FAQs

Pearl and diamond cluster earrings feature a central pearl framed by a surround or halo of small diamonds, a style popularised in the mid-20th century for formal and bridal wear.

These pieces commonly combine solid precious metals such as 18 carat white gold or platinum with cultured saltwater or freshwater pearls and brilliant-cut or single-cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces usually feature official gold hallmark stamps on the post or scroll back, genuine nacre texture on the pearls, and traditional hand-set diamond mountings.

These versatile stud earrings complement modern tailoring and evening attire, adding a subtle touch of mid-century elegance to both contemporary everyday wear and formal ensembles.

Store pearls separately from hard gemstones to prevent scratching, avoid direct contact with perfumes and cosmetics, and clean gently using a soft, damp cloth without harsh chemicals.
