Hello All
I am considering buying a pair of RBC diamond studs for my wife. However, it has been an expensive year (E-ring, wedding, new house plus loads more), added to which she WILL lose one at some point, so I do not want to spend a kings ransom.
She has very fair skin, blonde hair and small ear lobes, so I am thinking I need to keep the colour reasonably good, but size does not need to be huge.
Questions:
1. How coloured do you think I should go, given her skin tone?
2. How matched does a pair of stones need to be for earrings?
3. Am I better off buying the stones separately and having them made into earrings, or buy a matched pair, or just buy the earrings ready made?
4. Do you think that .25Cwt stones will look reasonable on a small ear (think 12 year old child sized ears!), or should I go larger?
I am thinking of going for a prong setting.
Any other thoughts about diamond studs gratefully received.
