FAQs

What are diamond stud earrings?

Diamond stud earrings are single-stone earrings set close to the earlobe. They use a simple setting to hold the diamond in place and keep attention on the cut and clarity of the stone. The shape sits flat against the skin, creating a clean and minimal look that suits both daily wear and occasion dressing. Most designs are made with round or square cuts, though other shapes are available depending on the setting.

How do I choose the right diamond stud earrings?

Start by thinking about scale and how you plan to wear them. Smaller carat weights suit daily use or layering with other styles. Larger stones work well as a standalone piece. 

The setting also affects the look and feel. Prong settings allow more light to pass through the stone, while bezel settings give a lower profile. Metal choice (white gold, yellow gold or rose gold) can either match other jewellery or contrast against your skin tone. 

The earring back (push, screw or butterfly) affects how secure the fit feels.

Which diamond cut is best for stud earrings?

Round brilliant cuts are the most widely used. They maximise light return and give off strong sparkle even at lower carat weights. Princess cuts have a more angular finish and suit square settings or modern styling. Cushion cuts soften the edges with slight curves. Oval and emerald cuts offer something different, though they often work better in slightly larger sizes to show their full shape.

Can diamond stud earrings be customised?

Yes. Solitaire Jewellery offers customisation for those looking for something outside the standard range. Clients can select their preferred metal, diamond cut, carat weight and even back type. The team can also help pair the studs with matching necklaces or rings. If you need to match an existing set or are after something specific, reach out to start the design process.

How do I care for my diamond stud earrings to keep them sparkling?

Use warm water and mild soap to remove buildup, then dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid wearing them in pools or while applying products like hairspray or perfume. When not in use, store them separately in a fabric-lined box or pouch. Check the backs regularly to make sure they stay secure and bring them in for a polish or check-up if the fit changes or the setting loosens.
