Sterling Silver Diamond-Accented Circle of Life Pendant Necklace
Unbranded (Likely Department Store or Fashion Jeweler) · Jewelry & Watches > Necklaces > Pendants
Era / Decade
Modern / 2010s-Present
Material
Likely .925 Sterling Silver with pavé-set diamond chips or Cubic Zirconia (CZ). The greyish tint suggests sterling silver that may have slight oxidation.
Condition
Fair to Good. The chain is severely tangled/knotted, which is a major condition detractor. The pendant itself appears intact with all stones present.
Demand Level
Moderate. Minimalist jewelry is consistently popular, but unbranded silver pieces are common in the resale market.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$15 (as-is/tangled) - $45 (untangled and polished)
Estimated Retail Value
$50 - $125 (depending on if stones are real diamond accents or CZ)
Comparable Sales
Similar sterling silver diamond-accented circle necklaces consistently sell for $20-$40 on platforms like eBay and Mercari when cleaned and functional.
Description
Dainty 'Circle of Life' open-hoop pendant necklace featuring a continuous row of pavé-set clear stones. The pendant hangs from a fine cable-style chain. Elegant, minimalist design suitable for daily wear or layering.
Key Features
Timeless 'Circle of Life' symbolic design; versatile silver-tone finish; pavé setting provides significant sparkle even with small stones.
Authenticity Indicators
Requires inspection for a '.925' or 'Sterling' stamp on the clasp or back of the pendant. Confidence level: Medium (it is a standard mass-market design).
Flaws to Note
Significant knotting/tangling of the chain which will require time and precision to undo. Minor surface tarnishing visible on the metal.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark, Mercari, or eBay. These platforms are best for small, easy-to-ship jewelry items with lower price points.
Selling Tips
You must untangle the chain before listing to achieve maximum value. Use a needle and a drop of mineral oil to loosen the knots. Photograph against a black velvet or white card background. Use keywords like 'Classic', 'Minimalist', 'Eternal', and 'Dainty'.
