The History of Chandelier Earrings
During the 1920’s chandelier earrings were extremely popular, however many designs were created with a clip-on backing. In the late 1940’s King George gifted a beautiful pair of 3 tier chandelier earrings to Queen Elizabeth, however pierced ears were not the norm during this time.

Once Queen Elizabeth set the trend of pierced ears and wore her beautiful new drop earrings, women from around the globe followed. Alongside the Royals, classic movie stars such as Grace Kelly and Marilyn Monroe set the modern glamour trend with chandelier earrings. The classic chandelier earring is a favourite for celebrities on the red carpet at the Golden Globes, Met Gala, Cannes Film Festival and Oscars. Today women also wear chandelier earrings on their wedding day or have their bridesmaids wear them.
