The Bezel Mixed-Cut Diamond Tennis Necklace
Fine Jewelry | Made to order
Three cuts, set one after another around the neck — oval, emerald, marquise, each closed in its own bezel. The rhythm repeats the whole way around, so the line is continuous but never uniform.
The Piece
Each stone sits in an individual bezel, linked to the next, alternating oval to emerald to marquise. The changing shapes keep the eye moving along the necklace, while the bezels give it a smooth, modern edge with no prongs to catch. At sixteen inches it sits at the collarbone.

Why This Piece
A single-shape riviere is calm. Mixing three cuts in a repeating rhythm makes the same idea more alive — a line of diamond that changes as it moves.
Designed to Be Lived In
Every Alva piece is made by hand in 14k gold and lab-grown diamonds, and made to order after you place it. It is not set aside for occasions — it is measured by the years of wear ahead of it, not the moment it was bought.
Care
What's good is worn, not kept safe. A softened edge or a faint scratch is not damage; it is evidence of a life lived in it.
| Wearing it | Put it on last, after lotion and perfume have dried. Take it off first, before swimming, heavy exercise, or exposure to household chemicals. |
| Cleaning it | Clean with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft-bristled brush. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Skip ultrasonic cleaners on delicate settings and abrasive polishes altogether. |
| Storing it | Store separately so metal does not scratch metal. |
| Professional care | Have the setting checked once a year. White gold may need replating every few years; yellow and rose gold simply deepen in color instead. |

Cared for simply, a piece settles further into a life, and the mark it takes on becomes part of what it is worth.
Shipping
Every piece is made-to-order, built for you after you order, so timing follows the design. Simpler pieces take 2–3 weeks in production; more intricate pieces, 3–4 weeks. Your order ships at the end of that window, and tracking follows.
Shipping worldwide. International orders (outside the US) may incur import duties and taxes, set by your country and payable on delivery.
