FAQs about Gold Earrings
What kind of gold earrings are in style?
Dangles, huggies, drops, and studs are some of the leading gold earring styles. Other popular gold earrings include versatile petite hoops in both white and yellow gold, sparkling diamond hoop earrings, pearl studs and gemstone studs set in gleaming gold.
White gold and yellow gold earrings are the most popular gold colors across all styles. Luxurious 18k gold earrings are especially popular.
How much do gold earrings cost?
With such a wide variety of styles available, gold earrings also have a very wide price range. Some of the most affordable options include 14k gold earrings. Higher karat values, like 18k gold earrings, are popular luxury jewelry designs.
What's the difference between 14k and 10k gold earrings?
Denoted by the letter "k," karat indicates the purity of gold. 10k gold is an alloy of 41.7% gold and other metals, while 14k gold is 58.3% pure gold. Because 14k gold offers a better balance of price and durability, we don't carry 10k gold earrings. 14k gold earrings are our most popular option, available in a fantastic array of designs and styles for all budgets. We also carry a beautiful range of 18k gold earrings, with no shortage of stylish pairs to choose from.
If you’re shopping for yellow gold earrings, you may notice that higher karat values have a more buttery, yellow appearance over lower karat gold. But the exact look will vary depending on the unique alloying for each pair of earrings.
Are 14k or 18k gold earrings a good choice?
When it comes to gold earrings, you want to be sure you're choosing pieces that are both durable and beautiful. 18k and 14k gold earrings offer both durability and beauty, with the perfect combination of alloys for long-term wear. Both 14k and 18k white, rose and yellow gold earrings for women and men can be worn daily.

What finishes do gold earrings come in?
Smooth, gleaming gold is the most popular finish for these earrings. Gold earrings are typically finished with a glossy appearance and also come in matte or textured finishes. Highly polished yellow gold earrings are our most popular style.
How should I clean gold earrings?
To clean your gold earrings, remove them from your ears and dip them in a jewelry cleaning solution or homemade mixture of gentle dish soap and warm water. They can also be polished to bring back their shine. When cleaning dangling earrings, such as gold hoops or gold drop earrings, do so gently to preserve any delicate components.
Can I mix and match gold earrings?
Absolutely! Mixing and matching gold earring styles can bring endless combinations for any look. If you have multiple piercings, you can alternate between gold studs and gold hoops to create a unique ear stack. If you are mixing up a standalone pair of earrings, you can wear one specific style in each ear. For this look, it’s popular to wear two gold hoops, each featuring its own gemstones. You can also mix and match gold studs, with one unique stud in each ear or you can purchase a purposefully mismatched set of gold studs.
What gemstones are popular?
A timeless and durable metal, gold houses the full array of gemstones and birthstones. You can find studs, hoops, drops and huggies with gemstones such as amethyst, blue topaz, emerald, morganite, pearls, peridot, ruby and sapphires.
