1.60 ct. t.w. Synthetic Moissanite Stud Earrings in 14kt White Gold

STUD: An earring that sits stationary on the ear and doesn't drop below the lobe.

WHITE GOLD: Gold is a precious metal which is naturally quite soft. To give it a white color and increase its strength, gold is alloyed with white metals, such as silver and/or palladium, and often plated with rhodium. The purity of the metal is indicated by a unit called a "karat," with 24kt having the highest percentage of natural gold.

POST/CLUTCH: An earring with a post insert and a slide-on clutch backing to hold it in place.

MOISSANITE: An exceedingly rare near-colorless gemstone prized for its bright shine and rainbowing facets. Many feel that moissanite is a good alternative to diamonds, especially since it has a more striking brilliance. Because it is so uncommon, most moissanites on the market are synthetic. All of our moissanites are lab-created to ensure the highest quality for the best value.

BRILLIANT: A gemstone cut to enhance brilliance without sacrificing much carat weight. Typically has 58 facets.
