Gold Earrings

Evidence of the wearing of gold earrings dates back to the biblical writings of Moses and to carvings of soldiers on palace walls of Persepolis the ancient Persian Empire. During the 1920s, gold earrings were popular among U.S. sailors and often used to signify that the wearer had sailed the world, crossed the Equator or survived a sinking ship. Gold earrings also were believed to be an insurance policy of sorts. Sailors believed that an earring would be taken from the body of a sailor washed ashore and accepted a payment for a proper Christian burial.

In the U.S. today, gold earrings are simply a beautiful adornment worn by both women and men. Guy Beard's jewelry lines include a vast selection of gold earrings, silver earrings and stainless steel earrings in styles ranging from cocktail party dressy to beach casual.
