We are often asked
Our men's earrings are hand-shaped in sterling silver, 14k gold-filled, or 18k gold. Sterling silver offers a crisp, understated shine suited to everyday wear. 14k gold-filled, available in yellow or rose, brings a warm tone at an accessible price point. 18k gold, offered in yellow, rose, or white, is the most refined material in our workshop, with a higher gold content. Every material is hand-shaped in our Paris workshop with the same artisan care, regardless of the range chosen. The choice mainly comes down to your budget and the tone you're looking for to complete your everyday style.
14k gold-filled (sometimes simply called 'gold-filled') consists of a base metal bonded with a layer of 14k gold, available only in yellow or rose. 18k gold contains a higher proportion of gold and comes in yellow, rose, and white. So this is a difference in composition and gold content, not two separate shaping techniques — both are hand-shaped in our Paris workshop. 18k gold offers superior long-term color durability, while gold-filled remains an excellent balance between golden shine and affordability.
No. 14k gold-filled only comes in two tones: yellow and rose. There is no white gold-filled option at Atelier Paulin. If you're looking for white gold men's earrings, you'll want our 18k gold range, which is available in yellow, rose, and white. This distinction matters when choosing: white tone is only available on the most refined material in our workshop. Feel free to check each earring's product page to confirm the material options offered before finalizing your choice.
All our jewelry, including men's earrings, comes with a one-year warranty from the date of purchase. This warranty covers manufacturing defects found under normal use. One exception: the shine of gold-filled pieces is guaranteed for life, meaning its golden or rose tone stays protected long-term, beyond the standard one-year warranty on the piece itself. For any question about a specific piece or to make a warranty claim, our customer service team is available to review your situation in detail.
Some pieces in our men's collection are personalized, others are not — it depends on the model. We recommend checking the product page directly to confirm whether the personalization option is offered. When available, you can have a word or initial hand-shaped in precious wire, following the workshop's lettering rules (cursive only, lowercase, no accents or apostrophes). Never assume a piece is personalized without checking its product page: the men's collection intentionally blends custom pieces with ready-to-wear ones, all hand-shaped with the same artisan care.
Lettering is entirely lowercase, except for the letter 'J,' which is shaped as a capital when it starts a word. We don't shape accents (é, è, à, ü…) or apostrophes, so your word or name needs to be composed without them. Spaces, however, can be added on request. The lettering style offered is unique: a fluid cursive, hand-shaped in precious wire. Symbols remain possible on request through our customer service team. These rules ensure consistency and precision in the hand-shaping of every Atelier Paulin piece.
Manufacturing time depends on the material chosen. For sterling silver and 14k gold-filled, allow 1 to 3 business days. For 18k gold, the timeline is 2 to 5 business days. These timelines reflect the time our Paris workshop needs to hand-shape your piece, including the work-hardening step applied to the whole jewelry piece once shaping is complete. They don't include shipping time to your home, which is added afterward. This care at every step ensures the piece's strength and shape memory over time.
Work-hardening is a cold metal-working step applied to the entire piece once shaping is complete, not letter by letter. This technique strengthens the structure of the precious wire, giving it better shape memory and increased resilience against everyday wear. It's a key skill of our Paris workshop, setting hand-shaping apart from simple forming: the jewelry piece holds its silhouette better over time, whether in sterling silver, gold-filled, or 18k gold. This technical step is an integral part of the artisan process behind every Atelier Paulin piece since 2014.
Our earrings are designed for everyday wear, hand-shaped in durable materials like sterling silver, gold-filled, or 18k gold. The work-hardening step, applied to each piece after shaping, strengthens the jewelry's resistance to daily wear and tear. That said, like any fine jewelry, it's best to avoid prolonged contact with chlorinated water, chemicals, or repeated impacts to preserve its shine for as long as possible. For questions about the right care for your specific material, our customer service team can guide you toward the best everyday habits.
Sterling silver, gold-filled, and 18k gold are materials generally well tolerated by sensitive skin compared to cheap alloys. That said, every skin type reacts differently, and we can't guarantee zero reaction for everyone. If you have a history of metal allergies, we recommend choosing 18k gold, known for its good skin tolerance thanks to its higher gold content. For any specific question related to your skin sensitivity, feel free to contact our customer service team before purchasing to discuss the best material for your situation.
