These are the essential and classic cultured pearl stud earrings, done beautifully with exquisite round Akoya cultured pearls set on posts of 18k yellow gold with secure push back closures for pierced ears. The highest quality choice for gold jewelry, 18k gold provides superb color and excellent durability. Akoya cultured pearls are known for their deep luster and their lovely color--usually white with rose overtones. The pearls in these earrings can be expected to range between 8 and 8.5mm--large for Akoyas--and they will have good luster and slight to medium spotting.
Pearl stud earrings are one of the most versatile pieces of jewelry a woman can own--understated enough for everyday wear, sophisticated and refined in a professional setting, and shimmering and elegant with evening wear.
