Elevate your style with our Black Rutilated Quartz Stud Earrings.
Handcrafted with precision in Barbados by Summer Gems, these earrings feature smooth black rutilated quartz gemstones wrapped in your choice of either sterling silver or 14kt gold-filled wire. Each pair comes complete with a matching ear back, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit.
These medium-sized stud earrings are perfect for first ear piercings, adding a touch of elegance and uniqueness to your daily look. The hypoallergenic nature of the materials used makes them suitable for those with sensitive ears, allowing for worry-free daily wear.
What sets our gemstone stud earrings apart is their thoughtful design concept. Instead of carrying pocket gems, you can have them with you always, adorning your ears with the enchanting beauty of black rutilated quartz. The gemstones are expertly wrapped in wire, eliminating the need for repairs if the stem happens to come loose, unlike typical handmade earrings with glued backs.Â

Jewelry Care
Your jewelry is made to last — but like anything special, it depends on how well you care for it. Here’s what you need to know to keep your pieces looking their best.
-
Gold-Filled Jewelry:
- Gold-filled is hypoallergenic and water-resistant, but regular exposure to sweat, oils, and chemicals can dull its shine over time.
- Clean frequently to remove buildup and keep the finish bright.
-
Sterling Silver:
- Silver will naturally tarnish, but it can be polished back to shine using a soft silver polishing cloth.
- Solid pieces like bars and pendants can be gently cleaned at home.
- For fine or delicate silver strands, scan the barcode on your packaging for a video care guide.
-
Pearls:
- Pearls are organic and respond beautifully to natural skin oils — but they are sensitive to perfumes, sprays, and chemicals.
- Wipe gently after wear and avoid exposing them to harsh products or excessive moisture.
-
General Care Tips:
- Don’t shower, swim, exercise, or get massages in your jewelry. Constant exposure to moisture, heat, and oils will weaken or damage your pieces over time.
- Handle your fine strands with care and remove jewelry before high-contact activities.
- A quick reference guide is included on the back of your packaging for everyday reminders.
-
Storage:
- Store each piece separately in the pouch provided to prevent scratches or tangling.
-
Cleaning:
- Use a soft polishing cloth for gold-filled and sterling silver pieces.
- Gently wipe pearls and delicate stones with a soft, damp cloth only.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive products on all jewelry types.
-
Maintenance:
- Inspect clasps and settings regularly for wear, and have any loose parts repaired promptly to avoid loss or damage.
