Our take on the Diamond Solitaire Earrings 1/5 ct tw 10K Yellow Gold (J/I3)

These are small princess-cut diamond solitaire studs in 10K yellow gold with a white gold plate on the setting, totaling 1/5 carat across both ears. The J color and I3 clarity grade means visible inclusions and a warm tint, which is normal at this size and price. Friction backs hold them in place but are the simplest, least secure style. The latest best price is $159 at Distritech as of November 3.

Questions and answers

Is $159 a good price for 1/5 ct tw diamond studs?
Yes. Small 10K gold diamond studs at this weight typically run $150 to $250, so $159 at Distritech as of November 3 sits at the low end.
Will I see the inclusions at I3 clarity?
Likely yes up close. I3 is the lowest graded clarity, so expect visible spots and a less brilliant stone, though at 0.1 ct per ear they are small.
Are these too small for everyday wear?
No. At 5.6 mm wide they read as delicate studs, which suits daily wear. If you want a noticeable sparkle, go up to 1/2 ct tw or more.
What is in the box?
The pair of earrings with friction backs. Kay's Lifetime Diamond Commitment covers the stones, but check the paperwork that comes with your order.
Do the friction backs stay on?
They hold for normal wear but are the least secure back type. Replace them with screw backs if you wear them often or are active.
When is the price lowest?
Diamond studs usually dip during holiday sales and post-holiday clearance. Watch the price history and buy below the recent range.
