Wow, I love that diamond lotus!! That’s on my wish list!! Did you have any issues with this piece not being secure? Do you wear this piece everyday? Is there any discomfort when sleeping?
Hi I totally love this piece. It’s really secure as it screws into the base from the top. it’s the largest Lotus as it has most impact. I wear it every day but I sleep with airplane pillow and place Head in that opening. The only issue is that you have to make sure the post size is correct or it will cause irritation. I was dealing with that so I removed till it calmed down and then readded with the shorter post. Now no issues.
I also have several pieces from Maria Tash, diamonds and gold.
My piercing master says they’re not good quality and different closures are made to keep clients spending money. And I see that some of them are changing color too. Sometimes I buy things from my piercing master, he has a huge collection, also diamonds and gold, and very comfortable.
I also have many things from Djula and La Bella, but they’re as pricey as MT.
Djula in particular is one of my most favorite jewelry brands actually.
La Bella is from Dubai not sure if they’re located anywhere else. But they have beautiful piercing pieces.

Maria Tash has come out with a new collection that I can’t get out of my head…faceted gold studs and charms. I definitely hear the concerns about her pieces being overpriced and not great quality (mostly about clickers not closing properly), but I haven’t seen anything like this by another make. I’m considering the 6.5 mm pear in white gold as a statement piece in my third high lobe piercing.
Has anyone seen these IRL? Thoughts? Anything similar from other makes?

Really? Do you know the name of the collection? But in any case, Tiffany doesn’t make flat back studs. I wish more brands made earrings appropriate for 24/7 wear!
Yes, I don’t believe they have flat back studs. I think it’s in the Elsa peretti line?
Not sure if it's still relevant, but I've just recently seen these IRL. The earrings were super shiny due to the faceted design, kind of like if you imagine a diamond made of gold. Probably the fingerprints would be visible on these of you touch your ears often as they have mirror like finish. Very pretty.
I like Maria Tash, especially the invisible set diamond line. I agree that it's grossly overpriced if you think of diamond prices, but I haven't been able to find any other brand that does an invisible setting. I just the love the look of the floating diamonds, so I keep buying from MT.
I wish Maria Tash was slightly cheaper but all my every day earrings are from there now, which is 3 in each ear, as I can leave them in and they’re really comfortable
I had read a few bad reviews about the earrings so I started buying them gradually but so far they’ve been great. I’ve got a mix of flat back studs and diamond hoops and haven’t had any problems with them at all. I’ve only changed the flat backs once but they’ve never come lose and the hoops I do take out and swap with more costume pieces from time to time and fortunately I’ve had no problems with them coming lose or anything like that, just to give my experience as it has been positive.

I have Maria Tash and do love my pieces but have recently discovered Kimai as shown in the photos attached, also love my Anita Ko mini safety pin earring for stacking.
Her invisible diamonds are the best out. My jeweler tried to make me one and it wasn’t good. Didn’t lay flat properly.
It's very interesting that he was able to do it at all. I went to three different Jewelers and all told me that they are not able to recreate this design because they would need to purchase diamonds with an incision kind of midway along the height, which is where the setting holds the stone. The jeweler could not purchase these diamonds because such diamonds could be only purchased in bulk and were only sold by two or three suppliers around the world. This makes a lot of sense because I couldn't understand why no copycats emerged with similar invisible set diamonds designs.
