Understanding This Piece
About Topaz
Topaz occurs in a wide color range — from colorless to imperial orange-pink (the most valuable), as well as blue, yellow, and brown. Most commercial blue topaz is colorless natural topaz that has been irradiated to produce the vivid sky, Swiss, or London blue tones. Topaz scores 8 on Mohs (very durable for daily wear) and is the November birthstone (alongside citrine) and the 4th- and 23rd-anniversary gems.
About Platinum
Platinum is naturally white, hypoallergenic, and the densest precious metal used in fine jewelry — typically 95% pure (versus gold's 58.3% for 14K or 75% for 18K). It holds diamonds more securely than any gold alloy, never tarnishes, and develops a soft patina over years of wear that many buyers prize. Platinum costs roughly 1.5–2x equivalent 14K white gold but eliminates the rhodium-replating cycle and carries the strongest long-term durability of any setting metal. It is the standard for premium engagement rings and eternity bands.
About Fashion Stud Earrings
Fashion studs go beyond the single-stone classic — incorporating clusters, halos, geometric shapes, animal motifs, sculptural metalwork, or mixed-stone combinations. They sit close to the earlobe like classic studs but bring more visual distinction and design language. Fashion studs are particularly popular for clients who want a daily-wear earring with more presence than a plain solitaire stud.
