Often seen as a protective talisman, black spinel offers much of the sparkle of black diamonds
Some people see black spinel as having mythic qualities, as a talisman of protection and a gem able to ward off negativity and signify wisdom. Others see it simply as a gorgeous shiny black stone that twinkles like a black diamond when light hits the facets. However you view it, no jewelry collection is complete without these "little black studs."
Pick the perfect jewelry for your unique vibe!
Functionally black and very dainty, these pull double duty as "little black dress" earrings and a witchy jewelry find. They would be great for goth jewelry, Dark Academia looks, and subtle men's earrings. These look great in yellow gold as well as white metals like white gold and platinum.
Solid Platinum, 14k gold, and silver post earrings:
Solid recycled precious metal secures your gems using traditional master goldsmithing techniques. We never use glues, cheap lightweight settings, or plated metals. Comfortable and wearable for active lifestyles and those who sleep in their earrings. Nickel free with the exception of 14k white gold. Our studs are renowned for comfort and quality that stands the test of time. Support clean luxury and set yourself apart from "fast fashion" jewelry with these small-batch handmade earrings.
How to choose a stud earring size:
3mm is a tiny stud earring perfect for cartilage and multiple piercings. 4mm is a dainty stud earring that also works well for cartilage piercings. 5mm is a good minimalist everyday stud earring size. 6mm is large, but still casual. 8mm are statement stud earrings with a bold look.

What to know about gemstone jewelry:
Gems (yes, even lab created gems!) are individual pieces of nature's art with minor variations in pattern, color, size, and shape. Gem sizes can vary +/- .2mm. Often, large gems are darker than small ones. I do promise you'll be happy with them, and accept exchanges as well as special requests like "Prefer darker green over lighter" which I will do my best to match within my stock. Some gems are fragile and should not go in an ultrasonic or steam cleaner.
