Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about Pearl and Sapphire Drop Earrings
How does the 14K White Gold compliment the pearl and sapphire?+
The cool, bright tone of the 14K White Gold (with its Rhodium Finish) provides a neutral and highly reflective background that makes the pearl appear whiter and the blue sapphire appear richer and more vibrant.
Are the 7 mm pearls a common size?+
Yes, pearls in the 6.0 mm to 7.5 mm range are considered a classic, versatile size for earrings. They are substantial enough to be noticed but remain elegant and appropriate for both day and evening wear.
What is the difference between a stud and a drop earring?+
A stud earring sits directly on the earlobe with no movement. A drop or dangle earring hangs below the lobe and moves. While the overall design is a stud, the visual impact of the large pearl and sapphire halo gives the set the elegance and presence usually associated with drop styles.
What special care is needed for the pearls?+
Pearls are organic and should be the last thing you put on and the first thing you take off. Avoid contact with perfumes, hairspray, and household chemicals. To clean them, simply wipe them gently with a soft, damp cloth .
