How Much are Real Gold Diamond Earrings?
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.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023To 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. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of gold 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 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, 2023To tell if black diamond earrings are real, first examine the surface of the gemstones. Real black diamonds usually have imperfections, while fakes usually appear flawless. Because it can be difficult to identify well-made synthetic gemstones with the naked eye, consider consulting a knowledgeable jeweler, dealer or appraiser for assistance with authentication. Find a variety of black diamond jewelry on 1stDibs.
- 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 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. Explore a large collection of diamond earrings on 1stDibs.
