Frequently Asked Questions

What metal are the earrings made from?

The earrings are crafted in 14K white gold, rhodium plated over gold, which gives the metal a bright white finish. The rhodium layer sits over the gold and helps the piece resist tarnish.

What kind of pearls are used, and how big are they?

Each earring features a 9mm cultured black pearl sourced from South Sea waters, with medium luster, medium nacre, and a clean surface. The pearls are rated Good to Very Good for uniformity.

How many diamonds are on the piece and what is their total weight?

The piece is set with 40 round diamonds in a micro-pave setting, totaling 0.196 ct. The diamonds are graded I-J color and SI1-SI2 clarity, and are natural with no treatment.

How do the earrings close, and what should I know about caring for the pearls?

The earrings close with a push back. Because pearl luster comes from layers of nacre, the pearls are softer than the diamonds and should be kept away from perfume, hairspray, and household cleaners.
