Stainless Steel Earrings · Stainless Steel · MOQ 50 pcs
A stud built as a vertical stack: a smaller faceted stone sits directly on top of a large oval cabochon, the two held in separate gold-tone settings so the join reads as a step rather than a single mount. Two designs pair colour within one family — pale blue over deep blue, pale green over green. 316L stainless steel in 18K gold PVD.



Overview
This is a range, not one stud: two designs on one construction. Each is a stack of two stones, the upper one small and openly faceted, the lower one large, oval and smooth on top. They sit in separate settings — the upper stone in a slim four-prong box, the lower in an open-backed basket — so there is a visible line between them and the large stone is not hidden behind the small one. The result is a stud with height: it stands off the ear rather than lying flat against it.
The two designs differ by colour family, not by construction. One pairs a rectangular pale blue faceted stone with a deep blue oval cabochon carrying fine gold flecks; the other pairs an oval pale green faceted stone with a green oval cabochon of even, slightly mottled tone. The cabochons are cut as smooth domes with no facets, so their colour reads as a solid field, and because that cut is the point of the design we describe the shape and colour rather than a mineral. Both are quoted per design.

Materials
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| 316L stainless steel | The settings, posts and backs are 316L stainless steel, so the studs do not tarnish and the stack keeps its height in wear. |
| Cabochon stones | The lower stone is cut as a cabochon — a smooth dome with no facets — so the colour reads as a solid field; we describe the shape and shade rather than a mineral, and the dome may vary slightly between pieces. |
| Faceted stones | The upper stone is faceted and set in a slim four-prong box, which is what gives the stack its step; the gold is 18K gold PVD over the steel, and plating thickness is quoted per micron. |
316L
Every design on this page is made in 316L stainless steel — the molybdenum-bearing austenitic grade, and the same grade specified for surgical implants and marine fittings. The “L” is low carbon, which is what keeps chain links and hollow forms sound at the joins.
Grades are worth stating rather than implying, because 316L, 304 and 201 look identical in a photograph and differ by real money per tonne. We name the grade on every design. If your market needs documentation with the goods, tell us and we will confirm what is available on this design before you order.
| Property | 316L stainless steel |
|---|---|
| Designation | 316L (AISI/ASTM) · SUS316L under JIS · 1.4404 under EN |
| Composition | Chromium 16–18%, nickel 10–14%, molybdenum 2–3%, carbon 0.03% max |
| Why 316L and not 304 or 201 | Molybdenum is what resists chlorides, and neither of the cheaper grades contains any |
| Tarnish and rust | Does not tarnish, and does not rust from everyday wear, sweat or water |
| Skin | Hypoallergenic for most wearers, and not nickel-free — it contains 10–14% nickel by specification |
| Specified for | Surgical implants (ASTM F138) and marine fittings, which is where the “surgical” and “marine grade” labels come from |
Best for
A stacked stud gives height without a drop, so it sits above a hoop or beside a small stud.
Blue-over-blue and green-over-green let a small earring edit read as a set.
The large dome reads across a tray and needs no drop length to explain.
