Pair of 14k Yellow Gold Diamond Stud Earrings

This item consists of a pair of diamond stud earrings. Each earring features a single, round brilliant-cut diamond securely set in a classic four-prong basket setting. The metal appears to be yellow gold, consistent with the provided context of 14k gold. The settings are relatively petite, designed to maximize the visibility of the diamonds. The prongs are finely crafted and seem symmetrical, holding the stones firmly. The diamonds themselves exhibit typical brilliance and dispersion, indicating real diamonds as per the context. While specific clarity and color grades cannot be determined from the image, they appear to be clean to the naked eye and exhibit a natural white hue. The posts are standard friction back (or push-back) posts, secured with corresponding butterfly backs, which are also evident in yellow gold. There are no readily visible signs of significant wear, such as deep scratches or dents on the gold, nor any obvious chips or inclusions within the diamonds. The overall condition appears to be good, with a polished finish on the gold components. No specific maker's marks or hallmarks are discernible from the image, but the craftsmanship suggests a commercially produced item rather than a bespoke piece. The style is timeless and classic, suggesting they could be from a range of periods, but likely contemporary given the widespread popularity of this design.