Every Atelier Paulin earring is presented in a jewelry box, designed to protect your piece and elevate the moment of discovery, whether it's for yourself or as a gift. This box is part of the Atelier Paulin experience, reflecting the same care put into hand-shaping each piece. It also serves as a practical case to store your jewelry between wears, protected from dust and scratches. Every order, whether it includes one piece or several, is presented with the same attention, in keeping with the artisan work carried out in our Paris workshop.
No. A piece hand-shaped to order with the word or initial chosen by the customer cannot be exchanged or refunded, as it's a unique piece made specifically for you. A non-personalized piece, on the other hand, can be refunded or exchanged. We recommend double-checking your lettering and material choice before confirming your personalized order. For any questions about your specific situation, our customer service team remains available to assist you, though we're unable to offer a different policy for personalized pieces.
Yes, a non-personalized piece from our men's collection can be exchanged or refunded. This applies to ready-to-wear pieces, hand-shaped without a custom word or initial. We recommend checking the exact conditions (timeframes, required jewelry condition) directly with our customer service team when making your request, to get an answer tailored to your order. This distinction between personalized and non-personalized pieces is essential: it simply comes from the unique nature of custom hand-shaping, which doesn't allow the same flexibility as a standard piece from the collection.
Since 2014, Atelier Paulin has hand-shaped its jewelry in its Paris workshop. Every men's earring, whether in sterling silver, gold-filled, or 18k gold, passes through the hands of our artisans, who work the precious wire piece by piece. This craft, rooted in the art of precious wire, stands apart through hand-shaping rather than industrial processes. This French-made craftsmanship, at the heart of Paris, ensures quality control at every step, from shaping to final work-hardening, for jewelry made to last and be passed down.
The choice mainly comes down to your tone preference and budget. Sterling silver offers a clear, crisp shine, ideal for a timeless, understated style, at a more accessible price. 14k gold-filled, in yellow or rose, brings a warm golden touch without the cost of solid gold. 18k gold, available in yellow, rose, or white, remains the most refined material in our workshop, with a higher gold content and greater color durability. All these materials are hand-shaped with the same artisan care, so the difference really comes down to the tone you want and the investment you're considering.
Men's earrings make a well-loved gift idea, presented in a jewelry box that elevates the moment of giving. Some personalizable pieces let you have an initial or chosen word hand-shaped, for a gift with real meaning; others, non-personalized, offer a ready-to-wear option upon arrival. Before choosing a personalized piece as a gift, be sure to confirm size and preferences with the recipient, since this type of jewelry can't be exchanged once shaped. Our customer service team can help guide your choice based on the occasion and the recipient.
We recommend removing your earrings before sleeping or engaging in intense physical activity, to avoid impacts, friction, or snags that could damage the jewelry or clasp. While our pieces are hand-shaped and then work-hardened to boost their resilience, these simple precautions help preserve their shine and shape over time. For worry-free everyday wear, also remove your earrings before an extended shower, swimming, or applying cosmetic products, to limit contact with water and chemicals that could affect the material.
To preserve the shine of your earrings, store them in their box when not worn, away from direct light and humidity. Avoid contact with perfume, creams, and household products, which can dull the metal's surface. A simple soft, dry cloth is usually enough to bring back the shine between wears. Sterling silver may slightly oxidize over time, a natural phenomenon that fades with gentle cleaning. Gold-filled and 18k gold require less upkeep, but also benefit from careful storage to keep their brilliance over time.
We recommend checking this detail directly on each product page in the collection, as it can vary by model. Some earrings are designed to be worn as a single piece, others as a pair, depending on the style. This detail is always included in each piece's description to avoid any confusion when ordering. If you're still unsure after checking the product page, our customer service team is available to confirm the exact composition of your order before checkout, especially if you're purchasing as a gift.
The art of precious wire is our signature craft: hand-shaping silver or gold wire to give it form, without engraving or industrial processes. Since 2014, in our Paris workshop, our artisans have worked this precious wire piece by piece, through to the final work-hardening step that reinforces the jewelry's structure. This hand-shaped approach gives every earring a fluid look and a resilience built to last. It's this artisan gesture, rather than a mechanized technique, that fundamentally sets Atelier Paulin apart in the world of personalized jewelry.
