Oval Alexandrite Dangle Earrings in Sterling Silver

Yes. Our posts and findings are nickel-free — nickel is what most people are reacting to when costume jewellery irritates their ears. Sterling silver and gold vermeil are both well tolerated by sensitive skin, and the rhodium finish on our sterling adds a further non-reactive barrier.

If you react even to precious metals, solid gold is the safest option — those are made to order.

Every piece here is either 925 sterling silver finished with rhodium, or 14K gold vermeil — real 14K gold over a solid sterling silver core, at the 2.5-micron minimum the US standard requires. No brass, no base metal, in either case. The metal is listed in the selector above, and our Precious Metal Guide explains how each one wears.

Studs come with butterfly backs as standard; drop and hook styles use the fitting named in the description. Every post and back is nickel-free and matches the metal of the earring itself.

Spare backs are inexpensive and easy to replace — if you lose one, talk to our team rather than substituting a base-metal back.

Warm water, a drop of mild soap and a soft cloth; dry it thoroughly before it goes away. Put it on last — after perfume, lotion and hairspray — and take it off before swimming, showering or exercising.

Store it flat, dry and separately from harder stones. Skip abrasive polishes and silver dips; they are made for untreated metal and will damage a finish. Our Jewelry Care Guide has the full routine.

Yes. Every stone we set is a real gemstone, hand-picked for its colour and clarity and responsibly sourced. You can see exactly which stone you are choosing in the selector above.

Some of our designs use lab-grown stones or moissanite — just as beautiful, harder wearing, and kinder on the budget. Whenever that is the case we say so right in the product description, so you always know exactly what you are getting.
