Finding the Right Earrings for You
In the United States, ear piercing didn’t really become popular until the 1950s and ‘60s, but our desire for a dazzling pair of vintage earrings has deeper roots than that. In fact, wearing earrings actually goes back thousands of years, and you can find many tangible connections between now and then in how we continue to talk about these treasured accessories.
Women wore ornamental earrings — studs and hoops at the very least — in Ancient Egypt, which is home to mines that are among the earliest sources of emeralds in the world. Emerald earrings are highly prized today, and their quality lies in their rich, saturated color. The highest-quality emeralds are green or bluish-green. Earrings worn by the affluent in early Roman civilizations were set with precious stones such as diamonds and pearls, and a clean-looking pop of pearl on the front of the lobe is as timeless as ever. Hoop earrings are imbued with symbolism and cultural significance for many, and on view in the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Ancient Near Eastern Art Gallery is a pair of simple gold hoops from Mesopotamia dating to between 2600 and 2500 B.C.
Today, ear piercing is very popular all over the world, and, as a result, it is difficult to overstate how much everyone pines for a good pair of earrings — modernist drop earrings, glamorous Victorian hoops, geometrically complex chandelier earrings, you name it. Sure, jewelry trends and the fashion darlings of social media come and go, but earrings have a staying power that seems impenetrable: The still-strong love affair between British royals and Cartier earrings is more than a century old, glossy 1970s hoops from legacy houses such as Bulgari and Van Cleef & Arpels remain the statement makers they’ve always been and although people have been stacking earrings for many moons, the allure of an expertly mismatched stack of charms and studs still feels fresh and new.
While there is no shortage of modern earring designs to choose from, the classics, like coral earrings, Art Deco–style earrings and diamond drop earrings are still heavy hitters. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of antique, new and vintage earrings today.
Questions About 22kt Gold Earrings
- Is there 22K gold jewelry?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, 22k gold does exist and it even exists in jewelry, but it’s not very common. 24k is pure gold and it’s simply too soft for jewelry and practical use, 18k is a very popular version of gold for jewelry, but it is possible to find 22k gold jewelry. Find an assortment of gold jewelry from the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021Twenty-two karat gold denotes that more than 91 percent of the metal is gold. Other metals are present to render the texture of the gold more durable. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique and vintage gold jewelry.
- Is 24 kt real gold?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, 24 karat gold is 100 percent pure gold with no other metals mixed in. It’s known for its distinctive bright yellow color and is the highest karat of gold available. Browse a variety of 24 karat gold jewelry and home decor pieces on 1stDibs.
- Is 18kt gold valuable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023Whether 18-karat gold is valuable depends on a variety of factors. The price of gold per gram fluctuates with the market for gold. If the gold in question refers to a piece of jewelry, factors under consideration would include the style of the piece, if the accessory features any gemstones and what the gems are, where it was made, its condtion and more. A certified appraiser can evaluate 18-karat gold jewelry to determine its value. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of 18-karat gold jewelry from some of the world's top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, 22k gold is not too soft for jewelry, but it’s considered too soft for everyday wear. You may find some special pieces that are made of 22k gold or that have 22k gold in them, especially antique jewelry, but regular wear will quickly cause 22k gold to become misshapen and scratched. Shop a collection of 22k gold jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- How do you clean gold earrings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024To clean gold earrings, follow the care instructions provided by the jewelry maker. Doing so will help you protect your earrings so that they can stand the test of time. In many cases, makers recommend using mild dish soap and warm water for cleaning, but some earrings may require specialty cleaners. On 1stDibs, explore a wide variety of gold earrings.
- Which gold is best for earrings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023Which gold is best for earrings depends on your personal preferences. In terms of color, yellow gold will bring a warm glow to earrings, while white gold provides a sleek, cool appearance. Rose gold adds a touch of pinkish color that many people love. Alloy types have their own benefits as well. Generally, 18-karat gold will show off a richer color, while 14-karat gold tends to be stronger and more scratch-resistant because it contains more base metal. Generally, artisans don't often use pure 24-karat gold for earrings because the metal is malleable and more prone to wear and tear as a result. Shop a large selection of gold earrings on 1stDibs.
- Are Chanel earrings real gold?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021All of Chanel's fine jewelry is made with 18K Gold (both yellow and white) and platinum and all of the diamonds used have very high clarity and color with a perfect set, resulting in some of the highest quality jewelry.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Yes, you can wear pearls with gold earrings. One trick to achieving a balanced look is to consider scale.

- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023To choose gold stud earrings, first consider what type of gold you prefer. Your options include yellow, white and rose gold. Next, determine what karat gold is right for you. Most earrings are 14-karat or 18-karat. Generally, 18-karat gold has a richer color due to its higher gold content, while 14-karat gold is stronger and more scratch-resistant because it contains more alloy metal. Once you've decided on a gold color and karat, you can compare the shape, size and other features of studs and select the ones that appeal most to you. Explore a large selection of gold stud earrings on 1stDibs.

- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023Whether you can sleep with gold hoop earrings on largely depends on personal preference and the size of the earrings. Smaller huggies and sleeper-style hoops may not get in the way of sleep. However, larger styles are more likely to get caught on your pillow, bedding, hair or clothing during the night. Generally, it's a good idea to remove your earrings before going to bed. On 1stDibs, find a large collection of hoop earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Because gold is too delicate a metal for everyday wear, it is mixed with other alloys. The best mixtures of gold for earrings are 14K and 18K for everyday jewelry.
- What do gold hoop earrings mean?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023What gold hoop earrings mean is a matter of personal interpretation. In ancient Greece and Rome, gold hoops were a symbol of wealth and power. They were also a status symbol in ancient Egypt, where the warm color of the metal and the circular shape represented the sun god Ra. Today, many people don't assign any symbolic meaning to the earrings and instead wear gold hoops because they like their appearance. On 1stDibs, find a selection of gold hoop earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 27, 2023The highest-quality gold earrings are a matter of personal preference. Generally, pure, 24-karat gold isn't the best choice for earrings because it is malleable and can scratch easily. Earrings made of 22-karat gold are slightly more durable, but most experts recommend choosing 14- or 18-karat gold, which are better at holding up to the effects of regular wear. Generally, 18-karat gold will have a richer color, but 14-karat gold tends to be the most scratch- and damage-resistant option. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of gold earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023Whether white gold or yellow gold is better for diamond earrings is a matter of personal preference. Due to its cool color, white gold will blend in with diamonds and keep the eye focused on the gemstones. Yellow gold will add warm color to earrings and make a bold contrast with the diamonds.

- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023How many grams gold hoop earrings are varies. Both the size and thickness of hoops will determine how much they weigh in grams.

- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023Yes, Louis Vuitton earrings are real gold. Specifically, the French luxury fashion house uses 18-karat white, yellow and rose gold to produce its jewelry. Some pieces, like those in the LV Diamonds collection, also feature genuine diamonds. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of Louis Vuitton earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 23, 2024Whether 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.
