Diamond Stud

Diamond earrings make a superb gift for any woman or indeed man if he has pierced ears! And whatever the occasion, diamond studs are an acceptable present. However, choosing diamond studs is not just a question of deciding how big the diamond should be! You have a range of alternative stud styles. So take your time to choose the pair that is exactly right for your lady! Diamond studs are one of pieces of fine jewelry which form part of a jewelry capsule wardrobe. They are so versatile they can be called an essential jewelry item. They can be dressed up or down. They look great with a pair of jeans as well as with an evening gown, business suit, joggers or even swimsuit at the beach! And they look good with any hairstyle too.

Their secret is that there are actually so many different styles of studs. They are not all the same!

When buying diamonds, whether in a diamond engagement ring, a pendant, bracelet or indeed earrings, the cut, color, clarity and carat weight of the diamond determine its price and desirability. The same is true for stud earrings.

Because diamond earrings are worn close to the face, they are especially flattering to the wearer if they have plenty of sparkle. It is essential that the diamond studs that you choose should have a good clarity rating and also have a good quality cut. But that still leaves you with lots of choice! The most popular diamond cut is the Round Brilliant, which maximises sparkle and fire of the diamond. However, Princess cut gemstones are also very sparkly and offer a real alternative for anyone wanting stud earrings which are just a little bit different. Or you could choose another diamond shape. Pear shaped stud earrings, oval shapes or even tiny heart shaped diamonds make perfectly adorable studs if you are looking for a more unusual look.

Rather than set the gemstone in yellow gold, why not choose a rose gold setting for a truly unique look? However if you love the look of white metal, remember that white gold or platinum look stunning when set with diamonds because the color of the metal enhances the beauty of the diamond.
