Q: What size are these earrings?
A: These earrings are a small stud style, measuring approximately 1 cm wide, 0.7 cm high and 0.2 cm deep. They are ideal if you prefer a subtle everyday look rather than a larger statement earring.

Q: What are these earrings made from?
A: This pair is silver and features the iconic Elsa Peretti Bean shape, known for its smooth, sculptural and organic look.

Q: How do they fasten?
A: They have post back closures, so they are designed for pierced ears and sit close to the earlobe in a classic stud format.

Q: What does the Elsa Peretti Bean design symbolise?
A: The Bean design is widely associated with life’s origins and is one of Elsa Peretti’s most recognisable motifs. Its soft, rounded form gives it a timeless and minimalist feel.

Q: Are they suitable for everyday wear?
A: Yes, their compact stud design makes them easy to wear day to day. As with most silver jewellery, it is best to remove them before showering, swimming, exercising or applying perfume, lotion and hair products.

Q: Will silver tarnish over time?
A: Silver can naturally tarnish with exposure to air, moisture and certain chemicals. This is normal and can usually be managed with gentle cleaning and proper storage.

Q: How should I care for them?
A: Wipe them gently with a soft cloth after wear and store them completely dry in a jewellery box or soft pouch. Keep them away from humidity, rubber, chlorine, bleach and cosmetics, and if needed use a silver cleaner suitable for fine jewellery before rinsing and drying thoroughly.

Q: What condition are they in?
A: They are listed in Very Good Condition, with a shiny finish and light surface scratches consistent with careful vintage wear.

Q: Does this pair come with the original box, pouch or papers?
A: This listing shows no additional product information included. If original packaging or documents are important to you, please rely on the product information shown on this page for what is included with the item.

Q: Can replacement earring backs be obtained if needed?
A: Tiffany indicates that replacement earring backs may be available through its care or client service channels. For a vintage pre-owned pair, availability and fit can vary, so it is worth checking replacement options if this is important to you.
