Diamond earrings in 14K gold: a timeless sparkle

Questions and answers

Are these real diamonds?

Yes, they are genuine diamonds, but the total weight is only .010 carat, so each stone is a tiny accent. At I3 clarity the stones are heavily included and won't look clean and bright like higher grades.

Will the screw backs stay on?

Thread-on clutch backs screw onto the post, so they hold better than push-on backs and are harder to lose. The trade-off is that they take a few extra seconds to fasten and remove.

Is $236.25 a good price?

Macy's lists them at $236.25 as of November 4, 2026, and it is the only new price we track. Without other stores or a longer price history, there is no way to call it a deal or a markup.

Can I wear them every day, including in the shower?

14K gold handles daily wear and water well. The main risk is snagging the small stones, so take them off for gym sessions and heavy cleaning.

What comes in the box?

Expect the earring pair and backs in Macy's jewelry packaging, which is fine for gifting. A diamond grading report is unlikely at this carat weight and clarity.

Are they a good gift for a first pair of diamond earrings?

They work as a low-key first pair because the gold is real and the size is modest. If the recipient expects visible sparkle, spend more on a higher clarity grade or a larger total weight.
