Clarity – refers to the number of imperfections found in your diamond. Imperfections or inclusions affect the way light is reflected by the stone, so the clearer the gem, the more expensive it is.
Carat – refers to the size of the diamond with one carat equal to about 200 mgs. An honest diamond seller will have jewelry marked with 'ct' for carat or 'ctw/tcw' for total carat weight. When buying earrings with diamonds, look for the tcw. Earrings are bought in pairs and so they should have two diamonds of equal size.
How to care for your pearl and diamond earrings
Pearls and diamonds may look good together as components of an earring, but their contrasting characteristics can actually affect their care. Pearls are softer gems because they are organic while diamonds are the hardest gemstones in the world. Pearls can get easily scratched or damaged if you are not careful about their storage so the best thing to do is, tailor your care on the weaker gem which is the pearl.
It's not a good idea to store pearls with other hard jewelry. To keep your jewelry in good shape, try to store them in the box they were bought in. Each earring will have a separate hole where it can safely stay. This way, there is no danger of one of the diamonds scratching the pearl of the other earring.
Once you found your favourite things would you excite? I would. So when I see some tin cup pearl necklace. I am very excited, especially pearl jewelry wholesale. There will be a lot of sterling silver jewelry, cultured pearl pendant, cultured pearl earings, cultured pearl ring, cultured pearl bracelet, pearl necklace, cultured pearl strands, cultured pearl beads … on showing. You can get whatever you like in wholesale pearl jewelry store.
