A single round-cut natural diamond stud, set in palladium white gold. Designed for collectors, for mismatched pairs, or simply for those who prefer one deliberate point of brilliance over two.
The basket is hand-built from four prongs, each filed to hold the diamond flush against the earlobe. The post is 1.0mm solid gold, the back a push-on disc with silicone lining. No plating, no hollow work, no shortcuts.
"A single stud is not half of a pair. It's a complete object. Men wear it for precision. Women wear it with another shape on the opposite ear, building their own composition. Both readings are correct."

Why a Single Stud
The single stud is not a compromise. It answers a specific want: the man who wears one small point of brilliance in one ear. The woman building a curated ear with different shapes on left and right. The collector replacing a lost half of an heirloom pair. Each case deserves the same engineering the pair gets, not a downgraded version.
How to Pair It
Most collectors order a matching single round on the other side later, turning it into a pair over time. Others pair it with a cushion, emerald cut, or heart stud from our collection, building a signature asymmetric look. We will help you plan the pairing at any point.

This is a made-to-order piece. Carat size, color grade, and metal can be adjusted before production. We source each stone from our partner dealers in Antwerp and New York after you approve the specification. Delivery is 2 to 3 weeks from approval, with insured worldwide shipping included.
