Frequently Asked Questions

Is the piece solid metal or plated?

The piece is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass). Its visible surface is bright white and reflective, while the underlying alloy is formulated without lead and gives the piece its shape and weight.

What does the 4mm stone measurement refer to?

The 4mm measurement refers to one round cubic zirconia accent stone, not the full pair. The earrings use more than one stone, and their 1.1 ct figure is the total stone weight across all cubic zirconia. Each stone is held in a prong setting.

How do the prong settings hold the stones?

The round cubic zirconia is prong set. A prong setting grips a stone at a few points, leaving the rest open so more light can reach it from the sides than with a closed setting.

How to Care for Your 1.1Ct Vine Design Rhodium Earrings

1. Clean the piece with soap, water, and a soft cloth.
2. Avoid polishing compounds and dips, which can thin the plating.
