Dome Pavé Pearl Pendant CAD Model | 60-Stone STL 3DM JCD

Description

This dome pavé pearl pendant CAD model is structured as two casting components — a hemisphere dome cap and a rectangular pavé bail — connected via a standard jump ring post-casting. The dome cap carries the full 60-stone graduated pavé layout across its curved crown surface, with stone sizes ranging from 1.3 mm to 1.8 mm distributed across four groups. The open lower rim of the dome cradles a 10 mm round pearl, which projects below the cap edge and remains exposed for full pearl visibility. The rectangular bail runs a 5-stone linear pavé column along its vertical face, creating a secondary diamond zone above the dome.

The dome cap geometry is DLP/SLA printable with a smooth outer convex surface and no undercut risk on the exterior face. Inner dome cavity orientation requires standard support placement during resin printing. The jump ring connector is a standard cast or fabricated finding — no specialized assembly tooling required. This jewelry CAD model delivers a high-specification production asset: 0.818 CT total diamond weight across 60 stones, full multi-metal weight data, and compatibility with both Rhino 7+ and JewelCAD 5.x production workflows.

The dome pavé pearl pendant CAD model supports multi-pearl-color SKU production without file modification. Tahitian black, South Sea golden, and Akoya white pearls all seat correctly within the open lower rim cradle at 10 mm round diameter.

Production Analysis

• Casting Readiness: High — dome cap is single-body casting geometry; rectangular bail is a separate cast piece; jump ring is standard finding; no complex interlocking geometry
• Stone Setting Difficulty: High — 60 stones across curved dome surface in four size groups require experienced pavé setter and precision sorted stone placement; dome curvature increases seat alignment complexity; bail 5-stone linear setting is straightforward
• Polishing Accessibility: Medium — dome outer convex surface fully accessible; inner dome cavity and dome-to-jump-ring junction require flex-shaft tool access; bail interior channel needs careful attention
• Mass Production Suitability: Medium — dome cap and bail geometry scale well for wax printing; 60-stone setting labor increases per-unit production time; recommended for skilled production lines
• Assembly Note: Jump ring connector requires one post-cast assembly step before stone setting; standard production workflow
• Repair Friendliness: Medium — dome pavé repair requires careful curved-surface access; pearl replacement is straightforward via open bottom cradle without structural disassembly
• Recommended Metals: 14K Gold (YG/WG/RG), 18K Gold (YG/WG/RG), Platinum (PLAT/PLAT RU), 925 Silver

Market Fit Analysis

• US Market Fit: Strong — 0.818 CT dome pavé cap at 10 mm pearl positions this model in the upper fine jewelry and luxury retail segment; competitive specification for branded South Sea and Tahitian pearl collections
• Etsy Compatibility: Medium — production complexity and price point position this above standard Etsy volume; suited to Etsy fine jewelry and luxury handmade sellers targeting high-value pearl pendant buyers
• TikTok Jewelry Potential: High — dense multi-row diamond dome above large pearl generates exceptional sparkle-to-surface ratio; highly effective under video lighting conditions
• Pinterest Visual Appeal: Very High — dome pavé crown with contrasting pearl drop photographs exceptionally in both white gold and yellow gold colorways; South Sea and Tahitian pearl variants both perform strongly
• Commercial Flexibility: High — open 10 mm pearl seat accommodates multiple pearl type and color variants from a single production file; dual diamond zones (dome + bail) support strong retail price positioning across gold and platinum alloys

Dome Pavé Pearl Pendant CAD Model — FAQ

Q: Does the dome cap CAD file include the rectangular bail and jump ring, or are these supplied as separate files?
A: The STL and 3DM files include both the dome cap and rectangular bail as separate castable bodies. The jump ring is a standard finding sourced independently. All three components are included in the file package for complete production planning reference.

Q: Is the 60-stone dome pavé layout optimized for a specific stone size sequence, or can the setter adjust placement order?
A: The CAD model places stone seats in a defined graduated sequence — larger stones (1.7–1.8 mm) concentrated at the dome crown center, graduating to smaller stones (1.3 mm) toward the lower rim. This sequence follows the dome curvature taper and should be maintained during setting for consistent surface coverage and structural seat integrity.

Q: Can this dome pavé pearl pendant CAD model support South Sea golden pearl production as well as Tahitian black pearl?
A: Yes. The open 10 mm lower rim cradle accommodates any round pearl at 10 mm diameter regardless of type or color — Tahitian black, South Sea golden, South Sea white, and freshwater round all seat correctly. Multi-colorway SKU production requires no modification to the casting file.
