Examples of Chandelier Earrings


Like the name implies, chandelier earrings look like miniature chandeliers with tiers of eye-catching details and sparkling gemstones. They are wider than typical dangle and drop earrings. Diamonds are the gem of choice for chandelier earrings–whether earth-mined or lab created depending on your budget and preferences. You can pair larger earrings with simpler earrings if you have multiple ear piercings.


When selecting chandelier earrings, keep your style and occasion in mind. Then length and shape matter as well as the level of adornment. Larger and more sparkly earrings work well for special occasions and nights out. Simpler, smaller chandeliers can be worn both day and night.

Metal Options


Chandelier earrings are available in many different types of metals to suit your style and budget:

• Platinum: If you’re looking for a hypoallergenic option with a classic, sophisticated look, then platinum is an ideal choice.

Helpful Hints for Selecting Chandelier Earrings


You have plenty of available options, but here are some helpful hints as you browse chandelier earrings.


• Choose a style that complements the shape of your face. For example, broader chandelier earrings in a medium or short length look best with someone with a longer, thin face. And slim and long chandelier earrings will look best on broad, round faces because they elongate the face.


• Choose a hairstyle that will draw focus to your chandelier earrings. You don’t want your earrings to get tangled in long hair. While shorter hair doesn’t need to be pulled back, long hair can be so that you can see the earrings better and your hair will not interfere with your dazzling earrings. For example, a messy bun or a high ponytail complement larger, longer earrings like chandeliers.


• Keep your budget in mind and pick the metal and style accordingly, as this feature affects both the appearance and cost of the bangle. More adorned earrings will be more expensive, but simpler versions are more affordable. In addition, metal options like platinum can increase your budget as well.


• For gifting, consider the person’s personal style preference in mind. Observe what type of metals and styles of jewelry they wear most often. Do they attend a lot of special occasions and events, or tend to stay in?


• Buy from a reputed brand that offers easy returns and exchange if you’re dissatisfied with the product or have an issue.
