Black Moissanite Barbed Wire Knot Stud Earrings – 0.3ct DEW Each
$89.00 USD
A strand of barbed wire, knotted and paved in black moissanite: these studs give a hard-edged street look a refined finish, with 0.3ct DEW per earring (0.6ct DEW total pair) on a knot just 14mm tall. Each earring is a crossed pair of ribbons wrapped three times by a curling wire that ends in two polished, beaded points, the way a real barb would. Around 31 round black moissanites line the ribbons and the wraps in claw-set pavé – 1.3mm stones with a few 1.1mm stones where the wire tapers. The silver edges keep the shape crisp against the dark stones. The setting is 925 sterling silver with a white rhodium (white gold tone) plating and a butterfly push-back. Black moissanite keeps the same physical credentials as colorless: a refractive index of 2.65 (a diamond's is 2.42) gives it a sharp, faceted flash even in a dark stone, and 9.25 on the Mohs scale means the pavé holds up to daily wear. Clarity is VVS. The pair weighs 2.9g in silver. Styling note: black stones on white metal are the most forgiving dark look there is – they pair with black tees, leather and denim without the high-contrast glare of an all-white iced stud. Wear one in a single piercing for an asymmetric look, or the pair with a plain chain. A strong pick for a rock or hip-hop fan, a Halloween gift or a birthday.
