How to Select Diamond Earrings


Many people like the glitter and sparkle of diamonds and it is not for without reason that the saying that diamond is a girl's best friend is so popular. Nevertheless, while the most common form of setting for diamonds are necklace or on a ring, diamonds are actually found on other jewelry items as well. You might have seen celebrities wearing small diamond earring studs and they indeed look fabulous. If you are looking to purchase a set of diamond earrings you may be delighted to note that there are a variety of styles for diamond earrings besides the small stud earrings.

Diamond earrings can be fashioned into dangling earrings also known as chandelier earrings where gold or platinum are studded with smaller diamonds and there are also hoop styled earrings either accented with just a few diamonds or the whole ring can be studded with diamonds as well. It is also important to consider the type of metal your earrings are set in. While generally people prefer diamonds to be set silver colored metal such as white gold or platinum, diamonds also look gorgeous on classic yellow gold. Some fanciful rose colored gold is also available on the market at certain stores.

After selecting the style of your choice, you may now want to look at the price and shape of the diamond on your earrings. Since the style of the earrings may require more diamonds than a finger ring, it is understandable that some earrings may cost more than a normal diamond ring. In addition, if the diamonds are made of larger carat stones, they will increase the value and price of the earrings as well.
