Diamond Stud Jewelry by Carl Ansley

Gemvara diamond stud jewelry are a classic that you'll wear your whole life. Every pair of our stud earrings is made to order in your choice of gems and precious metals. Most jewelry manufacturers compromise on the quality of the gems they select for earrings, choosing a lower quality than gems for rings. They'll even tell you that quality doesn't matter for earrings because you can't see them while you are wearing them. At Gemvara, we hand select each gem for your diamond stud jewelry using the same care and quality standards as we use for our gorgeous gemstone rings. Pairs are perfectly matched for maximum impact. We think classics like diamond stud jewelry should be the same investment quality as all your beautiful jewelry, a quality you'll be proud to wear. The ancient Greeks called diamond "adamas," meaning invincible, theorizing that something so beautiful must be the crystallized teardrops of the gods. Gemvara's diamonds are hand selected for fine quality: even small accent gems are H SI2 or better. Center diamonds have GIA or AGS reports confirming the exceptional quality. Gemvara's fine quality diamond stud jewelry are designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.

While designer Carl Ansley is inspired by the natural world, you'll see it most in the line and proportion of his modern pieces rather than in traditional motifs. Throughout his 22 year-career, which began at Tiffany & Co., Carl has developed a deep appreciation for the artistic process behind creating gorgeous, eye-catching jewelry. Form follows function but doesn't overwhelm it. For example, because rings can twist on the finger, he creates a natural curve high on a ring's shoulders so it will rest comfortably on the finger next to it. He takes great care to create jewelry that makes a bold statement in order to express a woman's own style and personality. Carl says the greatest accomplishment of his long career is designing and crafting his wife's diamond engagement ring and wedding band. It's just what you'd expect from a designer who thinks first of the woman who will wear his jewelry.

Produced deep within the depths of the earth over a million years ago, a diamond is one of the most well-known and sought-after gemstones in the world. The ancient Greeks called the diamond "adamas," meaning invincible and theorized that something so beautiful could only come from the gods. Romans thought diamonds must have been fallen stars. Today diamonds have become the universal symbol of "forever" and most couples around the globe mark their engagement with a diamond ring. When shopping for diamond jewelry you must keep in mind the 4Cs: color, clarity, cut and carat weight. All these factor into the quality of the diamond. Less is more when it comes to color and clarity: the gems with the least amount of color and the fewest inclusions are the most rare and valued. On the other hand, bigger is better when it comes to carat weight: the bigger the diamond, the higher the carat weight and the more it costs per carat. Cut is arguably the most important value factor because the quality of a diamond's cut gives it its life and sparkle. The diamonds Gemvara offers are exceptionally fine: a minimum G-H in color, at least SI2 in clarity, and cut to dazzle with brilliance. Diamond is the April birthstone and the gem of the 10th and 60th anniversary. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality diamond will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine diamond jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
