Pearl Studs

Pearl studs are a classic earring choice that features a single pearl mounted on a post - either in gold or sterling silver. Their simplicity make them a must-have staple. Pearl stud earrings suit any age and occasion, effortlessly elevating both casual and formal outfits.

If you're wondering what size pearl stud earrings are best, the answer depends on your style and preference. If you're after a larger stud that makes a statement, we recommend our Cygnet Bay (WA) grown Australian South Sea pearls that are typically 10mm to 10.5mm in size. Smaller pearls offer subtle elegance, and our Broken Bay (NSW) grown Australian Akoya pearls are around 7mm in size. We also offer Keshi Pearl Studs for a more unique look.

Absolutely! Pearl stud earrings continue to trend through the generations, and are perfect to pair with a matching necklace. They're as popular on red carpets as they are in everyday wardrobes.

Pearl stud earrings are one of the most universally loved gift choices, precisely because they suit every age, style, and occasion. Whether you're shopping for a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or a first pair of fine jewellery for someone special, a pair of pearl studs is a gift that will be treasured for a lifetime. Every pair from Pearls of Australia arrives with complimentary gift wrapping and a Certificate of Authenticity, making the unboxing experience as memorable as the earrings themselves.

Pearl stud earrings are easy to care for and will maintain their natural lustre with a few simple habits. After each wear, gently wipe the pearls with a soft, damp cloth to remove any traces of perfume, cosmetics, or skin oils. Store them in a soft pouch, kept away from harder jewellery pieces that could scratch the pearl's surface. It's also worth cleaning the gold or silver posts periodically to keep the settings looking their best. For full care instructions across all our pearl jewellery, visit our Product Care page.
