Custom made earrings by George Rykhalsky

When choosing earrings, it is important to consider not only the design and characteristics of the product itself. But what is also important to consider is: hairstyle, hair and eye colour, facial proportions and other important factors. I will go into all of this during the first consultation. But to begin with, here are some basics:

The type of metal and its quality. Silver, gold or platinum must be of highest quality. This figure characterises the amount of precious metal in the common alloy - the larger it is, the better quality the product is. Remember - low quality metal can lead to unwanted skin reactions. Meanwhile custom made earrings made out of platinum do not cause any allergies.

Form and design. I can help you choose the right design based on the photo of the future owner. Style should be based on the image, facial proportions, hairstyle, hair and eye colour, as well as on numerous other factors. An individual selection of shape and design distinguishes custom-made earrings from standardised factory products.

The type of clasp. In every clasp, in addition to its strength and reliability, the harpoon section is important. This is the part that goes through the lobe and its length. A harpoon that is too long will distort the position of the earring, while a harpoon that is too short or too thick will cause discomfort and press the jewellery into the skin. As for reliability, here you need to be sure in the quality of the jeweller’s work - with precise work any type of clasp will be strong.

Precious stones. They should match the overall design and work in harmony with the owner’s appearance and age. Custom made diamond earrings should be balanced in shape, design and the metal and stone match.
