Question 1

What does carat weight (t.w.) mean for studs?

Accepted Answer

Total carat weight (t.w.) is the two diamonds added together, so a pair marked "1 ct t.w." holds about half a carat in each ear. A higher total carat weight means bigger studs. When you compare pairs, compare the total carat weight and the price side by side.

Question 2

Which carat weight should I choose?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the look you want — smaller studs for every day, larger for a statement. Compare a few weights before you choose.

Question 3

Can I get studs in a shape other than round?

Accepted Answer

Round is the classic diamond stud and the most brilliant. Every stud here is a certified lab grown diamond.

Question 4

What earring back is most secure?

Accepted Answer

A screw-back threads onto the post and locks in place, so it is the most secure back for everyday wear; a push-back is quicker to put on. Check the back is closed before you wear them.

Question 5

Are lab grown diamond studs real, and are they worth it?

Accepted Answer

Lab grown diamonds are diamonds, the same material and hardness as mined, each graded by IGI or GIA. They are worth it if you want a diamond stud for a fraction of the mined price, so your carat weight goes further.

Question 6

How much are lab grown diamond studs?

Accepted Answer

The price depends most on the total carat weight and the metal. A lab grown pair costs a fraction of the same mined-diamond pair, so you get more carat weight for your budget. Prices change daily, so we show today's live prices below instead of a fixed figure.

Question 7

Which metal can I choose?

Accepted Answer

Every pair comes in 14K or 18K gold — yellow, white or rose — or in platinum. Solid gold and platinum posts suit sensitive ears. White gold and platinum keep the diamonds bright and icy; yellow and rose gold give a warmer look.
