going to order diamond studs....Need some last minute help...

[tdenali]

Can you guys tell me what you think of these diamonds. After researching and being new to the site, I have decided to get my wife a pair of diamond stud earrings for her 30th birthday. She is 5''5", petite, and has relatively small ears, so I think I should be good with something around 1.2 ctw for everyday use. I would like to stay under $3000. From JA I believe the 3 prong martini setting is $325. What do you think of these?? I am also open to any other input or suggestions you may have. Thanks so much guys. I would like to purchase in the next day or two.

Looks good, although I like the IS image of Pair 2 better. Check to see if they are eye clean. If so, I would go for #2.

Either could make beautiful earrings, I would ask JA which pair looks best together.
