Questions about this piece

Are these sold as a pair?

Yes. You receive two matching earrings.

Are the diamonds lab-grown?

Yes. They are laboratory-grown diamonds, chemically and optically diamond, and labeled as lab-grown on the receipt.

What does CTW mean?

CTW is total carat weight: the combined weight of every diamond in the piece, across both earrings for a pair. One carat is 0.2 grams.

Is the gold color permanent?

Plated, vermeil, and gold-filled finishes are layers over another metal. Gold-filled layers are thick and last for years; plating is thinner and wears gradually with friction, lotion, and chlorine.

Will white gold turn yellow?

The rhodium plating on white gold wears slowly with daily use and can reveal a warmer tone underneath. A jeweler can re-plate it quickly, usually every one to three years.

Can I wear them in the shower or pool?

Take them off to swim, bathe, or use a hot tub: water, soap, and chlorine wear plating faster, chlorine in pools and hot tubs can weaken karat gold alloys over time, and soap and lotion film dulls diamonds. If they get wet, rinse in clean water and pat dry.

How fast will it arrive?

In-stock options typically leave within one to five business days after payment is captured. Insured ground shipping is free; next-day and Saturday upgrades are offered at checkout.
