Top 50 ★★★★★ Reviews for Necklace in 2025

Finding the perfect necklace can be a delightful yet overwhelming experience. With so many styles, materials, and price points, it’s essential to know what you want before diving into the world of jewelry shopping. At Rare Carat, we understand that a necklace is not just an accessory; it’s a statement piece that reflects your personality and style. In 2025, we’ve seen a surge in stunning designs and innovative materials that cater to every taste. Whether you’re looking for something classic or trendy, our guide will help you navigate through the top-rated options. For more insights on jewelry, check out Rare Carat for expert advice and a wide selection of necklaces.

Step 1 — Set budget & style

Choose jewelry type and setting

Before you start shopping, determine your budget. Necklaces come in various price ranges, so knowing how much you want to spend will help narrow down your options. Think about the style you prefer. Do you want something elegant, casual, or statement-making? Consider the occasion and your wardrobe to find a necklace that complements your look.

Step 2 — Prioritize the 4Cs

Cut first; practical color/clarity picks

The 4Cs—cut, color, clarity, and carat weight—are crucial when selecting a diamond necklace. Start with the cut, as it affects how the diamond sparkles. Next, choose a color and clarity that fits your budget. Remember, a well-cut diamond can look stunning even if it’s not the highest grade.

Step 3 — Compare with Rare Carat

Filters, saved lists, expert checks

Use Rare Carat’s tools to compare different necklaces. You can filter by price, style, and even the 4Cs. Save your favorite options to a list for easy access. Plus, Rare Carat offers expert checks to ensure you’re making a wise purchase.

Step 4 — Verify reports & policies

GIA/IGI; returns and warranties

Always verify the certification of your chosen diamond. Look for GIA or IGI reports, which provide detailed information about the diamond’s quality. Additionally, check the return policy and warranty offered by the seller. This ensures you’re protected in case the necklace doesn’t meet your expectations.

Step 5 — Choose setting & order

Sizing, shipping, insurance

Finally, decide on the setting for your necklace. Consider how it will look with your chosen diamond. Once you’re satisfied, place your order. Don’t forget to inquire about shipping options and insurance to protect your investment.

“I basically paid a got a 30% discount from purchasing this necklace during their sale. When I opened the box, I honestly had to double check my receipt because it looks way more expensive than what I paid. Your girl got herself a deal! On a diamond necklace at that!”

“I chose this necklace in yellow gold because it offers greater versatility, easily dressing up or down. I already have a white gold tennis necklace for formal events, so I wanted something equally sophisticated that I could wear for a variety of occasions. Now, I’ll enjoy rotating between the two”

“The selection process was easy. I chose an emerald cut natural diamond and had it set as a pendant. I was kept informed throughout entire process as to each stage of creation of the pendant. I requested it to be sent to FedEx and I was able to pick it up without any problem. It came in a beautiful wooden gift box. I replaced the chain because I wanted a slightly longer length.”

“I was looking for a lab created diamond pendant. I didn’t want it to be too white. Was able to find a G color VVS clarity. Was helped by several on the phone. The diamond pendant is beautiful! Appreciate the pendant can be removed from the chain as well. I will add to my lab created collection in the future! Love real diamonds but this opens up a more affordable avenue for me.”

“I bought this pendant for my 70th birthday. I had been looking for something special and nothing had caught my eye or was quite what I wanted. This piece is unique with the multi-shaped stones making it different from every other similar pendant. They were even able to make it 2 inches longer, so it falls exactly where I wanted it. I really love it. I wish I had been able to purchase it with natural diamonds, but the piece is so beautiful, I have no regrets. Thank you, Rare Carat!!”

“I could not speak more highly of Rare Carat. I went to a few local jewelers in San Diego first. It was incredibly helpful to learn what I actually wanted in cut, crown angle, color, and clarity. You really can’t know until you see them in person. I was sold on supporting local but was having a hard time justifying spending 7-8k. I tried brilliant earth and everything looks a bit tacky and their pricing was only slightly better. I then happened to read on a reddit forum about rare carat. WHAT A BLESSING. I spent the next two months eyeing new diamonds and trying to find a quality deal. One day a 1.3 carat diamond popped up with everything I was looking at from local dealers…for almost 5k (!!!) less than the local shops. Next, since I had waited so long, I had the stress that the ring wouldn’t arrive. I only had about 3 weeks for the ring to arrive and there was a holiday in there. I spoke with Rare Carat and they were able to get me the ring in 10ish days, it was remarkable. The diamond is perfect, the box was perfect, the gold ring was perfect. I highly recommend this website and as much as I like to support local businesses it is impossible to justify with such a great value from Rare Carat. Thanks again!”

“This is a fashion statement piece that you can wear each day and feel like royalty walking amongst everyone else. The graduating diamonds make it so if you wear a pendant, it compliments the larger stones in the center of this necklace. I was happy to see how well it stacked with my other jewelry. I wear pendants, chokers, and even other diamond necklaces. I even make some of my own costume jewelry, but the heart wants what it wants (diamonds) so I will never turn down a beautiful diamond work of art like this. Thank you to the gemologists, Cat and Elizabeth, for your help during this purchase.”

They loved the Rare Carat experience and plan to come back. Tips & Tricks.

Choosing the right necklace can be a rewarding journey. With the right budget, style, and knowledge of the 4Cs, you can find a piece that you’ll cherish for years.
