Use the navigation below to jump straight to any of them, whether you arrived looking for a birthstone, a particular metal, a wedding style or simply the right pair of earrings for a specific outfit, occasion or gift.

Completing the Earrings Directory

Page two exists so that no earring type in this section is more than one click from a directory page. The gemstone guides continue here alongside the metal, material and wearer guides, and the navigation above mirrors the main guide page so either page can be used as the section's front door. Readers who arrived here looking for the introduction to the section, including how to choose earrings for everyday wear, will find it on the main earrings guide page linked in the navigation.

Each guide reached from here follows the same pattern: the type's defining features first, then styles and materials, then fittings, wearing and comfort advice, and finally care. That consistency is deliberate. A reader comparing, for example, pearl earrings against diamond earrings, or a stud against a drop, can line the two guides up section by section and see exactly where the types differ in construction, price and upkeep. Together with the main earrings guide page, this page completes a directory that treats earrings as their own subject rather than an afterthought to necklaces and rings, which is fitting for the jewelry form worn closest to the face and seen in every conversation and photograph.

Common Questions

Why is the earrings guide split over two pages?

The section covers many earring guides, too many for one readable directory page, so the listing is split: the main earrings guide page introduces the section and its first group of guides, and this page continues and completes the listing. Every earring guide is linked from the navigation on both pages, so either page works as a starting point.

Where should I start if I want gemstone earrings?

Start with the guide for your stone: amethyst, aquamarine, blue topaz, citrine, diamond, emerald, garnet, onyx, opal, pearl, peridot, ruby, sapphire and topaz each have a dedicated guide covering color, meaning, earring styles and care for that stone, including how well the pair should match.

Where should I start if I want a particular earring style?

Start with the construction guides: stud earrings for the classic on-lobe style, hoop earrings, and drop earrings for designs that hang and move. Each covers how that style is made, the fittings it uses, how it should hang and feel, and how to care for it.
