Actually, Argos is the only place I've found so far that has anything in the style I'm looking for:

Except I don't want it plated, and it needs to be a square-cut or similar. But that's the right kind of thing, all these other sites have more complex designs - I'm looking quite minimalist here, essentially a stone on a chain.

Are you in London, d000hg? If so, pop along to Hatton Garden, if not try this.

Thanks for any tips.

Sorry for lack of detail. I'm specifically looking for a silver necklace (simple elegant silver chain) with a single stone. Ideally it would be diamond but that would be more like £500 for a decent stone, so zirconia or similar would be OK.

And yes I guess £50 might be a bit low, let me revise to £100-200.

£50-£100 sounds like cheap tat to me and hardly worth researching. You get what you pay for etc..
