Our verdict
A small, fixed-design pair of 18K yellow gold heart earrings for a buyer who likes the moving flutter detail and is comfortable with a .10 carat white diamond centerpiece. Look elsewhere if you want a choice of metal or size, a stated diamond color and clarity, or a clear weight per earring. The main caveat is that the listing is short: it names no grades and does not say whether the diamond is mined or made in a lab.
- Best for
- A buyer who wants a small heart earring in 18K yellow gold with a post back and a moving flutter design.
- Skip if
- You want a choice of metal or size, or you need the diamond's color and clarity stated.
Why 3.4/5: Nothing on the page earns extra credit; held back by almost no specifications on the page and the store's no-returns, no-refunds policy (a damaged or defective item gets an exchange or repair).
Flutter is a heart earring built around movement: the listing describes a flutter design with movement that accentuates the white diamond centerpiece. The pair is 18K yellow gold with a post back, approximately 11mm in size, and the listing gives .10 carats for the diamond. It is priced at $699 as a single variant, so there is no metal, size or closure to choose between.
Options and pricing
There is nothing to configure: the page lists one variant at $699, in 18K yellow gold with a post back. The size is given as approximately 11mm and the diamond weight as .10 carats. The listing offers no other metal, size or closure, and it does not say whether the .10 carats applies to each earring or to the pair.
How it compares
The Amour 14K Gold Heart Studs are the nearest match in theme, at $285 in 14kt yellow gold against $699 here in 18K. For a larger diamond weight, the Lab-Grown Diamond Stud Earrings start at $395 with weights from .50 ctw, and the Natural Diamond Stud Earrings start at $1,095 with weights from .50 ctw too. Flutter lists .10 carats and one option.
Shipping, returns and warranty
Shipping: the Shipping & Returns page says US orders over $100 ship free and that fine jewelry, diamonds and engagement rings are handcrafted to order and usually fulfilled within 1 to 4 weeks, sent by UPS 2-day shipping with an adult signature required. The FAQ gives other figures, an estimated 4 to 6 weeks for custom rings and generally 6 to 8 weeks of production from payment, and says the checkout page shows an estimate, so confirm the date there. Fine jewelry ships only within the United States according to the FAQ; international orders are limited to the Demi-Fine Collection. Returns: the Shipping & Returns page says the store cannot accept returns on these limited, handmade or made-to-order items; if an item arrives damaged or defective, contact the store within 14 days of delivery for an exchange or repair of the same item, which must be in its original packaging with no sign of wear. The FAQ says all fine jewelry sales are final and that returns, refunds and exchanges are not accepted, with a repair offered for faulty items, and the sales terms add that sale items cannot be returned or exchanged. The refund policy page grants a 14-day cooling-off right to orders shipped into the European Union. This product page also says: "No refunds, exchanges, or cancellations on fine jewelry orders." Warranty: the FAQ says the store guarantees its fine jewelry against manufacturing defects at the time of delivery for life and repairs a confirmed defect at no cost, while damage from wear and tear or trauma is quoted before any work. Excluded examples include scratching, loss of center stones, product loss or theft, discoloration from chemicals or make-up and prongs that wear down over time. Discount code: the sales terms say codes must be entered at checkout, only one code can be used per order and promotions exclude gift cards and custom orders unless stated otherwise; some products can also be excluded, so check that the FACESTORE code takes 10% off this item before you pay.
Before you buy
Lola Ade says it is a Black woman-owned fine jewelry brand based in Los Angeles that sells online only, founded by Pamela Adewoyin James, whom its About page calls a GIA-certified diamond professional and practicing attorney. The page says she has handcrafted jewelry since 2010 and launched an engagement ring collection in 2024. A July 2026 SHEEN Magazine interview tells a similar story, but it is a profile, not a product test, and searches on 20 October 2026 found no Trustpilot, BBB or Reddit page for the store. The store's own reviews page shows 40 reviews, 38 of them five-star and 2 four-star; that widget is the store's display and was not verified. Its giving program ("a portion of every fine jewelry purchase" supports clean water access in Africa, and a portion of each engagement ring sale per its community page) names no amount. The FAQ says the store's diamonds come from suppliers that follow strict ethical standards, are conflict-free and comply with the Kimberley Process; it publishes no supplier list. There is no showroom, so you cannot see a piece in person, and the pages disagree on production time and on whether a damaged item gets an exchange or only a repair; ask for the estimate and the remedy in writing before you order.
What we liked
- The listing gives the metal (18K yellow gold), the diamond weight (.10 carats) and the size (approximately 11mm)
- A post back is stated
- The listing describes a flutter design with movement that accentuates the white diamond centerpiece
- A single $699 price with nothing to configure
Worth noting
- No diamond color, clarity or grade is stated, and the listing says nothing about where the diamond comes from
- There is one variant only: 18K yellow gold, one size and one closure
- The listing does not say whether the .10 carats is per earring or for the pair

How big is it?
