The details
Balle—French for ball—gives these studs their shape: a small sphere of blackened 18 karat white gold, pavé set all over with lab-grown diamonds and mounted on a yellow gold post. The dark metal recedes and leaves the stones to read as points of light. Made to be worn every day, and a fun addition to any ear stack.

Questions
Are lab-grown diamonds real diamonds?
Yes. Lab-grown diamonds have the same chemical, physical and optical properties as mined diamonds. We select ours at D–G colour, VS2+ clarity and Ideal cut, and certified stones can be requested.
Can I choose a different carat weight or metal?
We can custom make anything to almost any size. If you see something you like but don’t see the carat weight you desire, reach out to bespoke@shopdelapaix.com and we will provide you with an estimate.
How long will my earrings take to arrive?
Most orders take 2–3 weeks to arrive, but some items may take longer. All items ship free with FedEx 2Day in the US.
Do you make bespoke pieces?
Yes. We can change the stone, carat weight or gold, reset natural diamonds from a vintage piece, or create something new. Write to bespoke@shopdelapaix.com.
