Pearl Stud Earrings: The Everyday Essential

A good pair of studs goes with everything. Everyday stud earrings are comfortable enough to wear from morning to night, subtle enough for meetings and pretty enough for a dinner date. Our pearl stud earrings range from a single round freshwater pearl to asymmetric baroque shapes and floral designs, so you can choose something classic or something with a twist. Because studs sit neatly on the lobe, they are also the easiest earrings to wear with glasses, scarves and high collars.

Round freshwater pearl studs are the traditional choice and make a lovely first pearl gift. Baroque styles feel more modern, because each pearl keeps its own natural shape, and the stick baroque pearl stud earrings are a slender, sculptural example. For a playful take, try the freshwater pearl asymmetrical stud earrings, available in gold vermeil or silver. Freshwater pearl studs come in natural white, ivory, cream and blush pink tones, so you can pick the shade that flatters you most.

Gold Stud Earrings or Silver Stud Earrings

Most of our studs are made in S925 sterling silver, left bright or finished in 18ct gold vermeil. Gold stud earrings bring a warmth that flatters ivory and cream pearls, and you can find matching pieces across our gold vermeil jewellery. Because vermeil is a thick layer of gold over sterling silver, it is more durable than ordinary plating. It is a lovely option if you want the look of gold for everyday wear.

Silver stud earrings feel crisp and modern, especially with bright white pearls. Browse our sterling silver jewellery for coordinating rings and necklaces, or read why so many people choose silver for pearl earrings. Sterling silver can tarnish over time, so a quick wipe with a soft cloth keeps it bright. Store your studs separately so the pearls do not get scratched by other jewellery.

Build an Ear Stack or Choose a Thoughtful Gift

Studs are the foundation of any ear stack. Pair a pearl stud with pearl hoop earrings in a second piercing for an easy, curated look, or mix gold and silver for something more relaxed. For more shapes, browse all our pearl earrings or the full range of earrings for women. Two or three pairs worn together create a personal look that is easy to change with your mood.
