Lab-Grown Diamond Curved Bar Necklace 7 Round Brilliant 1.20ct 9ct & 18ct Gold

Seven diamonds. One continuous arc. It's a simple idea, and it's perfect.

This bespoke lab-grown diamond curved bar necklace features seven round brilliant-cut diamonds set in a gentle smile-shaped arc, suspended on a fine chain that follows the neckline beautifully. The graduated centre diamond is flanked by three stones on each side, creating a symmetrical, luminous bar that sits at the collarbone with quiet confidence. It is the kind of piece that works with everything — layered over a fine chain, worn alone against a white shirt, dressed up for an occasion — and looks genuinely expensive because it is.

Every one of the seven diamonds is graded F colour and VS clarity, giving a total weight of 1.20ct across the bar. F colour means near-colourless stones with no visible warmth; VS clarity means entirely eye-clean. With seven stones sitting side by side in open claw settings, the consistency of colour and clarity across the bar is everything — and this specification delivers it. The combined sparkle of seven well-matched round brilliants in a curved line is, frankly, quite something.

Yes, these are real diamonds. Lab-grown diamonds are physically, chemically and optically identical to mined diamonds — same carbon structure, same hardness, same grading standards. They are grown in a controlled environment rather than extracted from the earth, which is how a 1.20ct seven-stone bar necklace in F VS becomes an accessible reality rather than an aspiration.

This necklace is made entirely to order in your choice of metal: 9ct yellow gold, 9ct white gold, 18ct yellow gold or 18ct white gold. The yellow gold version has a warmth and richness that complements the curved bar shape beautifully; white gold gives a cooler, more contemporary finish. Both are exceptional. Please allow 3–6 weeks for completion — each piece is individually handcrafted at our Harrogate studio.

Product Details

Are lab-grown diamonds real diamonds? Yes, completely. Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds — physically, chemically and optically identical to mined diamonds, graded to exactly the same international standards. At Fogal & Barnes, we are proud to offer lab-grown diamonds as a contemporary and exceptional choice for fine jewellery.

What is a curved bar necklace? A curved bar necklace features a row of diamonds set in a gently arched bar that follows the natural curve of the neckline. The smile shape means the stones sit flush against the skin and catch the light from every angle as you move. It is one of the most flattering and versatile necklace styles in fine jewellery — a modern classic that layers beautifully or works perfectly alone.

What does F VS mean? F is a colour grade near the very top of the international diamond colour scale — near-colourless, appearing bright white to the eye. VS (Very Slightly Included) means the diamonds contain only minute inclusions, invisible to the naked eye. With seven stones sitting side by side in this necklace, consistency across the bar matters — and F VS ensures every stone is equally bright and clean throughout.

What is CVD? CVD (Chemical Vapour Deposition) is one of the two main methods used to grow lab-grown diamonds, alongside HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature). Both produce real diamonds with the same physical and optical properties as mined stones. CVD diamonds are graded and certified to exactly the same standards as any other diamond.

Can I choose my metal? Yes — this necklace is made entirely to order in your choice of 9ct yellow gold, 9ct white gold, 18ct yellow gold or 18ct white gold. Our team is happy to help you choose in our Harrogate showroom or over email.

How long will it take? Please allow 3–6 weeks from confirmation of your order. We will keep you updated throughout the process and ensure the finished piece arrives beautifully presented.

Is this suitable as a bridal or occasion necklace? Absolutely. A diamond curved bar necklace is one of the most popular choices for brides and bridesmaids — it sits perfectly at the neckline, complements every neckline style, and adds a continuous line of sparkle without competing with other pieces. It is equally beautiful for anniversaries, milestone birthdays or as a personal treat.

Does it come gift-wrapped? Yes. Every piece from Fogal & Barnes is presented in our signature packaging, ready to gift or to keep.
