Choosing Apple Earrings That Fit Your Style

Apple earrings are small, and that is the point. At 5/16" wide and 11/32" tall, this pair sits close to the earlobe and reads as a bright spot of color rather than a statement piece. If you want something that swings and catches attention, look at a longer drop style instead. If you want a pair you can forget you are wearing, apple earrings are the better pick.

They pair best with plain tops. A white shirt, a navy sweater or a denim jacket lets the red enamel do the talking.

How to Wear Apple Earrings Through the Year

Autumn is the obvious season, and it works. Think camel coats, plaid scarves and a trip to the orchard. But the red and green also look good in summer with a linen dress, and the pair is an easy one to wear at Christmas without looking too themed.

For work

The size keeps them professional. Teachers get the most use out of them, for obvious reasons, and they make a quiet nod to the classroom that does not feel like a costume.

For casual days

Wear them with a striped tee and jeans. Keep other jewelry minimal, maybe a thin silver chain, so the earrings stay the focus.

Caring for Enamel and Sterling Silver

Enamel is glass fused onto metal. It is hard, but it can chip if the earrings are dropped on tile or stone, so store them in a soft pouch and not loose in a drawer with other pieces.

Clean them with a soft, damp cloth and dry them right away. Skip silver dips and ultrasonic cleaners, since the harsh solutions can dull the glossy finish. A polishing cloth is fine on the silver back and posts, but keep it off the colored areas.

  • Put them on after perfume and hairspray, not before.
  • Take them off before swimming, showering or workouts.
  • Wipe the silver after each wear to slow tarnish.

Other Animal and Nature Earrings Worth a Look

If you enjoy playful, small-scale designs, the same idea carries over to other themes. Dog lovers often go for dachshund earrings, which have the same lighthearted feel in a different shape. Riders and country-style dressers tend to prefer horse horseshoe earrings, and those work well worn together with an apple pair for gift sets or a mix-and-match collection.

Something a little dressier? Turquoise dangling earrings give you the color without the cartoon element, and they sit well alongside a casual wardrobe.

Apple Earrings as a Gift

They suit teachers, gardeners, bakers and anyone with a September birthday. A pair in the lower price range for sterling silver, often around $30 to $50, makes them a sensible end-of-year or thank-you present. Slip them into a small box with a handwritten note and you are done.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these apple earrings good for sensitive ears?

Sterling silver is 92.5 percent pure silver, and most people tolerate it well. Those with a nickel allergy usually do fine, but if your ears react to silver alloys, test them for an hour or two first.

Will the enamel color fade?

Fired enamel keeps its color for years with normal wear. Sunlight and cleaning chemicals are not a problem as long as you wipe them gently and avoid soaking them.

Are they too small to notice?

They are under half an inch tall, so they are subtle up close. The red is strong enough that people do notice them in conversation, especially against dark hair or a neutral top.

Can children wear them?

The lightweight build makes them comfortable for teens. For small children, check the backs and make sure they fit securely, as tiny parts can be a hazard.
