DROP-DEAD JEWELRY DROPS
Today, we take a rest from raindrops and teardrops and get all bedazzled with diamond, emerald, and pearl drops, to name a few, as we gather a collection of the most beautiful drop earrings happening right now.
1. BLACK DIAMOND DROPS
A big bad whopping 71 carats of black diamond drops are set in 18 kt oxidized gold, surrounded by over 2 carats of white diamonds and 6 black diamonds. Jaw-dropping! Pun intended.
Available at 1st Dibs.
2. OLD MINE CUT DIAMOND DROPS
These diamond drop earrings are not just a drippy bunch of sparkles, as many tend to be. These feature old mine cut diamonds in antique foliate settings. The drops are removeable so the tops can be worn as diamond solitaire drop earrings.
3. MAURASAKI AMETRINE PEARL DROPS
These spectacular one-of-a-kind ametrine drop earrings, designed by Russell Trusso, are adorned with Maurasaki pearls, diamonds, and 18k yellow gold accents.
Trusso was a neuro-anesthesiologist at the Cleveland Clinic before deciding to pursue his artistic passion. He uses carved gemstones, colorful enamel, uniquely shaped pearls and embedded diamonds to create highly original edgy pieces.
Available at 1st Dibs.
4. PINK TOPAZ & CITRINE DROPS
These pink topaz and citrine drops, by Christina Addison, remind us of pink lemonade. Perfect on a breezy spring evening.
Available at 1st Dibs.
5. NUT WOOD & DIAMOND DROPS
These wooden drops by Donna Vock are genius. They unexpectedly combine natural earthiness of nut wood, polished to elegance, with 108 round 08 round G, VS diamonds, set in 18K yellow gold.
Available at 1st Dibs.
6. AMETHYST DIAMOND FLOWER DROPS
Old style elements marry with a modern shape and cut in these beautiful purple amethyst and diamond drop Eden Flower earrings by Kiki McDonough, all hanging from delicate diamond flower studs. All set in 18ct rose gold.
Available at 1st Dibs.
7. EMERALD & RUBY DROPS
Emerald and ruby are not a usual combination. That might be the first reason Jade Jagger considered them together as she designed this knockout pair of ruby & emerald drop earrings. The colors pop and sing happy songs.
Available at 1st Dibs.
8. TURQUOISE CHANDELIER DROPS
These incredible turquoise chandelier drops are a total joy. It’s an unusual use of the light blue stones. They look like turquoise rain. Set in 18k Yellow Gold.

These drop earrings are a unique fusion of tough irridescent titanium and diamond studs. The tops are 18k white gold diamond hoops.

10. EMERALD & DIAMOND DROPS
These earrings from Fred Leighton look like real drops of water dripping from your lobes. Made of Colombian emeralds and diamonds, they are like a sweet soft gentle rain.
