All Earrings

CTW means carat total weight. For a pair, it is the combined weight of all the diamonds in both earrings. Our two-diamond solitaire studs offered at 1 CTW have approximately 0.50 ct in each ear. In pavé or cluster earrings, that weight is spread across several diamonds. If a design offers a single-earring option, check the selected option before ordering.

Carat weight measures diamond weight, not the width of an earring. A cluster spreads smaller diamonds across a wider design. For example, our natural diamond pavé disc studs measure 8.5 mm across at 0.30 CTW, while our round bezel solitaire studs listed at 1 CTW use two 5 mm diamonds. Compare the finished earring measurements as well as CTW; diamond dimensions and overall earring dimensions are different measurements.

A bezel surrounds the edge of the diamond with a rim of gold, giving the stud a defined outline. Prongs hold the diamond at individual points, leaving more of its outline visible. This collection includes both settings in round and fancy-shape solitaire studs, including Asscher, emerald and pear designs. Choose the setting you prefer, then compare the dimensions and diamond specifications of the selected pair.

No. The collection includes hinged hoops, hoops with secure-lock closures and open or half-hoop designs with pushbacks. For example, our natural diamond drop hoops use a hinged closure, while the marquise-design open half hoops list pushbacks. Check the closure and measurements on the product page rather than choosing by the word “hoop” alone.

Start with the earrings she already wears: small studs, close-fitting hoops or longer drops. Round solitaire studs suit someone who prefers simple designs; Asscher and emerald studs offer a more geometric look. Floral clusters, bows and hearts give you a more personal choice, while drops add movement for celebrations. Match her usual gold color and compare the finished dimensions with a pair she owns.
