Aquamarine Chain Stud Earrings Sterling Silver

A stud with something extra behind it. A small round aquamarine-toned cubic zirconia sits in a four-prong setting on the front of the post, and a fine cable chain runs from the stone, drops into a soft loop below the lobe and returns to the butterfly back. The whole thing fastens like an ordinary stud — there is no second piercing involved and nothing to thread. The movement comes from the chain, which swings slightly as you turn your head.

This is the pair for when a plain stud feels too still. The loop sits close to the lobe rather than dangling, so it reads as detail rather than as a drop earring, and it stays out of the way of a collar or a scarf. It is a good bridge piece: quiet enough for the office, interesting enough for dinner afterwards. Available in gold, rose gold and silver. Hypoallergenic 925 sterling silver, chain and settings included.
