While some will say that no jewelry box is complete without a pair of diamond studs, we also think it should contain at least one pair of drop earrings. But there's a point of issue here. Should they be drop earrings or chandelier earrings?
Most people believe that chandelier earrings are just a form of drop earrings but there is a difference that any jewelry aficionado understands. Drop earrings can take many forms from simple to highly elaborate but in form, they drop their embellishments from a vertical thin or thick line-line shape.
Chandelier earrings are so-called because they are reminiscent of light fixtures of the same name. Like drop earrings, they are long and dangly but instead of a vertical linear form, they hang in sections from a stud, fanning out from the base creating a diamond-like of half-circle shape.
A pair of beautiful
chandelier earrings make for the perfect statement piece for a special or formal occasion, but some styles can easily be incorporated into a more casual style. The right pair of chandelier earrings can look great with jeans and t-shirt!
