Diamonds: Pavé, Mosaics, and Dancing Diamonds



TREND GAME

Pavé the Way

The truism that strength is found in numbers is evident in the clutch of new collections featuring tiny diamond-set jewels. From all-pavé styles to mosaics peppered with melee, petite diamond pieces resonate with lovers of layering and budget buyers, among others. Lana Bramlette of Lana Jewelry says her Mini diamond and gold collection is about empowering women “who want to buy their own diamond jewelry.” Xiao Wang, meanwhile, loves the unique thumbprint of her small stones, which remind her of particles in a galaxy. “Tiny diamonds sparkle differently than big diamonds,” she says.
