The classic design and bright color make these studs a versatile choice for any jewelry lover. Ideal for gifting or treating yourself, these earrings embody elegance and sophistication, ensuring you shine on every occasion. Stamped '14k' on the butterfly backs, the studs have been independently verified as 14k Gold. These circa 1980s earrings weigh approximately .73 grams and are in excellent condition. The pinkish hue of the gemstones is closest in person to the image of the studs held in tweezers in the second image.

The Star Ruby is one of nature’s most mesmerizing optical illusions, combining the deep, passionate red of a traditional Ruby with a celestial phenomenon known as asterism. When light hits the microscopic Rutile needles (often called "silk") within the stone, it reflects back a shimmering, six-rayed star that appears to float across the surface. Historically revered as a "victory stone," it was often worn by ancient warriors to provide protection and guidance in battle. Today, it remains a rare treasure, prized not just for its rich chromium-infused hue, but for that magical, dancing star that serves as a reminder of the hidden brilliance found within the earth.
