The mix of straight-edged baguette cuts and classic round stones means these don't just sparkle. They flash. As you move, you get two different kinds of light play from one small stud, which makes them much more interesting than a simple solitaire.
This is a pair of solid gold stud earrings. Each one is a small, asymmetrical cluster of six stones: four rectangular, baguette-cut cubic zirconia and two small, brilliant-cut round ones. The baguettes are set in smooth gold channels, while the rounds are held by tiny prongs. The whole arrangement sits on a slight diagonal, like a little burst of light climbing up the earlobe. The back is a standard post and butterfly closure.
We make these from solid 14 karat gold, not plated. It's 58.3% pure gold alloyed for strength, which means itโs tough enough to handle being put in and taken out daily without bending the post. The colour is a permanent, warm yellow that won't tarnish or fade over time. Because itโs solid gold, it's also a good choice if you have sensitive skin. The stones are high-grade Cubic Zirconia, cut precisely to catch and reflect light from every angle.
- Material: Solid 14K yellow gold
- Stone: Baguette and round-cut Cubic Zirconia
- Closure: Post with butterfly back
- Sold as: A pair
People choose these when they want something more than a simple diamond stud but don't want a hoop or a dangle earring. The cluster shape gives you a bit more coverage on the lobe, and the mix of stone shapes has more visual texture than a single gem.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Constellation Earrings sit the same way on both of my ears?
No, the Constellation Earrings are identical, not mirrored. This means on one ear the cluster will angle slightly upwards, and on the other, it will angle slightly downwards. Many people like this subtle asymmetry, but you can also wear them in different piercings for a scattered look.
Is it safe to sleep in my 14k gold Constellation Earrings every night?
Yes, you can sleep in them. Solid 14k gold is durable and won't tarnish from contact with your skin. However, the posts can poke you, and over time, sleeping on them can put pressure on the settings. We recommend taking them out for the most comfortable sleep.
How do the Constellation Earrings fit in a second or third lobe piercing?
They work very well in upper lobe piercings. The small, clustered shape sits neatly and can create a 'constellation' effect when paired with other studs. Just be sure your piercing is fully healed before wearing any new jewellery, especially something with a post back like this.
What happens if I receive the Constellation Earrings and they're not what I expected?
