What are the different earring styles?

From small studs to large statement hoops, crystal earrings come in all styles. Which ones are your favorite?

Here are popular earring styles you will find: 

  • Animal EarringsCarved stone animals and animal charms hang from your new crystal earrings. Balance your energies with your spirit animals and keep these adorable critters at the forefront of your day.

  • Cage EarringsCage earrings keep your natural stones secured but visible. The stones can be switched out depending on mood. You can also add affirmation notes within the cages to help manifest your intentions. 

  • Dangle EarringsDangle earrings provide a balanced crystal healing energy for your aura. These earrings are designed to flow down from the bottom of the earlobe and can range in size from a small bead to a long, flowing chain dangling beyond the shoulders. Dangle earrings hang from French hooks, closed kidney wires, and even posts. Match your new beaded dangle earrings with similar stretch bracelets.

  • Heart EarringsThe ultimate symbol of love, wear and gift heart earrings for uplifting feelings of joy, friendship, and harmony.

  • Hoop Earrings: Crystal Hoop earrings combine bold fashion with crystal healing energies. Hoop earrings are circular or semi-circular designs adorned with natural stones and may hang from the earlobe from French hooks or posts. They can be large and in charge and give you that bold look you seek. 

  • Long EarringsAt Satin Crystals, our long earrings measure over 3 inches long. Long earrings provide a sophisticated look. They are especially dramatic set against a background of flowing long hair. If the earrings are long enough to touch your shoulders, they are also known as shoulder dusters!

  • Spiritual EarringsSpiritual earrings feature a symbol from the metaphysical world, may it be a revered deity, a lightworker's cross, or a beloved angel. 

  • Star EarringsShine as bright as your favorite star in the sky when you choose to wear earrings with star stones and star charms.

  • Stud EarringsKeep the crystal energies close to your skin with natural stone stud earrings. Stud earrings appear to float on the earlobe as the post is hidden behind the ear. Because stud earrings have a minimalistic style, they are perfect to pair with bold statement necklaces. 

What size earrings should I wear?

Earring size is up to personal preference. A petite person can wear oversized earrings, whereas a larger individual might opt for smaller studs.

If you want to embrace confidence and thrive in the spotlight, choose large statement earrings. 

If you love simplicity and elegance, choose small, delicate earrings. 

Earring choice comes down to personal style and what you feel most comfortable in. 

Earrings Guide - Sizing and Types - Satin Crystals Jewelry BoutiqueAre gemstone earrings heavy or light?

Good question! A lot of gemstones do have a bit of weight to them compared to plastic beads. However, not all. Jet, Shungite, and Amber are all examples of lightweight gemstones. 

If you are sensitive to the weight of your jewelry, I'd stick with small and lightweight stones (contact us if you're not sure about the average weight of the crystal you are eyeing).

If you are used to wearing earrings regularly, you should not have a problem with the weight. All of our earrings are tested by Sheila Satin, the designer, and our earring models, so they are comfortable for wear.

Some will be more comfortable to wear long-term than others. Larger hoop earrings or extra-long earrings may get in your way after a while if you are doing a lot of movement. Some heavier stone earrings, like Pyrite, may creep up on you after a few hours. 

Because earring weight is a relative term, contact us, and we are happy to advise you on a case-by-case basis. 

What are the benefits of wearing earrings?

What is the meaning of crystal earrings?

Crystal healing earrings symbolize a balance between your left and right brain. This balance helps to ground you in reality while harnessing the high vibrations of the spiritual world. 

They serve as physical tools to remind you of your manifestation goals, particularly useful in upper chakra work, like balancing your mental energy, spiritual connection, and communication center. 

Every crystal holds unique vibrational frequencies and metaphysical properties that can connect with your energy field. Find out more in Crystal Meanings

Do earrings make me look younger?

Earrings can give you a more youthful appearance, highlighting your features and bringing a shine to your face. Wearing fun, statement earrings especially gives you that vibrant vibe!

Wearing long earrings gives your face a sleek and slim look. Wearing matching earrings brings the balance and symmetry that is attractive to the beholder. Wearing faceted earrings adds a sparkling touch to your look.

Wearing just one earring is an individual style preference. Whereas it used to indicate sexual orientation for gay men in the 1970s to 1990s, it is no longer the case.

These days, anyone can wear just one earring without any significant cultural meaning. However, keep in mind that if you are wearing crystal earrings for balance, you will want to wear matching stones on each earlobe. 

How to care for your crystal earrings?

The care for your earrings will vary depending on what crystals are included. In general, you want to be very gentle when wearing and storing your gemstone earrings.

Some crystals are softer than others and won't like water or harsh chemicals. Other crystals may be okay in water, but the jewelry components will wear down with prolonged exposure to wetness, soaps, and lotions. When in doubt, use a soft cloth with the slightest amount of water or natural oils on your gemstones.

As for the metal, you will want to clean your earrings often to remove any buildup. Use a cloth to wipe down the metal or use a cleaning solution if your crystal will not be adversely affected.

Do you make custom crystal earrings?

If you are looking for a specific combination of crystals for your earrings, it may be possible to make a custom design for you. Keep in mind that we have only one jewelry designer here, Sheila Satin, and the time frame for your customization to be ready may be months from now.

If it is a small adjustment to designs that we already carry, your request may be granted.

If there is an urgency and a deadline for your custom earrings, you are requesting a design that is drastically different than what we already carry, or you are looking for metalwork, we recommend finding some talented jewelry designers on Etsy, where there are artisans who specialize in personalized designs. 

Meanwhile, we have a large selection of crystal earrings for you, ready-made at Satin Crystals. 

What if you are sold out of the earrings I like?

If we are temporarily sold out of earrings you like, contact us, and we will put you on the priority list. If the beads are in our studio, we can make your order on the spot.

If the earrings are sold out in all sizes, there will be a button where you can sign up to be notified when it is back in stock. 

What is the price of crystal earrings?

As you browse through the Satin Crystals Earrings Collection, you will notice the prices vary for the different gemstones. Prices are based on the gemstone's availability, quality, and size. The rarer the beads, the higher the price.

Sometimes, smaller beads may be just as expensive as their larger counterparts because they are harder to handle and therefore take more time to create.
