It's not just girls with pierced ears nowadays, but quite a few of us guys have pierced ears with earrings in them. Personally I prefer the 4 prong basket setting for my diamond stud earrings. I originally had the 3 prong martini style earrings, but found the sharp point of the earring base worked its way into the piercing holes, irritating them and making the entrance to the holes bigger. Earlobes are much more comfortable with the 4 prong ear studs as the base of the earring where it joins the post, sits flat against the earlobe.

I debated this like crazy: 4-prong vs. 3-prong vs. 6-prong. I decided on 6-prong for my 4cttw solitaires because it made the stones look bigger and rounder. The 4-prong makes round solitaires look too square, IMO.

[@gemradiant6350]

Both settings are lovely. I love the delicacy of the settings, allowing for the diamond to shine. Your craftsmanship is wonderful!! I love the basket as shown here- delicate yet strong! ❤

[@ByBonnieJewelry]

Absolutely! Also, I love the way you put it! Delicate yet strong.

Martini 3-prong settings are perfect for “mature” earlobes! Just saying. Big disc backs are a must.

This was so helpful!!!! Love your videos! ❤

[@debraturner4559]

I did have this question and know you read my mind and did this video just for me! Mind reader, Bonnie!

[@ByBonnieJewelry]

[@ByBonnieJewelry]

Glad you enjoyed it, dear 😍 so happy I could help!

[@jo5712]

Thank you!!!! This was incredibly helpful. I know exactly what I’m looking for now.

[@ByBonnieJewelry]

Yay we're so happy our content was helpful to you!

[@joannievh2071]

OMG! 😱Think I'll start saving for diamond studs! I never went ahead because the piercing on my right ear isn't straight and makes a lot of earrings look droopy. That martini setting is screming my name! ❤️

[@ByBonnieJewelry]

YAY! Well so happy you've find the diamond stud setting that is right for you!

[@-NewDay-]

I had my jeweler create a low profile to my 3ct studs. 4 prong. I don’t like how the martini feels. Also, bezel setting is pretty too.

[@mariamarie1911]

I have .80 total for the pair, lol, I wish either setting would make them look bigger, but I don't think that's going to happen, I actually graduated to this size from a half CT. Looking at these makes me feel like I haven't even started school yet!

[@LeNguyen-im8dm]

My favorite video. I have watched for multiple times. LOL.

[@ByBonnieJewelry]

Yayyyyy :-)

[@makeupnmedicine]

Mine are 4 prong basket and they do hang a little but I have small lobes and the idiot that pierced me pierced way too low. I tried to let them close up for years and they never did. I do wonder if a Martini setting would help them show up more. But I do worry about them digging into my ear.

[@momma-kins6241]

Yes!!! Thank you!! I tried researching this for MONTHS, & NOTHING!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤😍

[@feridunginise5717]

Can you tell me what the price would be for labgrown diamond studs, best colour ,cut,clarity for a total off 6 CT’s? So 3 ct each

[@miriamismail5092]

Hey bonnie please could you do a video on oval solitaire stud earrings in larger carat size too xxx

[@ByBonnieJewelry]

Will keep that in mind! Thank you for your support

[@sangavipreethi1578]

Hi!! What about the 6prong one!! 4 or 6prongs which is better!?

[@judyhayes2010]

Thank you so much for this excellent video. I recently inherited my mothers 4 prong diamond earring studs. 1 carat each. I do not take them off. They have a screw on back, but they droop on my flimsy ear lobes. Sometimes they look like they are falling out, but they are screwed on tight. How can I stabilize them and still use the screw on backs that came with them?

[@seema.locker1]

Hi you get little rings that you place at the back of the your earlobe before putting on the screw for the studs. Adds more support to the droopiness.

[@farhatali2763]

Best bonnie super quality diamond's

[@KarenNg-gd1yz]

Thank you so much for this! Does the martini setting allow more light to the diamond? With the 4 prong basket covering more of the surface of the side of the diamond, will it appear less sparkly?

[@ByBonnieJewelry]

Hi dear! Great questions. No matter the martini or the 4 prong, both styles allow as much light to enter the diamond as possible. Both styles will also be just as sparkly, as long as you have the same quality diamond for each ear!

[@sharonattard2625]

Hey Bonnie, apart the beautiful studs wish to compliment You on the amazing Hair!..simply gorgeous! ❤️🥰

You are so sweet, Sharon!

[@cmhendrick]

Are these diamonds 3 or 4 carat?

[@momma-kins6241]

My earrings (2ct ea) are set in a martini setting & while they do NOT DROOP, the diamond feels loose! I've had it tightened TWICE (these were purchased b4 I knew about Ms Bonnie). It drives me CRAZY. 1st, I thought it was caused by wearing my mask, & I had them tightened. Then it happened again! I'm EXTREMELY GENTLE w/ my jewelry, don't even wear them frequently! I also take all my jewelry off when I get home!! I thought it was d/t the martini setting, but now I see this & NOPE!! Pleeeese HELP!!😭❤

What about bezel setting

[@skm1121]

What about for lower carat weights. 1 or less...

[@lizfohr]

What about 4 prong martini?

[@lmjewel8641]

Hi Bonnie, do you ever use IGI certified stones? If not, can you please explain? I have seen many sellers offer IGI stones which tend to be more cost-friendly than GIA stones. I am unsure what the significant difference is other than grading standards but are stones lower quality?
