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 Diamond Girandole Earrings
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023There is no single best diamond for earrings. Brilliant cuts can provide sparkle that draws the eye and adds glamor to materials, while step-cut styles emphasize the color and clarity of high-quality gemstones. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of diamond earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023There is no single type of diamond earring that shines the most. How much sparkle a diamond earring has depends on the gemstone's cut. Generally, brilliant cuts like the round, pear, marquise, oval, heart, radiant and princess show off the most sparkle and shine. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of diamond earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023What diamond earrings symbolize is largely a matter of personal interpretation. Some people associate diamonds with true love, making earrings set with the gemstones a romantic gift. Diamonds are also the birthstone for April and may be worn to represent a person’s birthday. On 1stDibs, find a collection of diamond earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023The best diamond for earrings is one that appeals to you and suits your budget. When set in earrings, many diamond cuts look attractive, such as the brilliant round, the oval, the pear, the princess, the emerald and the cushion. When considering color, keep the setting in mind. With yellow or rose gold, diamonds rated I through K or better can be ideal, depending on the size, while platinum and rose gold will nicely offset diamonds rated H through J or better. Because you rarely view diamond earrings up close, inclusions are difficult to spot. As a result, most experts recommend choosing SI1 clarity or higher. Explore a large selection of diamond earrings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023Yes, you can wear pearl earrings with diamond earrings if you wish. One way to tie the look together is to choose pearl and diamond earrings with matching settings. For example, you can pair platinum diamond and pearl earrings or yellow gold diamond and pearl earrings. Shop a large assortment of earrings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023The four Cs for diamond earrings are cut, color, clarity and carats. The cut refers to the number of facets and their arrangement, which affect a diamond's shape and sparkle. Color means whether diamonds have a noticeable yellow tint; completely clear diamonds are the rarest. Clarity is whether a diamond has any inclusions or imperfections, and carats describe the weight or size of the diamonds. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of diamond earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023One way to know if diamond earrings are real is to try the fog test. To do so, breathe on the earrings, and then look to see how long the fog created by your breath lasts. On real diamonds, the fog clears quickly. While this test can provide fairly accurate results, experts generally agree that the best way to authenticate diamond jewelry is to enlist the services of an experienced jeweler, jewelry dealer or appraiser. They can examine your jewelry thoroughly to give you a definitive answer as to whether or not it's real. Shop a diverse assortment of diamond earrings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023The most popular diamond earring shape can vary from season to season based on trends. However, some shapes have timeless appeal and always remain in style. Examples include stud earrings in brilliant round, oval and princess cuts. Explore a large selection of diamond earrings from some of the world's top dealers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 23, 2024Yes, you can try to tell when diamond earrings are fake through various tests. One of the simplest and safest for jewelry is the breath test, where you breathe on the earrings and watch to see how quickly the fog clears. The condensation will usually disappear more quickly from a genuine diamond. Because it can be difficult to determine a real diamond from a synthetic one through sight and basic at-home tests, most experts recommend consulting a jeweler, an experienced dealer or an appraiser. Shop a variety of diamond earrings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Yes, diamond hoop earrings can be in style. The choice to wear diamond hoop earrings is really a matter of personal preference.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021The cost of a diamond earring varies based on a number of factors. The price of diamond earrings largely depends on its caratage. Other factors that influence the price include, cut, clarity, condition, and craftsmanship. On 1stDibs.com, you can purchase a diamond earring starting at $83.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Generally, a good rating for diamond earrings is SI2 and above for clarity and H or above for color. Diamond earrings with these ratings will appear eye-clean, meaning any imperfections and inclusions will be difficult to spot with the naked eye. The diamond's color is also likely to appear clear in its setting. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of diamond earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023To tell if diamond earrings are real, you can conduct some tests yourself. Try breathing on the gemstones to produce a fog and watch how quickly it disappears. Fake gemstones will hold onto the condensation for longer than authentic diamonds. You can also try dropping the earrings into water. Generally, authentic diamonds will sink due to their weight, but glass imitations are lighter and will float. If you remain uncertain as to whether your diamond jewelry is real, a certified appraiser can assist you. Shop a collection of diamond earrings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023Yes, you can order diamond earrings online. Some jewelry makers sell diamond earrings directly to customers through their official websites. Others partner with third-party online stores that sell rings from a variety of makers. You can also shop on trusted online platforms to find diamond earrings.
