These stud earrings are made from 14k yellow gold with platinum settings, which optimizes the colour of the diamonds.
Each stud is set with an Old European-cut diamond, a cut which essentially is an early version of our current, modern round brilliant-cut. Each diamond has an estimated weight of circa 0.70 carats, with a good colour (H-I) and some minor inclusions which are not very noticeable but can be seen with the naked eye (pique quality).
These stud earrings are fitted with large pusher closures, which helps ensure they sit nicely upright on your lobe when worn.
