These pearl earrings are made with freshwater pearls! Compared to saltwater pearls, freshwater pearls are created with a thicker layer of nacre, resulting in more shine and a longer-lasting gemstone that’s less susceptible to the elements and everyday wear. We exclusively use freshwater pearls in our pieces because they last longer, shine brighter and are more affordable than their sisters of the sea.

Pearls are natural, moisture-loving gemstones that react negatively to chemicals and harsh cleansers—but it’s easy to keep them happy and lustrous for a lifetime with a few easy care tips! Keep pearls away from harsh cleansers and chemicals, remove before rigorous activities, avoid high temperatures and wear them often. For more care tips, check out our journal!

Yes! In fact, pearls love to be worn. The natural oils found in your skin (combined with fresh air) creates the perfect amount of moisture for pearls to thrive, and protects them from drying out and cracking. Just be sure to remove before showers or rigorous activity, and keep away from perfumes and makeup.

Pearls are incredible because they’re so versatile. Wear your pearl studs alone for a simple look, stack with your favorite studs or pair with hoops or dramatic drop earrings to dress them up or down.
