Our verdict
A plain crescent in solid 14K yellow gold, for someone who wants a gold shape with no stones listed, at $245, with a stated size and a friction back. Look elsewhere if you want a gemstone, a different metal or a stated weight. The main caveat is that the listing gives dimensions but no weight or thickness, so the amount of gold behind the price is unknown.
- Best for
- Someone who wants a plain crescent-shaped gold stud with a stated size and a friction back.
- Skip if
- You want a stone, a metal other than yellow gold or a stated weight.
Why 3.5/5: Nothing on the page earns extra credit; held back by the store's no-returns, no-refunds policy (a damaged or defective item gets an exchange or repair).
Osupa takes its shape from the moon: the listing describes a crescent handcrafted in solid 14K yellow gold, finished with friction backs and measuring 7 x 9mm. It costs $245 as a single variant, and the only option shown, metal type, has one value, 14kt yellow gold. No stones are mentioned and no weight is given, so what the page offers is a gold crescent with a stated size and closure.

| Closure | Friction back |
| Dimensions | 7 x 9mm |
| Metal Type | 14kt Yellow Gold |
Options and pricing
There is one variant at $245, and the single option shown, metal type, is 14kt yellow gold, so nothing needs to be selected. The spec rows give the metal as 14kt yellow gold, the closure as a friction back and the dimensions as 7 x 9mm. The listing does not say which of the two figures is height and which is width, and it gives no weight or thickness for the crescent.
How it compares
Osupa is priced below each of the similar 14K studs listed with it: the Àràbá 14K Gold Sapphire Solitaire Studs and the Olúwàfé 14K Gold Ruby Solitaire Studs are $255 each and both list a 3mm size, and the Amour 14K Gold Heart Studs are $285. Osupa is the one moon shape here and its listing mentions no stone, which is the visible difference from the first two.
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. 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. 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 metal is stated twice, as solid 14K yellow gold in the text and as 14kt yellow gold in the spec rows
- Dimensions are given (7 x 9mm) along with the closure, a friction back
- One clear price, $245, with no options to decide between
- The shape is described plainly as a crescent, with no stones to grade
Worth noting
- No weight or thickness is given, so the amount of gold cannot be judged
- The listing does not say which of the 7 x 9mm figures is height and which is width
- Only one metal is offered: 14kt yellow gold
- Most of the text is sentiment about serenity and moonlight, with little physical description beyond the spec rows
