Frequently Asked Questions

What metal are these earrings made of?

The piece is crafted from rhodium plated .925 white sterling silver. The rhodium plating gives the surface a bright white finish and helps protect the silver underneath from tarnish.

What are the diamond details?

This piece carries a total diamond weight of 1 carat across 26 round diamonds set in a 4-prong setting. The center stones are blue, color treated, with I2-I3 clarity, surrounded by a halo of H-I color round diamonds of the same clarity.

How do the earrings close?

The earrings use a screw-on backing. This type of closure is a secure option for stud earrings compared to a simple friction back.

Is the plating on this piece permanent?

No plating is permanent, and this holds true for the piece as well, since rhodium is a surface layer over the .925 sterling silver base. With the care steps listed - keeping it dry and stored separately - the plating will hold up over time before it may eventually need reapplication.

How to Care for Your .925 Sterling Silver 1.00 Cttw Blue Diamond Halo Stud Earring

1. Wipe the piece with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear to remove oils and residue.
2. Store the earrings in a separate pouch or lined box to prevent the rhodium plating from scratching against other jewelry.
3. Clean the diamonds occasionally with a soft brush and mild soapy water, then dry with a soft cloth.
4. Remove the earrings before swimming, bathing, or applying lotions and perfumes to protect the rhodium plating.
5. Avoid rubbing or abrasive cloths directly on the plated surface, since polishing too hard can wear the rhodium layer over time.
