As you can see, this title clearly sets out the boundaries of our discussion, but it's worth knowing that it isn't only parents who buy a pair of earrings with precious stones for their newborn. The baby may receive them as a gift from the godparents, from grandparents and others besides. We're talking about a unique event, a celebration in the life of a family just setting out on its journey.
Because they are the first pieces of jewellery for such a tender little being, we must take a few aspects into account, from the budget and the material they're made of to their size, the fastening system and the presence of precious stones.
Which material do we choose?
Well, we have a single solution that ticks all the important factors in choosing a pair of earrings for babies, namely pure 18kt gold (gold at its first alloying from a 24kt ingot). It doesn't cause allergies or irritation, and it's affordable given its quality and its durability over time. We encourage you to send us an email, to call us or even to come to one of our physical shops in Bucharest, Constanța or Cluj-Napoca to obtain all the necessary information on this complex, yet beautiful and unique subject in the life of a set of parents. Not only will you find the answers straight from the source, but the decision you make afterwards will be a well-informed one. Let's not forget the opportunity to admire the jewellery and the way it's made either. You may already be familiar with these aspects, especially if you're a loyal customer and have purchased an engagement ring with a diamond certified internationally by a gemmological laboratory, or even a pair of personalised wedding rings.
Diamonds, sapphires, rubies or emeralds?
These are just a few examples of precious stones that can grace these pieces. The choice is yours, so whatever you decide, they will certainly be appreciated years from now, even by the very girl who will wear them. Yes, you read that correctly. The advantage is that years later, these earrings can be remade in the desired size with the same precious stones. Of course, that's unless you'd rather keep them as a keepsake in the very gift box they're delivered in. Just think how many of the purchases you make today manage to cross the barrier of time?
Fastening systems
There are two fastening systems available: the one with little hooks and the one with a safety stopper (where the back can differ). Both systems are suitable for a baby's small, delicate ears. This way, the movements the baby makes are also taken into account, so that wearing the earrings is comfortable, safe and pleasant. There are many details to bear in mind, but it isn't really all that complicated, perhaps just complex.
What is the budget?
Taking into account all the features we discussed earlier, you can surely tell, without dwelling on it too long, that the budget needs to be a realistic one. A pair of 18kt gold earrings with natural diamonds is worth, not merely costs, x lei. Such as the BB01 earrings pair. The jewellery is made of pure 18kt white gold with two brilliant-cut diamonds (each 1.25mm) set in a little bow apiece. The design is a playful one and brings to mind the cartoon character Minnie Mouse. The fastening is done with classic little hooks so that they don't snag, don't scratch and, most importantly, can't be undone by the baby. Of course, on request the precious stones can be rubies or even sapphires, and the colour of the gold can be changed. Choosing, or receiving as a gift, baby jewellery is certainly one of the most beautiful and moving moments that not only the parents can experience, but the child too, of course years later when she has grown a little and hears the story of her first diamond earrings.
