Buying Guide: Gemstone Stud Earrings for Women

Diamond stud earrings are a classic accessory, but gemstone stud earrings for women can make a high-fashion outfit. While each gemstone has its own look and appeal, they can all be dressed up or down for a stylish—yet subtle--pop of color.

Gemstone earrings may convey a birthstone, represent a favorite color, or just complement a favorite sweater or dress. Unlike diamond stud earrings, gemstone stud earrings are not measured in carat weights. Gemstones are measured and sized by their diameter (measured in millimeters).
