Round Brilliant Cut Stud Earrings
A pair of classic solitaire stud earrings featuring round brilliant cut colorless gemstones, likely diamonds or high-quality diamond simulants such as cubic zirconia or moissanite. Each stone is securely set in a traditional six-prong mounting, which provides a symmetrical crown-like appearance and enhances the stone's stability. The metal appears to be a white-tone precious metal, potentially 14k or 18k white gold or platinum, based on the bright silver-colored sheen and lack of immediate surface tarnish. The gemstones exhibit high dispersion and light return, consistent with modern brilliant faceting. Given the relative size against a human finger, each stone is estimated to be between 0.50 and 0.75 carats (roughly 5mm to 6mm in diameter). The condition appears excellent with no visible chips or fractures to the stones, though a microscopic examination would be required to assess clarity and internal inclusions. The prongs appear well-maintained and tightly gripping the girdles. This style is timeless, quintessential of late 20th-century to contemporary jewelry design. The lack of visible hallmarks in this view suggests they are located on the posts or butterfly backings, which are not visible here.
