- Are these real diamonds?
- They are lab-grown diamonds, which have the same carbon structure and hardness as mined diamonds. Each pair is IGI certified for color and clarity.
- What does D–E, VVS–VS mean?
- D–E is the top color grade, meaning the stones look colorless. VVS–VS means very slight inclusions that are hard to see even under a loupe.
- How do lab-grown studs compare with mined ones?
- They look the same to the eye and are graded the same way. The main difference is resale value: lab-grown stones resell for much less than mined stones of equal grade.
- What is the total carat weight?
- The pair totals between 1 and 8 carats depending on the size chosen, so each stud carries half the total. Larger totals mean noticeably bigger stones on the ear.
- What comes in the box?
- A matched pair of studs in 14k gold with prong-set diamonds. The IGI certification covers the stones.
- Can I wear them every day?
- Yes. 14k gold and diamond are durable enough for daily wear. Prong settings can catch on hair and knitwear, so check the prongs periodically.
