Diamond stud earrings are a must have for any woman's jewelry collection.
The most popular setting for diamond stud earrings is a four prong setting in
14k or 18k gold. The size of the diamond usually ranges from .25 carat to 2
carats each. Accordingly, the price can vary from $200 on up. If you find a
lower price, be sure to check the color and clarity to be sure its a real and genuine diamond, not
fake diamonds.
Two other popular styles are princess-cut with "V" shaped prong setting and a
round-cut with a bezel setting. Princess-cut diamonds are usually more expensive
for the same size diamond with a round-cut.
Diamond stud earrings are available in screw back and friction back. The "back"
is the part of the earring that secures the back of the ear to the post of the
earring. A screw back secures to a threaded post by turning the screw back onto
the post. This is the most secure backing for diamond stud earrings and is preferred for
expensive earrings, earrings that are not removed often, and children for
additional security. The downside is that a screw back is inconvenient
compared to a friction back.
A friction back just slides onto the earring's post and clicks into a little
groove. This type of backing makes it very easy to wear and remove. Friction
backs are suggested for everyday earrings.
