Beaded Border Dangle Earrings - Sterling Silver
Statement dangle earrings in 925 sterling silver with artisan beaded border. USA-made luxury equestrian jewelry, 19mm. French wire or lever back. For riders with discerning taste. The Circle Medallion Dangle Earrings with Beaded Border—where fine jewelry tradition meets equestrian elegance. These aren't basic dangle earrings. The beaded border is a technique borrowed from centuries of luxury jewelry design—each bead individually formed and hand-finished to create a dimensional frame that catches and reflects light. The result is a pair of earrings with presence, movement, and the kind of depth you only get from real craftsmanship. THE PREMIUM DETAIL Beaded borders aren't common in equestrian jewelry because they're labor-intensive. Each bead has to be formed, aligned, and finished by hand. Mass production can't replicate this. When you see this technique in high-end jewelry—David Yurman, estate pieces, luxury brands—you're looking at work that takes time and skill. We use the same approach here. The beaded frame surrounds the TGH horse head logo, creating contrast and dimension. Light hits each polished bead individually, so these earrings shimmer and shift as you move. They have visual interest from every angle—front, side, even the subtle shadow the beaded edge casts. This is the kind of detail you appreciate more the longer you own them. The first week you notice they're pretty. Six months in, you realize they're well-made. A year later, you understand why they cost what they cost. WHY STERLING SILVER WORKS FOR THIS DESIGN The beaded border technique requires a metal with enough substance to hold crisp detail—sterling silver delivers. The contrast between polished beads and the recessed logo background creates depth that plated or base metals can't match. Plus, .925 sterling has the weight that makes jewelry feel like jewelry, not costume accessories. At 19mm (XL), these earrings are statement-sized but not costume-sized. They're substantial enough to be noticed, refined enough to work in any setting. Think elegant presence, not loud. THE SPECIFICATIONS: Size: XL (19mm) - large enough to showcase the beaded detail, refined enough for daily wear Material: .925 Sterling Silver - properly hallmarked, USA-made Hardware: Choose French wire or secure lever back (both high-quality, nickel-free) Design: Hand-finished beaded border surrounding TGH horse head silhouette Weight: Noticeable quality without pulling on your ears Finish: High-polish beads with dimensional logo for maximum light play Movement: Dangles catch light beautifully as you move WHO THESE ARE FOR Horse lovers who want equestrian jewelry that holds its own in any room. Riders who appreciate craftsmanship. People who notice when jewelry is made well and are willing to invest in pieces that last. These work for horse shows, dinners, client meetings, barn events—anywhere you want sophisticated presence with equestrian meaning. The beaded border detail is recognizable to people who know jewelry, while the TGH logo connects you with the equestrian community. Not for minimalists. These are statement earrings with presence. If you prefer subtle, go with the smooth Circle Medallion studs. If you want texture, dimension, and visual interest—something people notice and compliment—these are it. VERSATILE LUXURY Pair with the beaded border pendant for a cohesive luxury look, or wear alone as your statement earrings. The 19mm size makes them substantial enough to be your only jewelry, or layer them with delicate necklaces for an intentional high-low mix. Many customers wear these daily—they're durable enough for real life, refined enough for special occasions. Others save them for horse shows and dinners. Both approaches work. The quality supports whatever frequency you choose. CRAFTSMANSHIP BUILT TO LAST Real .925 sterling silver, made in the USA, properly stamped and finished. Not plated. Not hollow. Not mass-produced and drop-shipped. This is jewelry you can wear for years—through barn time, horse shows, celebrations—and it develops character with wear. The beaded border is formed as part of the piece, not glued or surface-applied, so there's nothing to fall off. Sterling silver's natural patina adds warmth over time (easily polished back to bright if you prefer). The hardware—French wires or lever backs—is chosen for security and comfort, not cost savings. This is the kind of jewelry you keep. The kind that becomes your signature. The kind you wear so often people associate it with you.
