Chain earring

What is a through-chain earring?

A drop chain earring is a classic women's earring featuring a delicate chain that passes through the ear. This timeless piece can be crafted from stainless steel (which won't tarnish), silver, 14-karat gold, or 14-karat gold or silver plating, so prices vary depending on the metal used. These earrings are often set with stones of all colors (such as zirconium), rhinestones, or beautiful white pearls, creating designs in all sorts of shapes—moons, stars, roses—and sometimes with an object at the end of the chain, making them also dangling chain earrings. Each piece is meticulously designed to create the most exquisite details possible for maximum sparkle.
