If you appreciate versatile jewelry, earring jackets might be the perfect addition to your jewelry collection. What are earring jackets? They are design components worn with a pair of personal stud or post earrings. For example the hand crafted sterling metal hoop earring jackets above can be styled three ways - the hoops with the sterling studs, just the studs or wear the hoop earring jackets with a personal pair of stud earrings such as diamond or pearl studs, resulting in lots of versatility.

Earring Jackets with Gemstone Studs - Each pair of gemstone studs is designed with beautiful handmade removable textured earring jackets. The versatile gemstone earrings can be worn multiple ways - the studs with the jackets, just the studs or metal elements with a personal pair of stud earrings.

Two Set Earring Jackets

I fell in love with earring jackets back in the eighties while working at a jewelry store in the mall. It was love at first sight and I had to have a pair. Luckily my mom, gave me her 14k gold earring jackets and I was ready to create lots of styles. I still have those beautiful dainty earring jackets and continue admiring their beauty. The earring jacket concept inspired me so much over the years, when I became a jewelry designer it felt natural adding them to the MONOLISA jewelry collection. In the below video, designer Lisa Ramos explains the details behind the earring jacket concept.
