Earrings 925 silver Wait — "argent" here likely means "silver" generally, not specifically "argent 925." Earrings silver

Yes, 925 silver is durable enough for daily wear. It is hypoallergenic and lightweight, making it a comfortable choice for earrings worn from morning to evening. Precious stones such as diamond and sapphire (hardness 9–10 on the Mohs scale) withstand the demands of everyday life with ease. Simply remove your earrings before showering or swimming.

Caring for your silver earrings is straightforward:

• Clean with a specialist silver polishing cloth or warm soapy water
• Dry immediately and thoroughly
• Remove before showering, exercising, or sleeping
• Avoid contact with perfume and cosmetic products
• Store in a jewellery box or anti-tarnish pouch

Regular care is all it takes to preserve their brilliance for years to come.

Silver tarnishes naturally when exposed to sulphur found in the air, perspiration, and certain products. This oxidation forms a dark layer on the surface of the metal. It is a normal process that does not affect the quality of the piece. To restore the shine, gently buff with a specialist silver cloth or soak briefly in warm water with a pinch of bicarbonate of soda. Vermeil is more resistant to tarnishing, thanks to its gold coating.

Mayuri Paris uses high-quality fastenings suited to each earring style:

• Push-back (butterfly): the classic, secure choice for studs and small earrings
• Hinged hoop (sleeper): a fold-back clasp offering maximum comfort and a secure fit
• Hinge clasp: designed for hoops, allowing easy opening and closing

All fastenings are crafted in 925 silver or vermeil, matched to the metal of the earring.

For daily wear, opt for the most hardwearing stones:

• Diamond and black diamond (10 Mohs): scratch-proof and the safest choice
• Sapphire and ruby (9 Mohs): excellent resistance to impact
• Emerald (7.5–8 Mohs): slightly more delicate, ideal for special occasions

For studs worn continuously, diamond or sapphire are the perfect choice. For drop earrings reserved for special moments, all gemstones are suitable.

925 silver is hypoallergenic and suitable for the vast majority of people, including those with sensitive ears. Allergic reactions are rare and are usually linked to sensitivity to copper, which makes up 7.5% of the alloy. If this applies to you, opt for vermeil: its gold coating prevents direct contact between the alloy and the skin. If in any doubt, consult a dermatologist.

Studs are discreet earrings that sit directly on the earlobe, secured with a post and a butterfly back. They offer a minimalist, refined aesthetic. Sleeper earrings feature a clasp that folds behind the lobe, providing a more secure hold. They often showcase a more elaborate design, with a pendant stone. Both styles are perfectly suited to everyday wear.

The shape of your earrings can beautifully harmonise your facial features:

• Round face: opt for drop earrings and elongated shapes to create definition
• Oval face: all shapes work well, as this is the most versatile face shape
• Square face: hoops and rounded shapes soften angular features
• Oblong face: studs and shorter earrings help balance the length

Beyond these guidelines, the most important thing is to choose the style that makes you feel your best.

Mixing silver and gold is a thoroughly modern approach to fine jewellery. The combination creates a contemporary, effortless look. For a cohesive result, keep a unifying thread: the same gemstones or a consistent design aesthetic. Silver earrings paired with a yellow gold necklace, or vermeil earrings alongside a rose gold ring, are both very much on-trend combinations.

Vermeil is 925 silver coated with a thick layer of gold (minimum 2.5 microns). For earrings, it offers the warmth and brilliance of yellow gold with the lightness and accessibility of silver. It is an excellent choice for those who love the look of gold but seek a more attainable option. Vermeil is also more resistant to tarnishing than plain silver, thanks to its protective gold layer.
