Sterling Silver 6 Prong Moissanite Screwback Earrings w/ GRA Certification

Round moissanite stones take center stage in these sterling silver studs, held in six-prong settings that frame each stone’s outline. Screwback closures fasten onto threaded posts, while the choice of silver finish or 14K gold plating offers two distinct metal tones.

Choose a smaller stone for a restrained accent or a larger diameter for a more prominent look. Compare the millimeter measurements with earrings you already own to judge the scale; the setting adds to the overall profile beyond the stone itself.

From the Founder

"Single stone-set studs are just another foundational staple piece that easily complement a wide variety of style applications. Unisex by default, they add a bit of extra brilliance to each outfit choice. Not to mention, these moissanite gemstones are premium grade; they do exactly what you hoped they would. They like to dance."

Fit & Wear

Use the stone diameter to compare sizes, rather than relying on carat labels alone. Smaller diameters give a more understated appearance; larger stones occupy more space on the earlobe.

Turn each backing gently onto its threaded post, leaving a comfortable fit without overtightening. Check both backs before wearing. Remove before sleeping or activities where hair, clothing, or equipment could catch the posts or prongs.

Materials & Care

The Gold option is plated, not solid gold. Plating can wear over time, and neither finish should be treated as scratch-proof. Sterling silver can naturally tarnish.

Wipe gently with a soft, non-abrasive cloth after wear. Remove before showering, swimming, or exercising, and keep away from perfumes, lotions, chlorine, and household cleaning products.

Store separately in a dry pouch or lined jewelry box. Avoid abrasive polishing cloths, silver dips, and harsh cleaners on the gold-plated option. Avoid ultrasonic cleaning on the plated finish, and seek a qualified jeweler’s guidance before using dips or steam on these gemstone-set earrings.

Check the screwbacks and prongs regularly. Stop wearing the earrings if a backing or stone feels loose. Consult the sterling silver and gold-plated care sheets in the product images, following the guidance appropriate to your finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the listed carat size refer to one earring or the pair?

Each size option states the listed carat size per earring, not the combined pair. For example, the 5 mm option is listed as 0.5 ct per earring.

Will the gold plating stay unchanged permanently?

No. Plating gradually wears through use and contact with other surfaces. Gentle cleaning, separate storage, and avoiding chemicals and abrasion help preserve the finish.
