Our take on the Éthique 14k Gold Over Silver 1 Carat T.W. Lab-Grown Diamond Halo Stud Earrings

These are halo stud earrings from Éthique: round lab-grown diamonds in a prong-set halo, 1 carat total weight, on sterling silver plated with 14k gold. The center stones are 7/8 carat with FG color and VS-S1 clarity, and the earrings measure about 7.75 mm across. The gold plating keeps the price well below solid gold, though it will wear over time.

Questions and answers

Is 1 carat total weight big enough for everyday studs?
Yes. At about 7.75 mm across, the halo makes them read larger than a plain 1 carat stud, which suits daily wear without looking oversized.
Will the 14k gold plating wear off?
Plating on sterling silver does wear with friction, sweat and cleaning. Expect the gold tone to thin over months of daily wear, especially on the posts and edges.
Are lab-grown diamonds real diamonds?
Yes. They are chemically and optically the same as mined diamonds, just grown in a lab, and they cost less on the secondary market.
How do these compare with solid 14k gold studs?
Solid gold costs several times more but will not fade or tarnish. These give the same look for far less, with the trade-off of plating wear.
What is in the box?
The pair of earrings with post backings. Presentation varies, so check the listing for a gift box if you plan to give them.
When is the best time to buy?
Lab-diamond and gold-plated jewelry sees the deepest discounts around major sales events and holiday periods. Watch the price history and buy when it sits near its recent low.
