Are these diamonds natural or lab-grown?

They are genuine natural diamonds, two round-cut stones totaling 1/2 carat.

How big do 1/2 carat total studs look?

Each stone is about 1/4 carat, roughly 4 mm across. That reads as a small, subtle stud rather than a statement pair.

At this size, inclusions are usually visible only at close range. From normal conversation distance the stones read as small sparkly studs.

The setting is solid 14Kt white gold. White gold is rhodium-plated for brightness, and that plating can wear over years of daily wear.

The earrings are sold as a pair of studs; check the listing for the specific backing type included.

The line is offered in other carat sizes and in white, yellow and rose gold, so you can match a preferred size or metal tone.
