- Is $1,150 a fair price for 0.5 ct lab-grown diamond studs?
- It is on the high side. Comparable 14K white gold lab-grown studs of 0.5 ct total commonly sell for well under $1,000. The premium here is mostly the Swarovski brand and the Galaxy setting.
- What does 0.5 ct tw mean per earring?
- It means the two earrings together hold 0.5 carat of diamonds, so each earring is roughly 0.25 ct. That is a modest size, around 4 mm per stone.
- Are lab-grown diamonds real diamonds?
- Yes. They are chemically and optically identical to mined diamonds, just grown in a lab. They are not cubic zirconia or moissanite.
- What is in the box?
- Expect the pair of earrings and their backs in Swarovski packaging. Confirm with the seller whether a certificate for the diamonds is included, since listings do not always state it.
- How should I clean them?
- Soak in warm water with a drop of mild soap, brush gently around the prongs with a soft brush, and dry fully. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners on cluster settings.
- When is the best time to buy?
- Swarovski runs seasonal promotions, often around holidays and mid-year sales. With only one store listing these, watch for a direct Swarovski markdown rather than comparing stores.
- Where is the Swarovski Galaxy stud earrings, Laboratory grown diamonds 0.5 ct tw, 14K white gold cheapest?
- At Swarovski, for $1,150.00, as of our latest check.
