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 Screw On Earring
- What is a screw back earring?2 Answers
Roman Malakov DiamondsMarch 24, 2021A screw back is a type of closure for earrings wherein the post is fastened to the back by screwing it. This type of back is usually used for earrings that are worn everyday, children's earrings, or high value earrings as this type of back tends to be more secure.1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021A screw back earring is a type of earring where the back screws into place as if it were a nut over a screw. Because they must be twisted off, they’re more secure for high value earrings. - Are screw back earrings vintage?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Screw back earrings were most popular during the first half of the 20th century, before clip earrings increased in popularity. However, screw back earrings have never gone out of style. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of antique screw back earrings from some of the world’s top sellers.
- Do screw back earrings fall off?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Screw back earrings can fall off if the screws become threaded over time. It’s best to keep a close eye on the condition of the screw and have them repaired or converted if needed. Shop a collection of antique screw back earrings from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- What is a turn screw?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021A turn screw is a device used for turning screws. It may be a screwdriver or a wrench that can be used to drive and remove slotted screws. Find a collection of antique and vintage turn screws on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024The screw on top of a lamp is called a finial. On most lamps, the finial remains visible once the lampshade is in place; it often has a decorative design that enhances the overall appearance. The finial usually screws into the harp, the curving wire part of the lamp that supports the shade. Shop a wide variety of lamps on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023The Cartier screw bracelet is called the Love bracelet. Its iconic screw motif and the bracelet's locking mechanism represent the idea of "locking down" or protecting your love. Initially the accessory came with a gold-vermeil screwdriver, although it has since been updated to lock and unlock on its own. Its creator, Aldo Cipullo, was inspired by the lore of medieval chastity belts. The Cartier Love collection also includes rings and necklaces. Find a variety of vintage Cartier Love bracelets from some of the world's top dealers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 27, 2023No, clip-on earrings don't pierce your ears. Instead of slipping through a piercing, a clip-on earring attaches to the surface of your earlobe with a fastener. Depending on the design of the earrings, the fastener may be a hinged clip, a screw, a tension bar or even a magnet. On 1stDibs, explore a large selection of clip-on earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023Clip-on earrings may hurt your ears due to the tension that the backings apply on the lobes. If your earrings have adjustable backs, try fastening them less tightly to reduce discomfort. You can also purchase cushions that stick onto the backings to help ease pressure. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of clip-on earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023The name of earrings that go through the ear is pierced earrings. They differ from clip-on earrings, which attach to the earlobe rather than going through a piercing. Pierced earrings come in a wide range of styles, including studs mounted on posts, dangles and drops that hang from wires and hoops that feature a variety of closures. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of pierced earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023Yes, you can use clip-on earrings on pierced ears. The different kinds of clasps featured on clip-ons will still secure them to your earlobes if you have a piercing. However, wearing clip-ons exclusively could cause your piercings to gradually close up over time. On 1stDibs, shop a large collection of clip-on earrings.
- 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 27, 2023Many types of earrings that hang from the ear can be elegant. Dangle earrings featuring pearls or gemstones are one option. Large hoops made of gold, platinum or other precious metals are another. For a bold statement, consider chandelier earrings, which feature tiered dangling designs. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of dangle earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023The difference between a drop earring and a dangle earring is how it hangs. A drop earring extends down below the earlobe but is stationary, while a pair of dangle earrings’ design allows it to swing. On 1stDibs, find a selection of earrings.
- What are earring jackets?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021An earring jacket fastens to the post and, like a jacket, wraps around the bottom of your ear. They don't serve a purpose other than adding another fashionable element to the earrings.
- What are leverback earrings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Leverback earrings have a curved edge and no backing. They typically latch behind the ear like a fishhook. Only people with pierced ears can wear leverback earrings.
- What are halo earrings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021Halo earrings contain a large diamond in the center with accent diamonds in a halo around the stone. Not only are these earrings timeless, but the style can help increase the shimmering of the stone.
- What are huggie earrings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Huggie earrings are miniature hoops that appear to hug the earlobe. Huggies range from .5' to 1.5” in diameter. These dainty earrings are perfect for everyday wear.
- What are invisible earrings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023Invisible earrings are earrings that have an entirely clear design, making them difficult to spot. Often, makers produce invisible earrings out of clear plastic or silicone. People may choose to wear invisible earrings during times when they would prefer not to wear jewelry but want to insert something into their piercings to reduce the risk of closure. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of earrings.
- What are minimalist earrings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Minimalist earrings have a simple, understated look. The term doesn't describe a specific shape, style or material and is largely subjective. For example, some people may consider gold ball studs, small huggie hoops or a pair of small pearl drops to be minimalist. Shop a diverse assortment of earrings on 1stDibs.
- What is a CZ earring?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023A CZ earring is an earring set with cubic zirconia, which some people refer to as CZ. Cubic zirconia is a man-made gemstone produced from zirconium dioxide. The synthetic gem resembles diamonds and is commonly used for producing all types of jewelry.
