The stud is the simplest design for an earring, usually consisting of a single stone attached to a wire post and secured with a standard back.
Acrostic Daisy Stud Earrings — Name Spelled in Silver Petals
These daisy-shaped stud earrings turn a name into the petals of a flower. Each petal carries one hand-enameled letter in black, wrapping around a bright yellow enamel center, with two green enamel leaves finishing the stem below. Cast in sterling silver and sized to keep the lettering legible at a wearable stud scale, the design started from a hand-drawn sketch and was refined through several rounds of review before the petal color and font size were finalized. The result is a small, wearable piece that reads as a flower first and a name second — a personal detail hidden in plain sight. It suits anyone who wants a meaningful name piece that doesn’t look like a typical nameplate or monogram.
Yellow Topaz & Opal Halo Stud Earrings in 14k Gold
These stud earrings were designed around a round yellow topaz center stone, approximately 5.5mm, surrounded by a full halo of small opal accent stones. Set in 14k yellow gold with a raised outer rim, the halo construction was specifically adjusted to keep the opals protected while preserving an open, uncovered look at the client’s request. The result is a classic, elegant stud intended for special-occasion wear rather than everyday use. The combination of yellow topaz and opal is a distinctive pairing not often seen together, chosen here specifically to bring two meaningful stones into one cohesive design.
