2. Unveiling the Shimmering Metal Mystery

The metals most commonly used to make earrings are platinum and gold with gold being available in multiple possibilities such as white gold, yellow gold and rose gold. All these metals are exceptionally durable and ensure the diamonds held within the earrings are safe and secure. This ensures the diamond earrings can be worn daily without the worry of anything happening to the diamonds and also ensures the earrings will last a long time and always look as good as new.

4. The Captivating Setting: Uniting Diamonds with Dreams

What type of setting do you want in your diamond earrings? This decision consists of what diamonds you would like to use as the centrepiece of your earrings. At Mark Solomon Jewellers we also offer the option to combine diamonds with your favourite gemstones. Below is an example of our Emerald and Diamond Halo Earrings which combines the exquisite nature of the diamonds along with the unique Emerald. The halo of diamonds allows for a glowing effect which allows for the colour of the Emerald to be enhanced.

An important aspect when choosing your setting is considering the 4 Cs of your diamonds which are: Cut, Clarity, Colour and Carat weight. Many people tend to think this decision is unnecessary for earrings, however, it is important to ensure your diamond earrings are of high quality as this contributes to their sparkle and longevity.
