Our collection is diverse and broad-ranging, and pieces in stock date back to the 19th Century while others were produced as recently as the 21st Century.

If you’re browsing the variety of gold and amber earrings for sale, you’ll find that many are available today for women, but there are still pieces to choose from for men.

How Much are Gold And Amber Earrings?

Prices for gold and amber earrings can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, these accessories begin at $315 and can go as high as $21,000, while gold and amber earrings, on average, fetch $2,975.

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 Gold And Amber Earrings
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023
    Which 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.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    What 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 1, 2023
    Yes, white gold earrings can be good options. Many people love the cool, sleek appearance of the metal, and the color of white gold can coordinate with other jewelry made of platinum and sterling silver, making it highly versatile. Plus, white gold offers the durability of gold metal, particularly if you opt for a strong alloy like 14- or 18-karat gold. On 1stDibs, explore a large selection of white gold earrings.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023
    Whether 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 ExpertNovember 27, 2023
    The 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 ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Because 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.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    All 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, 2023
    Yes, you can wear pearls with gold earrings. One trick to achieving a balanced look is to consider scale. Choose simple gold studs or hoops to accompany a multi-strand pearl statement necklace, or pair a simple single strand of pearls with dramatic gold dangle or chandelier earrings. Find a large assortment of pearl necklaces and gold earrings on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023
    You can wear almost anything with gold hoop earrings. Use gold hoops to coordinate with your favorite casual tee-and-jeans combo or a tank top and shorts in the summer. They can add polish when worn with a casual sundress, office wear or a little black dress for evenings out. Find a large selection of gold hoop earrings on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023
    To 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 1, 2023
    Whether white gold or yellow gold is better for diamond earrings is a matter of personal preference.

    To tell if gold diamond earrings are real, you can perform a couple of tests. For the diamonds, try the breath test. Blow onto the gemstone and see how long it takes for the condensation to disappear. On a genuine diamond, the fog will clear up quickly, while it will tend to linger on rhinestones and crystals. Real gold tends to be heavy, so earrings made out of it will sink in water. Because authenticating earrings with the naked eye can be difficult, you may want to ask a professional jeweler, appraiser or experienced dealer for assistance.

    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.
