Men’s earrings are big business and you don’t get much better than diamond earrings for men, so there are plenty of fabulous designs around. In this article, we will highlight some of the best we’ve seen.
For many of us that complain that men are difficult to buy, for a man who’s got his ear(s) pierced, diamond earrings have got to be the perfect gift idea.
Singles or Pairs?
Many diamond earrings for men come as a single earring – although there are lots of options for men’s earrings sold in pairs. If you particularly want a pair of men’s earrings, do check the description carefully to see if that’s what you’ll be buying.
If you’re struggling to find something you like, even from our fabulous list below, and you want a pair of earrings for men instead of a single try looking in the ladies earrings section. There are many styles to chose from there that aren’t too frilly or fussy.
Diamond Earrings for Men
Whether it be a stud, a dangle or a hoop, jewelry designers recognise that men value their style too and often want to wear the real thing when it comes to gemstones and not just a cubic zirconia (which, of course, look great and have their place and are a fabulous starting point).
But if you want to push the boat out, feel a little more affluent, don’t worry there are now plenty of men’s earrings that have been set with real diamonds.
Lab-Grown Diamonds
And don’t forget the new kid on the block, lab-grown diamonds – chemically identical, only having the advantage of also being flawless and colourless (which is the most desirable achievement in natural diamonds and incredibly rare – and expensive!). Lab-grown diamonds are often a fraction of the price of mined diamonds.
The Best Diamond Earrings for Men
Here’s what we think are currently the best diamond earrings for men. Some we’ve displayed in white gold but they can be purchased in yellow gold or even silver. We suggest that if you would like the earring in a different metal, that you click through and look at the product description as they may have other options available.
