FAQ

Will the color I see on my screen match the earrings in person?
Diamond brilliance and the contrast between blackened white gold and yellow gold can read differently depending on the light, and your monitor adds its own variation on top of that. Screen settings, video cards, and browsers can all affect color slightly, so the earrings you receive may look a bit different than what you see here. By purchasing, you're acknowledging that possibility. If you'd like a true look before buying, we're happy to walk you through it over video chat.

What creates the dark finish?
The oval frames are made from blackened 14K white gold. This deliberate surface treatment creates the dramatic contrast around the diamonds.

Are these earrings sold as a pair?
Yes. The earrings come sold as a pair.

How should blackened gold jewelry be cared for?
Because blackened finishes can change with wear, avoid abrasive cleaners and polishing cloths. Store the earrings separately and ask us for care guidance or professional service when needed.
