Diamond necklace with laboratory diamonds
A diamond necklace adds a delicate point of light and can be worn in a very personal way at the same time - on its own, layered, or with a pendant that has special meaning for you. In our collection, you will find a range of designs with lab-grown diamonds and recycled gold, from understated shapes to more expressive motifs.
Designed by jewelry designer Helge Maren, our diamond necklaces combine clear design with carefully set stones and documented material provenance. This means you can choose a necklace whose proportions, pendant, and sparkle suit your style and can accompany you for a long time.

More jewelry ideas
Eine diamond necklace can be more than just a piece of jewelry that stands out because of its stone. It can remind you of a person, a special moment, or a personal decision. Precisely because a necklace is worn close to the body, it can become a very personal companion in everyday life. The role jewelry can play as a sign of affection and connection is shown in our journal 'Love gifts and jewelry with personal meaning'
A diamond necklace can stand on its own or become part of a layered look. The combination feels especially calm when the necklaces are different lengths and each piece of jewellery has enough space. In our guide to necklace layering, you'll find ideas on how several necklaces can be combined. There is no fixed rule for the metal colour either. Whether gold on its own, silver as a contrast, or a deliberate mix: what matters is what suits your style and the pieces of jewellery you already wear. Our journal Gold or silver – which jewellery colour suits me? helps you find your way; we also show how a mix of materials can be styled intentionally in the bicolor style guide. If you'd like to keep browsing after that, you'll find more necklaces, pendants, and materials for your personal combination in our overview of all necklaces.
After growing and cutting, the finishing process also determines how a diamond looks in a piece of jewellery. When setting it, the stone must sit securely while also being placed so that the design’s shape and light effect are preserved. Just how precise this work is is shown by gemstone setter Julia Kling in our Meet the Maker about setting diamonds. Alongside skilled craftsmanship, traceable standards are another part of material classification. The RJC recertification of Maren Jewellery was expanded to include lab-grown diamonds in 2026. We also explain transparently which role materials, craftsmanship, and other production steps play in the price of a piece of jewellery in our article The costs behind our jewellery pieces. If you would like to follow the journey of a piece of jewellery even further, you can find more insight into the work steps and partners involved on our page Jewellery production and supply chain at Maren Jewellery.

Jewelry designer Helge Maren designs your lab-grown diamond necklace
For Helge Maren Hauptmann, jewelry is something deeply personal. It preserves memories, tells stories, and often stays with us for a lifetime. This mindset shapes every piece of jewelry from Maren Jewellery.
After studying jewelry design in Pforzheim and spending many years in the industry, the designer founded Maren Jewellery in 2020 to create jewelry according to her own values: handcrafted and defined by a quiet luxury aesthetic. Using recycled gold and lab-grown diamonds, she creates pieces that do not need to be loud to make an impact—for women who value timeless design and a traceable origin of materials.
Whether it is a diamond necklace with a single point of light, a pendant with multiple stones, or a symbolic motif, the collection shows different ways to integrate lab-grown diamonds into your personal jewellery style. The combination of recycled gold, clean shapes, and carefully set stones can be worn on its own or paired with other necklaces. Would you like to discover lab-grown diamonds beyond necklaces too? In our diamond jewellery overview, you will find more rings, earrings, and jewellery pieces with lab-grown diamonds.
Frequently Asked Questions about Diamond Chains with Lab-Grown Diamonds
What is the difference between a lab-grown diamond and a natural diamond?
Lab-grown diamonds have the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as naturally formed diamonds. The key difference lies in how they are created. Natural diamonds form in the earth, while lab-grown diamonds are produced under controlled conditions. You can read more about the classification and development of lab-grown diamonds in our journal on lab-grown diamonds.
How can I tell the quality of a diamond in a necklace?
Diamond quality is typically assessed using the 4 Cs: Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat, meaning cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. Especially with a necklace, the cut strongly influences how light reflects in the stone. You can find a detailed explanation in our guide to the 4 Cs of diamond quality.
Which diamond necklace is right for me?
First consider the effect you want from your diamond necklace. A single diamond usually looks calmer, while several stones or a more striking pendant shape stand out more. The cut shape also affects the stone's appearance. In our journal on diamond cuts you can learn about different cuts and their special features.
How can I combine a diamond necklace with other necklaces?
For layering, different chain lengths help ensure that the individual pendants and stones remain visible. You can combine a diamond necklace with a simple gold chain or wear different pendants together. Above all, make sure the chains have enough space between them and that the overall look suits your personal style.
How do I care for a diamond necklace?
Diamond necklaces come into contact with skin, creams, perfume, and other residues in everyday life. Regular, gentle cleaning helps keep the surface and stone clean. Practical care tips can be found in our journal on jewelry care. For delicate settings or more noticeable signs of wear, a professional inspection is recommended instead of intensive cleaning at home.
What is the best way to store a fine diamond necklace?
Fine chains are best stored so they do not tangle with other jewelry or rub against it. Separate compartments, necklace holders, or a suitable jewelry box can help. You can find more practical ideas in our guide to jewelry storage.
Can a diamond necklace be professionally cleaned and restored?
Yes. Fine jewelry can be professionally cleaned and refurbished at Maren Jewellery. With the ReFresh service, the piece is inspected, cleaned, and polished. Minor signs of wear and surface scratches can be reduced. For a diamond necklace, the setting should also be checked if you notice that a stone or component is no longer secure.
