Among all the forms in which a diamond can be cut, a round brilliant cut is the most iconic. The image that comes to the mind when we consider a traditional diamond is the silhouette. Such long-lasting fame was not an accident. During more than 100 years, diamond cutters have perfected the round cut to give it a level of shine beyond imagination. This classical design when placed in a pair of earrings is versatile and can hardly be matched by any other jewelry. They are an essential part of a complete jewelry collection, a very minimal but great statement of elegance that can be used in all seasons of life.
A round diamond is magic because it is meticulously designed. The round brilliant cut is a technological wonder that is usually composed of 57 or 58 facets, all with an angle calculated to bend the light. As the light penetrates the diamond it reflects off these internal surfaces and gets back to the eye producing a glittering effect. It is this light that makes a diamond what it is. It is said in three ways; first, as the coming back of the white light; second, as the flash of color that you observe in the movement of the diamond; third, as the play of the light and dark spots that makes it a sparkling look. The round cut is designed to bring out the best in all three and the cut seems to be alive and bright.
It is the natural glitter that renders round diamond earrings highly versatile. Daily wear A pair of low key studs will give a stylish touch to it without being flashy. They have the ability to bring you out of a morning appointment to an evening out with friends and there is a faint touch of glitter that accompanies any dress. They present the image of a sophisticated and detail-oriented person in a professional setting. They are visible in a way that makes one value them and yet not very conspicuous as to be distracting. The same earrings can easily change to a more formal one when a more formal event occurs. Coupled with a nice dress and an updo, they concentrate on the face and become the important element of the glamorous outfit.
When you are planning to buy a couple of round diamond earrings you should know some of the main points that will inform your decision. The 4Cs of diamond quality, which are Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat, are applicable to earrings as much as they are applicable to rings. The most important aspect is still cut since it determines the capability of the diamond to shine. With earrings, you are free to be a bit more liberated in terms of color and clarity. It is also the reason that little inclusions or minor tints of colors are much more invisible since they are seen far and in motion, whereas they would have been visible in an engagement ring. This will enable you to give priority to a higher carat weight or better cut due to your budget.
The setting that holds the diamond is also a significant consideration, as it impacts both the style and security of the earring. Prong settings are the most common for a reason. A classic four-prong design, seen in pieces like the Classic Round Prong-Set Solitaire Lab-Grown Diamond Stud Earrings offers a secure and traditional look. For those who prefer a more modern and minimalist aesthetic, a three-prong martini setting is an excellent choice. This design, featured in the 1.00Ct Three Prongs Martin Setting Labgrown Diamonds Studs, uses less metal and allows the diamond to sit snugly against the earlobe.
Other setting styles offer different aesthetics. A bezel setting, where a thin metal rim fully encases the edge of the diamond, provides maximum security and a sleek, contemporary feel. For those seeking to maximize sparkle and perceived size, a halo setting is a wonderful option. In this style, the central round diamond is encircled by a ring of smaller diamonds. This not only adds an extra layer of brilliance but also creates the illusion of a much larger center stone. You can see examples of this stunning design in our collection of lab-grown halo rings.
