Diamond Studs
Diamond platinum studs are truly things of beauty. Both the diamond and platinum are some of the rarest of their kinds. Diamonds are the hardest substance known to man. In addition, over 250 tons of earth has to be mined just to find one decent one-carat diamond. Platinum is the rarest of the precious metals, and it can be used in a purer form than the other metals. About 160 tons of platinum are mined every year. If this seems like a lot, compare it to its gold counterpart at approximately 1,500 tons per year.
Diamond Platinum Studs are not inexpensive. However, they will last lifetimes. If you have any doubt as to the simplistic beauty and richness of these earrings, just look at the red carpet of the 76th Annual Academy Awards. Diamond studs were making their entrances! Diane Lane showed up wearing six-carat, emerald-cut diamond studs. That's three carats per ear!
Jada Pinkett Smith, wife of the much-adored Will Smith, was dazzling in emerald-cut diamond studs that hung from a wire. Another famous face sporting the same stud-on-a-wire look was the always humorously outspoken Joan Rivers. Representing the top musical artist with diamond stud earrings was Gwen Stefani. In addition, for the younger, early 20s crowd, Selma Blair showed up with radiant-cut diamond studs.
