often. When sterling silver is not worn it tarnishes quickly. Unavoidable I'm afraid, but perfectly normal and nothing to be concerned by, and it can easily be removed with a silver polishing cloth or polishing cream.
