Pearl styles to shop

Pearl stud earrings — Timeless pearl studs, diamond-accented styles, and modern pearl clusters from designers including Jennie Kwon.

Pearl threader earrings — Lightweight pull-through threader earrings from 8.6.4 that create an elegant, adjustable drop without a traditional backing.

Pearl necklaces — Minimalist pearl pendants, pearl-and-opal necklaces, and everyday layering pieces crafted in solid 14k gold.

What is a threader earring?

A threader earring is a lightweight chain or slim bar that threads directly through your ear piercing instead of using a traditional post and backing. Because the chain hangs freely on both sides of the ear, you can adjust the length to create a subtle or dramatic drop, making threader earrings a versatile and contemporary everyday style.

Pair your pearls

Pearls pair effortlessly with your everyday jewelry collection. Layer a pearl necklace with your favorite gold chains, mix pearl studs with everyday hoops or huggies, or complete your look with stacking rings and bracelets. Explore our complete fine jewelry collection to discover complementary pieces designed to mix, match, and wear together.
