# Lotus Marquise Moissanite Stud Earrings 14K Gold Filled

## Open Like a Lotus.

Three marquise moissanite open like a lotus across the lobe, each stone tipped with a single gold bead and gathered at the base by a cluster of four more.

The three marquise stones fan upward from a bead cluster so the outline reads as a lotus or an opening leaf. It is not a three-stone trilogy, which sits in a straight line, and it is not a halo, which rings a single center stone. Best for: sensitive ears, anyone who has lost an earring to a push back, a second or third piercing, wearing through workouts and overnight, people who want presence across the lobe rather than a bigger single stone, and anniversary or milestone gifting. Gift occasions: anniversary, wedding, birthday, Mother's Day, Christmas, Valentine's Day, graduation, milestone gift, just because. About the product Three 8x4mm marquise moissanite fan open like a lotus across the lobe, each stone held by a single gold bead at its tip and gathered at the base by a cluster of four more. Each stone is 0.5ct diamond equivalent weight, so there is 1.5ct on each ear and 3ct across the pair. The earring measures 16.3mm wide and 10.6mm tall, roughly the width of a fingernail, and because the shape spreads sideways it covers more of the lobe than a solitaire stud of higher carat weight without hanging below it. The post is threaded and the back screws on rather than pushing on, which is the most secure closure there is. The gold is a solid 14K layer, at least 5% of the metal weight, bonded to a 925 sterling silver core under heat and pressure and stamped 1/20 14K GF 925. A GRA report is included and the earrings are sold as a pair. Q: Why Choose the Lotus Marquise Moissanite Stud Earrings? A: Three marquise moissanite fan open like a lotus across the lobe, each tipped with a single gold bead. At 16.3mm wide they cover more of the ear than a solitaire stud without hanging from it. Every stone is D color VVS1 cut to Excellent grade, and moissanite rates 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale, just below diamond at 10, so it holds its brilliance through daily wear. Q: How Big Do They Look on the Ear? A: Wider than most studs. Each earring measures 16.3mm across and 10.6mm tall, roughly the width of a fingernail, and the fan shape spreads that width sideways along the lobe. The three stones total 1.5ct per earring and 3ct for the pair, but the look comes from the spread rather than the carat weight. Q: What Is a Screw Back and Why Does It Matter? A: The post is threaded and the back screws onto it rather than pushing on. It cannot be knocked loose, which is the usual way an earring is lost, so these are the kind you can wear through a workout, a night's sleep or a day of pulling clothes over your head. They take a few seconds longer to put on, and that is the trade. Q: Are They Safe for Sensitive Ears? A: Yes. The post that passes through the piercing and every surface touching your skin is 14K gold, and the earrings are nickel-free and lead-free. Nickel is behind most jewelry reactions, which is why these stay wearable for people who cannot keep costume earrings in. Q: What Is 14K Gold Filled? A: A thick layer of solid 14K gold, at least 5% of the metal weight, is bonded to a core metal under heat and pressure. That gold layer is the surface you see and touch, so the warm color comes from real gold and holds through years of everyday wear. On these earrings the core is 925 sterling silver and each is stamped 1/20 14K GF 925. Q: Will They Tarnish or Fade? A: No, not with normal wear. The gold is a solid bonded layer rather than a surface coating, so the color comes from the gold itself. Put them in after perfume, hairspray and sunscreen rather than before, since those are what dull gold fastest, and keep them away from chlorine. Q: Can I Sleep or Shower in Them? A: You can sleep in them - the screw back is the most secure closure there is. Showering is the bigger issue: shampoo and conditioner leave a film that dulls the stones, and the gaps around three bead-set stones are exactly where residue collects. Take them out before swimming and keep them away from chlorine. Q: Will They Pass a Diamond Tester? A: Yes. Moissanite reads as diamond on standard pen-style testers because it conducts heat much the way a diamond does. A jeweler's combined moissanite and diamond tester will correctly identify it as moissanite, which is what you would expect. A GRA report is included. Carat weights are approximate diamond equivalent weights (DEW).
