Detailed Description
These earrings are designed for those who value quiet confidence over loud statement. The elongated oval shape — often called 'marquise' or 'eye-shaped' in fine jewelry — draws attention to the face while maintaining understated grace. Each stone is carefully set using traditional prong techniques for security and light exposure. The leaf motif is delicately sculpted into the earring backplate, visible only upon close inspection — a thoughtful detail for the wearer, not just the observer. Whether worn solo for weekday polish or layered with other studs for curated ear curation, they transition seamlessly from office meetings to weekend brunches. Their neutral gold tone complements cool and warm skin tones equally, making them an inclusive choice across diverse personal styles.

Q&A
Are these earrings hypoallergenic?
They are made from 925 sterling silver — a widely tolerated base metal — and plated with 18K gold. While not certified hypoallergenic, many customers with sensitive ears find them comfortable for daily wear. As with any jewelry, individual sensitivities may vary.
What does '2EX cut' mean for the moissanite?
'2EX' refers to Excellent cut for both symmetry and polish — the highest standard for moissanite craftsmanship. This ensures optimal light return, scintillation, and visual brilliance, closely resembling the performance of a top-tier diamond.
Do they come in gift packaging?
Yes — each pair arrives in a sleek, matte-finish FITINY gift box with a soft inner cushion, ready for gifting or personal storage.
Is the gold plating durable for long-term wear?
The 18K gold plating is applied using a multi-layer electroplating process to enhance wear resistance. With proper care — avoiding abrasion and moisture exposure — it maintains its luminous finish for months of regular use.
Can I wear these daily, including while sleeping or exercising?
We recommend removing them before sleep, swimming, or high-sweat activity to preserve both the plating integrity and stone setting. They’re ideal for daytime wear, work, and social occasions.
What’s the difference between moissanite and cubic zirconia?
Moissanite is a lab-created gemstone with higher hardness (9.25 on Mohs scale), greater dispersion (fire), and superior durability than cubic zirconia. It’s also more environmentally responsible and retains its brilliance longer with everyday wear.
