Description
Deep black ruthenium plating gives these sterling silver Shepherd Hook Earrings a dark, polished look that feels modern and understated. The metal is sterling silver, finished in ruthenium for a smooth black surface that contrasts with brighter jewelry. Each earring hangs from a curved French wire that passes through the ear and lets the piece move freely as you turn your head. Wear them with a charcoal sweater or a black dress and the finish blends in cleanly. A thoughtful pick for anyone who prefers minimalist jewelry. Easy to pack, easy to wear.

What is the difference between a drop and a dangle earring?
A drop hangs still, a dangle moves. Both sit below the lobe and add length, which suits evenings and events. Each listing names its closure.
Will sterling silver earrings tarnish?
Sterling silver can darken over time. Wipe each pair with a soft cloth after wearing and store it dry and on its own.
How do I care for my jewelry?
Wipe it with a soft cloth and store each piece on its own. Keep it away from lotions, chlorine and harsh cleaners. See our jewelry care page for more tips.
