A Complete Guide to Stud Earrings – Timeless, Elegant, and Versatile

Stud earrings are one of the most classic and essential pieces of jewelry. Their simple yet sophisticated design makes them a must-have for any jewelry collection, whether for everyday wear, formal events, or special occasions. Unlike dangling or hoop earrings, stud earrings sit directly on the earlobe without extending beyond it, creating a subtle yet eye-catching effect.

At Jas Boutique, we offer an exquisite collection of 14K, 18K, and 22K gold stud earrings, featuring diamonds, pearls, sapphires, rubies, emeralds, and other fine gemstones.
