FAQs About Black Earrings
Black earrings, as the name suggests, are simply earrings made from black materials or with black charms and gemstones. They're very popular for those who prefer subdued styles, gothic fashion, or classic and elegant looks in their jewellery.
Our black jewellery includes stud earrings, black diamond earrings, drop earrings, and black jewellery with gold and sterling silver settings.
While many collections include black styles, there is still something slightly unique about black earring styles. They add a little bit of individuality to your style, where gold or silver styles may not.
Black earrings can actually be made from many different materials, including those listed below.
- Black ceramic: This style is common for hypoallergenic earring styles as it contains no metals.
- Black diamond: Diamonds that are black in colour are much more affordable than completely clear diamonds, making them popular gemstones in black earrings.
- Zirconium: A shiny, grey metal, zirconium is a popular metal used for black jewellery.
- Blackened silver or gold: Blackened silver is oxidised to give it its colour, whereas blackened gold tends to be rhodium-plated gold.
Not all black jewellery is made with black metal, and instead, you might find gold vermeil earrings with a black gemstone set into them. Black gemstone earrings that are common include:
- Black onyx earrings: Onyx is a deep black stone that is a popular choice for black drop earrings.
- Black diamond earrings: Black diamond styles are relatively affordable and are common in black earring collections.
- Black opal earrings: Black opal makes for a wonderful choice for earrings. While they're not totally black, the flashes in the opal stone make your earrings something truly unique.
Black obsidian earrings: Obsidian is thought to be a protective stone, so it is a popular choice for everyday wear.
Black earrings are a good choice for everyday wear because they're subtle and understated, but other times when black earrings might be a good choice include:
- Black earrings for gothic fashion: Whether for a gothic event, Halloween, or just your gothic friend's birthday, black accessories are great for gothic styles.
- An elegant event: Because of the understated nature of this style, black earrings can bring an outfit together and exude elegance when done right.
- For work: If you work in a customer-facing role, black accessories could be a good choice to add personality to your uniform but still be within uniform regulations.
Yes! In fact, black earrings for men are probably more common than black earrings for women because the styles are so popular with men.
Black styles for men tend to be simple, like one or a pair of plain black studs, ceramic charm earrings, or black diamonds.
On top of this, you can usually find black chain necklaces, black chain bracelets, black metal rings, and other black accessories, all suitable for men to wear (as well as women!).
Black styles are an entirely unisex choice for your ear!
If you're looking to add some black stud earrings to your shopping bag, then you've come to the right place. Camile and Stone have an impressive collection of black earring styles, but if you can't find the style you want in our collection, then you can try these other options too.
- Jewellers: Best for custom earrings.
- Local designer: Best if you're looking for something one-of-a-kind.
- Thrift or antique stores: Great if you're looking for vintage earrings.
- Online marketplaces, like Depop: Perfect if you want small designer styles or something a little bit different.
Of course, you can wear black earring styles to a wedding. In fact, black styles could be the most elegant addition to your outfit. For classic and elegant weddings with formal dress codes, black earring styles or gold or sterling silver earrings with black gemstones can offer an understated yet elegant touch.
Another time when black styles might be appropriate is if your outfit is on the louder side. You might choose subdued and understated black studs to offset a bold dress or jumpsuit.
Black earring styles are also a suitable choice for other occasion events, like parties, networking events, and dates.
Caring for black earrings is very similar to caring for other kinds of earrings. For hardier metals, like gold, sterling silver, rose gold, titanium, and zirconium, you can soak the piece in soapy water and then brush or wipe away any dirt.
For costume jewellery and metals that tarnish, prolonged exposure to water is unsuitable, so a damp cloth should be used instead.
If you have black earrings or other jewellery and you're not sure how to clean it yourself, remember that you can take it for professional cleaning, too! Cleaning is important to ensure that jewellery lasts for a long time.
Yes, you can find black hoop styles!
As with stud earrings, you can find black metal hoops that use blackened gold, silver, or other black metals. You might also find black hoops made from wood, plastic or metal covered with black leather.
On top of these styles, you can find metal hoops with black gemstones, like black diamond, onyx, or obsidian, set into the hoop. These styles are similar to hoops with diamonds and pave inlaid and can add something unique to your outfit. You can also find huggies with black charms and gemstone dangles.
Common black earring styles include the following:
- Plain black studs: Plain, often matte black studs are trendy, particularly for men.
- Black gemstone studs: With gemstones like black diamonds, onyx, and obsidian, these can be a fun alternative to the classic diamond stud styles.
- Black hoops: Another alternative take on classic, small black hoops can add a touch of elegance to your everyday.
- Huggies with black charms: Huggies, or small hoops, with black charms in cross or skull shapes, are very common for those with a more gothic personal style.
