Hand-Made Earrings

If you’ve trawled the internet for what seems like an eternity but there don’t seem to be any earrings out there that meet your exacting standards, consider the hand-made option. Like most types of jewellery, you can find a silversmith or other specialist to hand-craft a pair of earrings that is exactly what you’ve been seeking. And often, there isn’t even a wait involved.

Many jewellers who specialise in hand-made earrings have a large selection of ready-made pieces for you to view. Usually, the variety of earrings on offer in a custom boutique will be far more artistic, less traditional and decidedly unique. If you have a specific design in mind, most online jewellery artisans are willing to take sketches, pictures and descriptions to shape the earrings you want from materials you select.

Hand-made earrings can include a host of different adornments – from crystals and gemstones to simple plastic or glass beads. Some people opt to include tiny trinkets that hold a special sentimental value, like shells from a trip to the sea or small stones collected on a rafting adventure. Most jewellers will work with you to incorporate specific shapes and themes into the piece. It is important to bear in mind that earrings are small – and it is critical to consider the weight of the earring, you wouldn’t want it to damage the wearer’s ear.

If you’re having hand-made earrings designed for you by an online jeweller, try to submit concrete examples of what you’re after to avoid disappointment. Also, as the work progresses, ask the jeweller to send you photos of the piece in progress so you can ensure the design is living up to your expectations. Be sure to check whether the earrings will be returnable, and get a clear statement regarding the online vendor’s policy for exchanges and refunds.
