Quality of earrings: what you need to know before buying!

Earrings are one of the most popular accessories for women. However, the quality of earrings can vary greatly depending on their price and brand. In this article, we'll look at the various factors that influence the quality of earrings and what to look for when buying quality earrings.

The materials used

The material used to make earrings is an important factor that influences their quality. Earrings made of gold, sterling silver or platinum are generally of better quality than earrings made of alloys of cheaper metals (brass...).

Higher quality materials are more resistant to corrosion and oxidation, which means the earrings will stay in good condition for longer.

They will also be less likely to cause irritation. At Sun Society, we use recycled 925 sterling silver (purified) and 24 kt gold in the finish to ensure water resistance and no allergic reaction.

Finishing your jewelry

The finish of the earrings is very important for their quality. Well-finished earrings will have smooth edges and even surfaces with no scratches or manufacturing defects. Higher quality earrings will also have a finish that will not chip, tarnish or discolor over time.

At Sun Society, we plate your earrings in 24 ct gold.

As a reminder, the carat, designated by the letter "k" or "ct" is the unit that measures the purity of a precious metal, here gold . The higher the karats, the purer the gold. Not to be confused with the “carat” as a unit of weight for diamonds and precious stones.

Design

The design of the earrings can also affect their quality. Well-designed earrings will have strong and secure attachment mechanisms that prevent the earrings from falling off or getting lost. Higher quality earrings will also have thicker metal posts making them more durable and less likely to bend or break.

The brand

The brand of a pair of earrings can also be an indicator of their quality. Reputable jewelry brands tend to use high quality materials and offer warranties or repair services for their products. However, that doesn't mean that all brand name earrings are top quality, so it's important to do your research before buying. Beware of luxury brands (excluding jewellery) which offer brass jewelery gilded with fine gold (less than 1 micron) at prices often exceeding €500!

To conclude...

In summary, the quality of the earrings depends on the material, the finish, the design and the brand. Top quality earrings will be made from high quality materials, have an impeccable finish, a strong and secure design and will be sold by a reputable brand. When shopping for quality earrings, it's important to consider these factors to ensure you get a pair of earrings that will last a long time and look great.
