Small starburst studs pave set with crystals that catch the light.

Kris Nations casts each starburst in recycled sterling silver and finishes it in 18K gold vermeil, at least 2.5 microns of gold. The face is pave set with tiny cubic zirconia crystals, which give the look of diamonds at a gentler price. They are assembled and packed in her Half Moon Bay, California studio.

At about a quarter inch, they are small enough for a second or third piercing and bright enough to wear on their own. A sweet gift for someone starting something new.
