9ct Yellow Gold Sandcast Studs with Heirloom Diamonds

These diamond stud earrings were made from our customer's remodelled heirloom jewellery - for details of the possibilities and processes of reworking your own precious metals & gemstones, please see our listing and our journal post.

These sweet diamond studs sparkled rather magnificently in person, with the heirloom gemstones being a rather sizeable 5mm each, yet still feeling dainty enough to be very wearable. 

We flush set the diamonds into a raised bezel, to frame and protect the stones while still allowing an ample canvas for imparting sandcast texture. We think the finished earrings feel both contemporary and timeless, with the rustic dappled texture and sparkly diamonds shining in harmony.

Sandcasting creates the gorgeously flecked texture by capturing grains of sand within molten precious metal, meaning a piece of your favourite place can be immortalised within your jewellery. Our Sand Collection contains over 500 sands from beaches, deserts, rivers and gardens - some hand-collected by us, most sent to us by our lovely customers from all over the world. Providing your own sand is a wonderful way to further personalise your bespoke jewellery - just pop about a spice jars worth in the post to our workshop, labelled with your name and location the sand was collected from.
