Pear Shape Gemstone Stud Earrings

A ruby pear 4X3 MM is prong set at each lobe in these studs, the tapering outline giving the precious gemstone a softness that a symmetrical cut would not carry. The rounded body holds the red at its fullest before narrowing to a point, so the stone reads longer than its measurements suggest and lifts the line of the ear. Slender prongs hold it at the edges, leaving the surface open so light enters from every direction and the color stays lively. Crafted in 10 karat yellow gold, the warm metal surrounds the stone and settles the whole design into one rich tone. Worn in a first piercing or a second, the shape flatters either position, and the color carries far beyond what the measurements would suggest. It is a small stone that is never overlooked. Graceful and easy to wear, they need no addition.
