Can you wear gold earrings every day?
1 Answer
Whether you can wear gold earrings every day depends on the type of gold. Because solid 24-karat and 22-karat gold tend to be more malleable, earrings produced out of these precious metals may not hold up well to daily wear. On the other hand, 18-karat and 14-karat gold are more durable and better suited to frequent wear. No matter the type, you should generally remove your gold earrings before swimming, showering, using hair care products or doing any activity that could cause them to get snagged or bumped. Follow your earrings’ care instructions to keep them looking like new for as long as possible. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of gold earrings.
