How do I choose a diamond earring?

Every jewellery wearer is unique, and every set of custom diamond earrings they add to their collection should align with their distinctive tastes. Choosing the best diamond earrings for your personal style comes down to your level of expressiveness and the occasions you plan to wear them for. 

When creating a stack to surround an everyday diamond earring, it will help them stand out as the main accessory, creating balance in your look. Pairing them along with a minimalist piece from our chain necklace collection will add depth without overwhelming your look. Pair your delicate diamond earrings with a stack that attracts attention without being overtly demanding. 

What is the most popular setting for diamond earrings?

With options like bezel, four-prong basket, and 3-prong martini, popular settings for diamond stud earrings, each can alter how your accessories appear in your ear. Though each has its own aesthetic qualities, both bezel settings and 4-prong options are best known for their durability. 

Luxury pieces within our collection each utilise a different combination of design qualities, including the settings in which their precious stones are held. Our coveted Maya Emerald Sapphire Engagement ring holds its stone nestled within the band using a 4-prong setting, creating a durable yet stylish look. Pairing this ring with a set of diamond cluster earrings creates a stack that evokes luxury in your ritual, every day that you reach for them. 

What are the different styles of diamond earrings available?

With their universal appeal, the Camile & Stone NZ range features a mix of diamond hoop, stud, and drop earrings to suit every aesthetic. Whether you prefer a more subdued style or are looking for a standout set, our curated collection can help you create your dream stack. 

Creating a stack with your newfound accessory is simple, whether you prefer a single pair of earrings or lean toward multiple pieces in one ear. For an intricately curated ear architecture, our Dangling Sapphire Hoop Earrings are incredibly popular. Add them to your daily edit, and let the intricate details of your ear stack shape the rest of your ensemble. 

What is the difference between diamond stud and hoop earrings?

Each pair of diamond earrings has its own unique qualities, with the main difference between a diamond stud and a diamond hoop earring being the shape of the accessory. Diamond studs set the stone flush against the ear and can take many forms in their design. Diamond hoop earrings, on the other hand, are circular accessories that hang from a loop and can range from minor to statement. 

Hoop earrings are among the most coveted in New Zealand, and their versatility lets you choose a set that suits your aesthetic. From bolder, more statement pairs to more subdued pairs, adding a set to your stack creates a stunning contrast piece for diamond hoop earrings, styling them casually. 

What are the latest trends in diamond earring fashion?

Jewellery trends in 2026 are leaning heavily into a narrative aesthetic, with opulent designs, and popular diamond earrings are reflecting this energy. Heritage-inspired designs and vintage timelessness are recreated in every piece, creating collections that speak to the wearer's factual background. 

Evolving trends inspired by vintage traditions are among the most prominent muses for our artisans; see ranges like our Photo Locket collection. Holding a compartment specially designed for you to carry your most important images, the modern design reflects the evolving contemporary jewellery landscape. With our photo printing service, you can pair a set of vintage diamond earrings with the necklace of your choice without having to worry about awkwardly cutting out miniature images. 

Are there particular diamond shapes that work best for earrings?

The unique nature of traditional diamonds comes from their mined origin, and each shape is crafted to complement the chosen earring design. Whilst these stones are undeniably stunning, our artisans wanted to align our ethical standards with our production for lab-created pieces. 

This allows us to curate any shape, so your custom diamond earrings can be in whichever shape you prefer. Our full range of lab-grown precious stones is available in our Moissanite jewellery range, with each modern accessory featuring a sustainably curated piece of luxury. 

How to choose the right diamond earrings for men?

Despite their feminine origins, the subtle nature of many minimalist diamond earrings means they can easily fit into men’s jewellery collections. Choosing the correct set means selecting options that reflect your personal taste and align with the rest of your stack. 

Whether you’re creating a jewellery collection for the first time or simply exploring more options in your growing edit, adding a men’s necklace to a stack is a timeless choice. Align it with your men’s diamond earring to create an eye-catching, yet masculine, aesthetic. 

How to care for and clean diamond earrings?

Despite the quality of our durable diamond earrings, some gentle self-care tips will ensure that your premium pieces retain their quality for years. Gently washing them in warm water and non-abrasive soap will remove any dirt that accumulates over time. A high-quality jewellery polishing cloth will help return their original shine. 

Curating a jewellery edit allows you to explore trends from years gone by, and the ageless appeal of diamond earrings is becoming one of the most popular choices today. Add a set of Camile & Stone NZ diamond earrings to your collection, and embrace the unique shine they add to your daily life.
