Earrings are a lovely thing to give and a hard thing to choose. You know she wears them. You just don't know which pair she would reach for. This collection is picked to make that easier, and every piece sits under $80.
Each pair is made in 925 sterling silver with 18k or 14k gold plating. Both are hypoallergenic and gentle on sensitive skin, so you are not gambling on whether her ears will react. That matters more than it sounds. Plenty of people own earrings they love and cannot wear.
Below you will find pieces grouped by who you are buying for, from the minimalist to the one who already has five piercings.
For someone with sensitive ears
If she has ever taken her earrings out by lunchtime, start here. Every piece we make is built on sterling silver, which is nickel-free and one of the gentlest metals for reactive skin.
The minimalist wants one good pair she can wear every day without thinking. A plain dome huggie or a small gold hoop does that, and it works with everything she already owns.
The collector is a different brief. She has three piercings and a plan. For her, a set works better than a single pair. Our earring stacks are built to sit together in different sizes, so you are giving her the whole look rather than one piece of it.
If you are unsure which she is, look at what she wears now. One pair on repeat, or a different combination every week.
For the romantic, and for a first piercing
Flowers, hearts and pearls are the safest kind of personal. They show you thought about her without needing to know her exact taste. Our flora jewellery and heart earrings sit in this space, and most are under $75.
A first piercing needs something different again. Comfort matters more than sparkle for the first few months. Small, light and easy to sleep in is the brief, which is where sleeper earrings earn their place.
When you have no idea
Sometimes you know she likes earrings and nothing else. That is a fair place to be.
Two options work well. A gift card lets her choose, which matters here because earrings cannot be returned once they have been worn. That is a hygiene rule rather than a policy we enjoy, and a card sidesteps it completely.
The second is a stack set. It puts more than one option in the box, so at least one pair is likely to become a favourite.
Frequently asked questions
What is a safe earring gift for someone with sensitive ears?
Sterling silver is the gentlest place to start. It is nickel-free and suits most reactive skin. Flatback styles are also worth considering, as they sit flush against the lobe with less movement and less irritation. Everyone's skin is different, so it may still take a little trial.
How much should I spend on earrings as a gift?
Every piece in this collection is under $80, which is a comfortable range for most gifting. If you would like more choice, you can also browse gifts under $100.
Should I choose gold or silver?
Look at what she already wears. If you truly cannot tell, gold plating is the safer guess. It suits most skin tones and reads as a little more special.
Can earrings be returned?
Earrings cannot be returned once they have been worn, for hygiene reasons. If you are unsure of her taste, a gift card is the better choice.
What if something goes wrong with them?
Every piece carries a six month warranty against manufacturing defects. If something is not right, get in touch and we will sort it out.
