Amber Earring

Precious amber earrings are essential to an amber jewelry collection. Whether you love Baltic amber clip earrings, green amber stud earrings or cute amber heart dangle earrings, you're sure to find the perfect pair.

When choosing a pair of Polish or Baltic amber earrings, be sure to look for inclusions in the stones. Inclusions are veins and spots in the amber gem that give it sparkle and the mottled appearance that is so gorgeous. You'll find these gems in stunning golds, greens and reds.

If you are looking for a pair of antique or rare Tibetan amber earrings, pick the best color -- a deep butterscotch gold. You'll find these antique amber earrings in yellow, too. Often Tibetan amber earrings have cabochons created from antique amber beads -- that's how exceedingly rare this gem has become. You can tell the ambers were once part of antique beads because you'll see the hollow center. Often in amber earrings the hole is filled with a deep red coral or sterling silver.

You'll find amber earrings in many styles and colors, including the stunniing green amber. Most amber earrings are set in sterling silver, but you can find them in other metals, too. The critical factor is making sure they are comfortable. Select leverback amber earrings or those with hooks for ultimate in comfort.

Look for amber hoop earrings adorned with beads of the gemstone or long dangles with gorgeous drops of amber gems. Many amber earrings today are cut in princess and emerald cuts. Choose settings with gorgeous filigree or hand cut silverworks.

If you love a more clean, simple look, choose amber earrings set in high polish sterling silver. Contemporary designs are often set in the incredibly shiny metal.

Be sure to avoid applying hairspray or perfume while wearing your amber earrings. If you don't wear them regularly, store your sterling silver amber jewelry in plastic to keep it from tarnishing.
