Ella Essential Solitaire Stud Earrings

The Ella Essential Solitaire Stud Earrings are a single round brilliant 5A cubic zirconia on a rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver post, held in thin, simple claws. Choose 4mm, 5mm, 6mm or 7mm. They’re sold as a pair with a butterfly push-back, and arrive in a mini pouch with a polishing cloth.

A classic you’ll never outgrow

There’s a reason the round solitaire stud never goes out of style. It suits every face, every outfit and every age. Ella keeps it pure: one bright stone and nothing extra. The claws are deliberately thin, so there’s less metal around the stone and more room for light to reach it. The result is a clean, lively sparkle.

Choose your size

The 4mm is a quiet point of light, ideal for an upper-lobe piercing. The 5mm is the easiest choice, visible without feeling bold. The 6mm gives sparkle you’ll notice, and the 7mm makes a confident statement. Or wear two sizes together, larger at the lobe and smaller above, for a softly graduated ear.

A light setting, worn with care

Ella’s thin claws are made for gentle wear rather than heavy-duty use. Take your studs off before sleeping, exercising or pulling on knitwear, and check the claws now and then. Sterling silver can also darken over time, so keep the studs dry, away from perfume and lotion, and stored in their pouch.

For her. For the one you love. For you.

FAQ

Which size should I choose?
The 4mm is subtle and suits an upper-lobe piercing. The 5mm is the most versatile, visible without feeling bold. The 6mm gives noticeable sparkle, and the 7mm makes a confident statement. If you’re unsure, start with the 5mm.

Are the stones real diamonds?
No. Ella is set with 5A cubic zirconia, a high-grade lab-created stone cut in the classic round brilliant shape.

How sturdy is the setting?
Ella’s claws are thin by design. Less metal means more of the stone catches the light, but it’s a light setting, not a heavy-duty one. Take your studs off before sleeping, exercising or pulling on knitwear, and check the claws now and then. If a claw looks lifted, stop wearing the studs until they’ve been checked.

How is Ella different from the moissanite solitaire studs?
The moissanite studs use a harder stone that keeps its brightness longer, with thicker claws for a more secure hold and a screw-back closure. Ella is the lighter, classic option in cubic zirconia, with a thin claw setting for an open sparkle.

Can I wear Ella in my helix or cartilage?
We don’t recommend it. Butterfly backs are made for lobes. For cartilage piercings, choose the Basic CZ Barbell Studs.

Will Ella tarnish?
Sterling silver can darken over time, and rhodium plating wears gradually, faster in humid weather. Take your studs off before showering or swimming, keep them away from perfume and lotion, and store them dry in their pouch.

How do I use the polishing cloth?
Use it on the silver post and claws only, not on the stone. To brighten the stone, rinse it gently in warm water with a drop of mild soap, then pat dry.

Are they suitable for sensitive ears?
Rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver is well tolerated by most people. If your ears react easily to metals, MNML’s pure titanium pieces are the most reliable choice.

Are they a good gift?
Yes. A classic round stud is one of the safest gifts there is. If you’re unsure of their style, choose the 5mm.
