Geometric Star Pearl Pendant CAD Model | 72-Stone Pavé | Casting Ready

Description

The geometric star pearl pendant CAD model is built around a four-point angular star frame structurally overlaid with a circular arc band — creating an angular-circular hybrid silhouette with strong open negative space between zones. Continuous dual-row micro pavé covers all frame edges: the four star arm channels, the full circular arc surface, and the rotated square diamond-shape bail at top. The 9 mm round pearl seat floats at center within the star frame, projecting 11.18 mm (0.440″) forward from the rear plane. Total pendant height is 30.40 mm (1.197″) including bail — a commercially standard drop length for fine jewelry retail.

All 72 diamonds are uniform 1.3 mm round brilliant cuts, simplifying stone procurement and setter workflow across the entire model. The geometric star pearl pendant CAD model casts as a unified geometry with integrated bail, requiring no secondary assembly. Wax CNC reference weight is 0.39 g, confirming compact printable volume despite high pavé surface coverage. Full alloy weight data across 14K, 18K Gold (YG/WG/RG), Platinum, and 925 Silver supports direct factory costing without additional CAD modification.

Production Analysis

• Casting Readiness: High — four-point star frame and circular arc form a unified casting body with clean structural geometry. Integrated rotated square bail eliminates secondary assembly. Sprue placement recommended at bail top or lower star arm tip for clean metal flow through pavé channels.
• Stone Setting Difficulty: Very High — 72 × 1.3 mm round diamonds in continuous dual-row micro pavé across four surface types: curved circular arc, four angular star arm channels, rotated square bail face, and star arm tip zones. Multi-surface seat cutting requires experienced setter with full geometric range capability.
• Polishing Accessibility: High for outer surfaces — star arm faces, outer arc edge, and bail exterior fully accessible. Medium for inner zones — negative space between arc and star arms, and recessed pavé channel undercuts, require flex-shaft or narrow rotary tooling.
• Mass Production Suitability: Low-Medium — very high setting labor across 72 stones on complex multi-surface geometry limits volume throughput. Suitable for premium custom production, small-batch retail, and made-to-order jewelry manufacturing.
• Stone Procurement Advantage: All 72 diamonds are uniform 1.3 mm round brilliant — single size procurement simplifies inventory management and setter workflow across the full model.
• Wax CNC Reference: 0.39 g — manufacturing reference only, not finished metal weight.
• Recommended Metals: 14K Gold (YG/WG/RG), 18K Gold (YG/WG/RG), Platinum (PLAT/PLAT RU), 925 Silver.

Market Fit Analysis

• US Market Fit: High — Art Deco geometric star frame pearl pendant aligns with US contemporary fine jewelry and fashion-forward bridal demand. Four-point star silhouette delivers clear visual differentiation from standard round halo pearl pendant formats.
• Etsy Compatibility: High — geometric Art Deco pearl pendant performs in Etsy vintage-inspired, statement fine jewelry, and bridal pendant search categories. Full pavé coverage supports premium Etsy price positioning.
• TikTok Jewelry Potential: High — open geometric frame with full dual-row pavé generates strong sparkle in close-up video content. Four-point star silhouette remains readable at small screen scale across product showcase and styling content.
• Pinterest Visual Appeal: Very High — geometric star frame pearl pendant generates strong thumbnail differentiation in pearl necklace, Art Deco jewelry, and diamond pendant Pinterest discovery categories.
• Commercial Flexibility: High — open 9 mm pearl seat supports Akoya, freshwater, Edison, and South Sea pearl substitutions. Uniform 1.3 mm stone size and multi-alloy weight table enable flexible production across silver entry-level through platinum premium tiers from a single CAD file.

FAQ

Q: Does the uniform 1.3 mm stone size across all 72 diamonds simplify production procurement?
A: Yes. Single-size stone procurement eliminates multi-SKU stone ordering and reduces setter preparation time. All pavé zones — star arms, circular arc, and bail — use the same 1.3 mm round cut, enabling a single stone lot to cover the entire model from one purchase order.

Q: Can the four-point star frame casting maintain clean wall integrity at the star arm tips?
A: Yes, with correct sprue placement. Star arm tips are the highest-risk fill zones in casting. Sprue placement at the bail top or lower star arm base ensures clean metal flow through the pavé channel arms to the tips. DLP/SLA wax printing at 0.39 g wax CNC volume produces accurate tip geometry for reliable casting results.

Q: Is this geometric star pearl pendant CAD model suitable for platinum production?
A: Yes. Platinum weight data is included for both PLAT (8.74 g) and PLAT RU (8.98 g) alloy variants. The unified frame geometry and clean pavé channel structure cast reliably in platinum. Polishing labor is higher in platinum versus gold but the open negative space between arc and star arm zones maintains tool accessibility throughout.
