I have 2cttw (1ct per ear) diamond studs in a WG 4-prong tiffany setting. this is the largest size that I want, so no upgrading. I have 4 pairs of diamond hoops that I wear FAR more often. I also have many pairs of gemstone studs ranging between 2cttw & 4cttw...all in WG tiffany or fancy basket settings.
Mine are 2.5 ctw martini setting, I have traded in several times I think I started at about .50 ctw.
I have two pairs, the smaller ones are .50 cts tw for my second piercing, they are 3 prong martini set in yellow gold. The other pair is 2 ctw, 4 prong set in platinum. I recently got pave jackets for them and I love how they look with the jackets. I attached a pic with and w/o the jackets. Someday I would love to get 4 ctw, but for now the jackets have satisfied me!

My ears are double pierced and I always keep my diamond studs in the upper piercing. I have 0.40 carats (total weight). They are H color and SI clarity.
My first pair was a present I received from DH for our 1st anniversary, 1.5 tcw, round, color G/H, VVS, platinum martini screw back style. But I have very small earlobes, and the studs looked way too big for my taste. Even DH agreed they were too much.
So I exchanged them for another pair 0.75 tcw, round, color G/H, VS, 18k white gold martini screw back style. They are just perfect, and I have been wearing them almost everyday. With the money we got back, we put it toward our vacation fund and took a 10-day cruise.
