Gold Stud Earrings

14K Gold Stud Earrings in Solid Yellow Gold

Our 14K gold stud earring collection features timeless designs crafted in solid yellow gold, designed for everyday wear and built to last generations. Each pair is created in our Ontario studio with precision casting, hand finishing, and rigorous quality control. From classic polished studs to geometric shapes and decorative motifs, every piece combines minimalist elegance with structural integrity and all-day comfort.

Stud earrings are refined essentials defined by simplicity, balance, and enduring design. Our gold stud earrings are backed by a lifetime warranty and designed for repairability, ensuring your earrings can be maintained, restored, and cherished throughout their life.

Why Choose 14K Gold Stud Earrings

Solid 14K gold offers the ideal balance of purity, strength, and affordability for earrings worn daily. Unlike gold plated or vermeil pieces that wear away over time, solid gold maintains its integrity and never exposes base metal. Learn why gold-plated jewelry fails and what makes gold jewelry heirloom quality.

14K yellow gold contains 58.3% pure gold alloyed with copper, silver, and zinc for durability and warm color. This composition resists tarnish and withstands daily wear better than higher karat golds. Compare 14K vs 18K vs 24K gold and explore how gold alloys affect strength, color, and wear.

Solid 14K gold is hypoallergenic and suitable for sensitive ears. Unlike plated jewelry that can expose irritating base metals, solid gold maintains consistent composition for maximum comfort during continuous wear. Our casting process ensures structural integrity while maintaining lightweight proportions. Understand the difference between casting vs forging and why repairability matters for long-term value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sleep and shower in gold stud earrings?
Yes. 14K gold is durable enough for continuous wear, and stud earrings' secure design makes them suitable for sleeping and showering. However, removing earrings periodically allows you to clean both the earrings and your piercings. Review our complete jewelry care guide and understand daily wear effects on gold jewelry.

Will my gold stud earrings tarnish or change color?
14K yellow gold resists tarnish under normal conditions. Minor surface dulling from oils, lotions, or environmental exposure can be restored with gentle cleaning. Learn more about whether solid gold tarnishes and how sweat, water, and skin chemistry affect gold.

Are gold stud earrings suitable for sensitive ears?
Yes. Solid 14K gold is hypoallergenic and suitable for most sensitive ears. Unlike plated jewelry that can expose irritating base metals, solid gold maintains consistent composition. Ensure both posts and backs are solid gold for maximum comfort and to prevent allergic reactions.

How do I choose the right stud earring size?
Consider your personal style and lifestyle. Smaller studs (3-6mm) offer subtle elegance for everyday wear. Medium studs (7-10mm) provide balanced presence suitable for most occasions. Larger studs (10mm+) make bolder statements. Lightweight 14K gold ensures comfort regardless of size.

Can stud earrings be repaired if posts bend or backs are lost?
Yes. Solid gold construction allows for professional repair, including replacing posts, backs, or butterfly clasps, and refinishing surfaces. This repairability is a key advantage of solid gold over plated alternatives. Learn why repairability matters and when to seek professional jewelry maintenance.
