Here are a few tips from the experts that will ensure you get everything you want and more from your little touch of luxury to understand how to buy the best diamond stud earrings.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING DIAMOND STUD EARRINGS?

As each diamond is born with its unique characteristics, buying a pair of diamond studs requires some level of technical understanding and gemmological knowledge.

To get the most beautiful diamonds studs and the best value for your budget, here are some quick tips that you will want to consider when buying a pair of diamond studs:

1. CHOOSE THE COLOUR OF YOUR DIAMONDS (GIA COLOUR SCALE)

The beautiful thing about diamonds is that they come in a variety of colours, and they also come in a huge range of degrees of purity. This means that you can easily shop around for hours if you’re unsure about which colour you want to go for. Don’t be alarmed though because there’s no right or wrong answer when it comes to diamond jewellery. It’s all about finding something that suits your style and you fall in love with. You’ll know your perfect match when you see it.

Buying a D, E, or F colour on diamond stud earrings would be a waste of your money. Nobody will notice highly graded diamonds, nor will they notice that one diamond is G colour, while the other H.

WHAT IS THE BEST COLOUR AND CLARITY FOR DIAMOND STUD EARRINGS?

Unlike buying a diamond ring, colour and clarity are not so important when shopping for diamond stud earrings; and, also diamond stud earrings can be obscured by long hair.

Clarity is a measure of the inclusions and blemishes inside and outside of the diamond. The higher the clarity grade of a diamond, the clearer the diamond, however, this doesn’t translate to how sparkly a diamond is. The clarity of a diamond is graded from FL (Flawless) to VS2 (Very Slightly Included), down to I2 (Included). However, the best clarity for diamond stud earrings is SI1 (Slightly Included); although, it is unlikely to see its inclusions and blemishes with the naked eye. While the most expensive diamond studs are a higher clarity like VVS1 (Very, Very Slightly Included), which should be avoided to save costs.

The colour of a diamond stud earring can be graded in two ways; from the colourless scale, which is applicable for colourless diamonds, and the coloured diamonds. At the top of the scale are colourless diamonds which are graded with a D, while the diamonds at the bottom of the scale are graded with a Z; which are diamonds with yellow or grey hues. It’s advisable not to buy diamonds at the top of the colour scale, as we don’t often view earrings up close, and it's unlikely for someone to tell if your diamond studs are an E or a G. However, H-J colour grades are the best for diamond stud earrings as they’re just as good and will save you money on your purchase; plus, H colour diamonds and D colour diamonds look nearly identical and share similar features; with H grade being more affordable.

2. CHOOSE WHICH TYPE OF CUT YOU WANT

All Diamond Shape

The cut grade of the diamonds is one of the most important factors when choosing a pair of diamond studs. You will want the cut grade to be between Excellent and Good to get the liveliest diamonds.

The cut of a diamond doesn’t just impact on how bright it shines when it dances with the light. It can also dramatically change the overall look of the earring by changing its shape. The secret here is to find a shape that you feel comfortable with and that matches your face shape. Once you get that right you’ll be able to choose something that really brings out your natural beauty so that the whole room turns in your direction when you make your entrance. Ideal if you’re looking for a timeless piece of jewellery that you’ll be wearing with pride for years to come.

3. CHOOSE THE CLARITY GRADE OF YOUR DIAMONDS

While the clarity grade will depend on your budget, it is not advisable to emphasize clarity. Since most diamond stud earrings are small in size, a lower clarity grade will be barely noticeable when worn.

4. CHOOSE THE CARAT OF YOUR DIAMONDS

You will want your diamonds to have a similar carat weight. Ideally, both studs should have a maximum difference in carat weight of 0.05. That is, if a diamond weighs 0.80 carats, its counterpart should be at most 0.85 or 0.75 carats.

5. CHOOSE A GOOD SIZE FOR DIAMOND STUD EARRINGS

There’s no exact answer to this question as the ideal size for diamond stud earrings depends on your personal taste and its price. Personal taste comes down to the colour, cut, and setting; while the price comes down to the 4Cs. There’s no one size fits all when it comes to diamond stud earrings as everyone has their own unique taste. As such, the size that may be perfect for one person could be too big or small for another person.

However, the most popular size for diamond stud earrings worn by most women is 1ctw. 1ctw (carat total weight) features two 0.50 carat diamonds, with each pair of 0.50-carat diamonds measuring around 5mm in diameter. This size is more popular than the others because of its versatility, as it can be worn both every day and for special occasions; and a lot of women find this size to work beautifully well for them with both casual and upscale clothing.

It is important to understand carat total weight (ctw) when shopping for a pair of diamond stud earrings to avoid mistakes. With that said, the carat total weight, which is the weight of the diamond within the studs will be listed whenever you’re shopping. So, if you want to get a pair of 1ctw round diamond studs, each of the two diamonds within the pair of diamond stud earrings will weigh 0.50ctw. Ultimately, the final decision for the best size comes down to personal taste and budget. The most important factor to note is that the diamond stud suits your need; whether for everyday wear or for special occasions.

6. CHOOSE THE BEST SETTING FOR DIAMOND STUD EARRINGS

The two major things to consider when choosing a setting are the design of your setting and your choice of backing. The two best setting designs to choose from are prong and bezel settings.

a) PRONG SETTING: This setting exposes the diamond, enabling more of the stone to be seen. This setting allows more light into the diamond, which causes it to sparkle more, and also makes it appear a bit larger. However, prong settings a bit more upkeep to ensure they do slip out of place thus, resulting in the potential loss of your stone. This means occasionally getting the setting checked.

b) BEZEL SETTING: This setting circles the diamond almost completely, mostly showing only the top of the diamond thus, providing protection to the diamond against any wear and tear, and also providing security from being dislodged.

In the case of diamond stud earrings, there are also other things to consider when choosing a setting. You’ll want to consider a setting that enhances sparkle, maximize the size of your diamond, and provides security for your diamond.

a) SETTING THAT ENHANCES SPARKLE: To maximize your diamond sparkle, opt for the least amount of metal on the stone as fewer metal equals more diamond being visible to the eye. Opt for a setting with 3 or 4 prongs as an eye-catching choice.

b) SETTINGS THAT MAXIMIZE THE SIZE OF YOUR DIAMOND: Prong settings also maximize the size of your diamond, as it covers the least amount of the surface of the diamond thus, exposing the diamond more. If you’re looking for a larger sizes diamond, opt for a prong setting to expose as much of the surface of the diamond as possible.

c) SETTINGS THAT PROVIDE SECURITY OF YOUR DIAMOND: The main security concern of a diamond stud is ensuring the diamond doesn’t fall out of its settings. The best security for your diamond is offered by a bezel setting, as a thin metal strip is pushed around the gem to secure it; which also means a part of the diamond’s surface area will be covered. However, a white metal bezel can make a colourless diamond appear larger even while it provides the best security.

7. PICK THE RIGHT MATERIAL FOR THE SETTING

The setting is the final thing to pay attention to on our quick-fire list. It brings the piece to-gather into an intricate whole, and the style and shape will have a huge influence on the overall look and feel.
