Emily’s note
“A solid teardrop with a full rounded belly, polished and left plain. Where another stud would put a stone, this one puts form, and the curve does the work the stone would have done. Thirteen millimetres long, so it reads as a drop without hanging.”

Questions
What are the Goutte Teardrop Studs made of?
18K gold vermeil over 925 sterling silver: solid 925 sterling silver beneath gold the maker specifies as vermeil. They are among the Amaurine pieces that carry the word, because vermeil is a defined standard rather than a marketing word, and the word appears only where it is true. Every piece names its karat, its base metal and its finish in the same words as our published standards. Our guide to gold finishes in Australia sets the finishes side by side, so you can see where vermeil sits.
Will the Goutte Teardrop Studs tarnish?
Gold does not tarnish, and on this piece it is the surface: 18K gold vermeil over 925 sterling silver. Keep the surface and you keep the gold. Last on, first off; off before water; a soft dry cloth after wearing; its pouch between wears. Every finish is covered by our 12-month craftsmanship warranty. The longer answer is in our article on whether gold vermeil tarnishes.
Are the Goutte Teardrop Studs suitable for sensitive ears?
Beneath the gold, the Goutte Teardrop Studs are 925 sterling silver, the metal most sensitive ears are happiest in. Put them in clean and dry, take them out before you sleep, and keep perfume and hairspray off them. If a particular metal troubles you, write to hello@amaurine.com before you order and we will confirm the components. Our guide to earrings for sensitive ears covers what to look for.
How do I look after the Goutte Teardrop Studs?
A dry, soft cloth, and nothing more. Silver dips, polishing cloths and abrasive creams are made to strip a surface layer, which on this piece is the gold you want to keep. If it needs more than a wipe: warm water, a drop of mild soap, then dry it completely. The full routine is on our care page.
