Are these real diamonds?

Yes. They are round white diamonds totaling 1/4 ct. t.w., graded I-J color and I2-I3 clarity. That is a low clarity grade, so inclusions are visible up close.

Each earring is about 1/4 inch in diameter. That is a small stud, closer to a dot than a statement piece.

Will the sterling silver tarnish?

The silver has a white rhodium finish, which slows tarnish. Store them dry and wipe them after wear to keep the finish bright.

What backs do they use?

They use a post and friction back, the standard push-on style. Friction backs can loosen over time, so check them before wearing.

Are they good for a gift?

Buyers often give them for birthdays or to a mom at Christmas, and the classic stud style suits most ages. Check the recipient's preference for small studs first.

Are they worth it over a lab-grown pair?

At 1/4 ct. t.w. in I2-I3 clarity, these are a budget natural-diamond option. Lab-grown or higher-clarity studs cost more but look cleaner and whiter.
