Birthstone jewellery is one of the most personal gifts you can give — and one of the easiest to wear every day. These birthstone stud earrings feature a mini CZ stone in the colour of each month, set on a 925 sterling silver base with 18K gold plating. All 12 months are available: select yours from the colour options above. Understated enough for daily wear, meaningful enough to make them a go-to gift.
What Makes These Worth It
-
925 sterling silver base: Real sterling silver — not brass or zinc alloy — for better durability, hypoallergenic wear, and a more stable foundation for the gold plating.
-
18K gold plating: Electroplated for a warm, rich colour that's consistent and smooth. Far more durable than standard gold-tone plating on brass bases.
-
Mini CZ birthstone: A small, colour-matched cubic zirconia stone representing each birth month — subtle sparkle that reads as intentional without being overdone.
-
Hypoallergenic & nickel-free: Safe for sensitive ears, including healed piercings.
-
Butterfly push-back closure: Secure for all-day wear and easy to put on and take off.
-
All 12 months available: January through December — select your birth month from the options above.

How to Style Them
Birthstone studs are one of the most versatile earring styles you can own — the small stone adds a pop of colour without competing with the rest of your look. Wear them solo for a clean, minimal everyday look, or pair with a delicate chain necklace in the same gold tone for a cohesive feel. Because the studs are small, they work equally well with statement necklaces and bold outfits without the look feeling overdone.
As a gift, birthstone earrings are a universally appreciated choice — personal, wearable every day, and available for every birth month. They work for birthdays, anniversaries, Mother's Day, and any occasion where you want to give something meaningful without being over-the-top.
Care & Longevity
18K gold plating over sterling silver lasts 1–3 years with proper care. Remove before showering, swimming, and exercising — moisture is the primary cause of plating deterioration. Apply perfume and lotion before putting earrings on, not after. Wipe with a soft dry cloth after each wear. Store in a soft pouch or lined jewellery box, away from other pieces to prevent scratching.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these earrings hypoallergenic?
Yes. The base is 925 sterling silver — nickel-free and hypoallergenic. The 18K gold plating adds an extra barrier between the metal and your skin, making these safe for most people with metal sensitivities.
Are the stones real gemstones?
No — the stones are cubic zirconia in the colour of each birth month's traditional gemstone. CZ gives the same colour and sparkle at a fraction of the cost, and is more consistent in clarity and colour than natural stones at this price point.
How long does the gold plating last?
With proper care — kept dry, away from perfume and chemicals, stored in a soft pouch — the 18K gold plating typically lasts 1–3 years before showing wear at high-contact points.
Are these suitable for newly pierced ears?
We recommend waiting until your piercing is fully healed — typically 6–8 weeks for lobes, longer for cartilage — before wearing plated jewellery. Once healed, the hypoallergenic sterling silver base makes these a safe option for most people.
Are these a good gift?
Yes — birthstone earrings are one of the most thoughtful jewellery gifts you can give. Personal, wearable every day, and available for all 12 months. They arrive packaged and ready to gift without extra wrapping needed.
Can I sleep in these earrings?
We recommend removing earrings before sleeping to prevent bending or accelerated plating wear. Small studs are generally safer than drops or hoops if you prefer to leave them in, but removing them is always the better option for longevity.
