Choosing Drop Earrings
Designs range from around £65 for a small hammered silver pair to several thousand pounds for diamond drops, with most falling between £99 and £450. You'll find them in sterling silver, 9ct and 18ct gold and platinum, set with pearls, lapis lazuli, tourmaline, tiger's eye, ruby zoisite, emerald and aquamarine, alongside our signature Bubbles, Trap and Nugget styles.
Longer drops make a real statement for an occasion, while shorter dangly styles are easy to wear every day. Most fasten with a secure hook or post, and we can adjust the length, change the stone or design a bespoke pair with you. Gold and platinum pieces carry a 10- and 20-year guarantee and silver a 2-year guarantee, with free re-polishing on any piece we make.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a drop earring?
A drop earring hangs just below the earlobe from a fixed fitting, so it moves gently as you do — that dangling movement is what catches the light. They're sometimes called dangly earrings, and our collection ranges from short, subtle drops for everyday wear to longer statement designs for special occasions.
What metals and gemstones do your drop earrings come in?
Our drop earrings are made in sterling silver, 9ct and 18ct gold and platinum, set with pearls, lapis lazuli, tourmaline, tiger's eye, ruby zoisite, emerald, aquamarine and diamonds. Designs span our signature Bubbles, Trap and Nugget styles as well as classic pearl and diamond drops.
How do your drop earrings fasten, and are they secure?
Most of our drops fasten with a hook (sometimes called a shepherd's hook) or a post and butterfly back. Because each pair is handmade and kept light, they're comfortable to wear all day, and we can fit a particular type of back if you let us know your preference.
Can drop earrings be made bespoke, and are they guaranteed?
Yes. As everything is handmade in Ditchling, we can adjust the length, change a gemstone or design a bespoke pair with you, and each order arrives gift-boxed. Gold pieces carry a 10-year guarantee, platinum 20 years and silver 2 years against manufacturing faults, with free re-polishing on any piece we make.
