NEW Silver Earrings for Spring!

Spring has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere and along with it new styles ... for everything from apparel to hairstyles. We're shedding all those layers of clothing to enjoy warmer weather - the bulky knit scarves, cowls and hats with the ear flaps are going into storage revealing ... new earrings!

Of course there are many types, styles and designs to choose from, including studs, hoop earrings and dangles. These can be made with many materials, creating many thousands of design possibilities.

Silver Hoop Earrings
If you're like most earring fans, silver earrings are among your favorites. Silver is a bright, sparkling white precious metal that pairs up very well with gemstones, glass beads, and crystals of every color you can imagine. From simple gemstone studs and cool silver hoop earrings to intricate wire wrapped designs featuring pearls and brightly colored gemstone beads, there are silver earrings available to suit every taste and to match virtually any type of dress from casual jeans and a tee to fabulous, elegant evening wear!

Beaded Silver Heart Earrings
And of course there are also many styles that feature nothing BUT silver. Sterling silver is a very versatile material, which allows it to be fashioned into virtually any shape or form. This opens up a world of possibilities for the jewelry artisan to consider and use as inspiration for a treasure trove of fantastic new earring designs. By using classic shapes and materials in a different, new way, the jewelry designer can create something fresh inspired by - but not copied from - older designs. The fabulous new handmade silver heart earrings on the left are a great example of this design technique. Designed and created by artisan jewelry maker Terry Salimbene, these lightweight but substantial looking earrings feature a bold heart motif that is accented with bright, shiny sterling silver beads. This style is truly classic looking, but is a thoroughly new earring design perfect for spring wear.


While we do love silver jewelry in general, silver earrings are one of the most noticed types of jewelry we can put on every day. Think about how many times during the day other people look at your face - in school, at work or just waiting for a bus on the street. Your earrings are very visible, and can help you to achieve the look you want. For instance, long dangle style earrings will help to make your face appear longer ... and slimmer. Owning a good variety of earrings can make your new Spring wardrobe more versatile, more noticeable and more fun!
