History of the earring
Early earrings were generally made from a variety of natural materials. They were made from shells, bone, feathers or precious stones. This ceremonial accessory appealed to men and women alike, as the earring was not exclusively ornamental. It was also considered a symbol of social or religious status. Styles then evolved over time to suit different eras and cultures. In the Renaissance, earrings were often adorned with pearls and gems, while in the 20th century, new materials were used in their manufacture: notably gold, silver or platinum.
Symbolic loops
They have represented various aspects of people's social, cultural and spiritual lives throughout history. Historically, earrings were associated with social status and wealth, reserved for the elite and made from precious materials. In various civilizations, earrings were used to express cultural and ethnic identity, with specific designs associated with particular groups. They were sometimes considered protective against evil spirits or disease, adorned with symbols or talismans with supposed powers. Earrings were closely linked to the expression of femininity and beauty. They were given as gifts at weddings and other special occasions to emphasize a woman's grace and charm. In certain religious or spiritual contexts, they were worn during rituals or ceremonies to symbolize a connection with divine and spiritual forces.
Cultured pearls from China and Japan
Cultured pearls from China and Japan are among the world's most renowned for their beauty and quality. Their history dates back over 2,000 years, when fishermen began to cultivate them by inserting cores into freshwater oysters. This triggered the natural pearl-forming process. These pearls are distinguished by their soft luster and variety of colors, from white to pink, purple and even black. Their quality is usually judged by size, shape, color, brilliance and surface. Maty honors their delicacy in modern creations.
Tahiti's cultural pearl
Tahitian cultured pearls, also known as "black pearls", are highly prized for their exotic beauty and mystery. They are cultivated in the warm, crystal-clear waters of French Polynesia, particularly around the island of Tahiti and the surrounding archipelagos. They are distinguished by their wide range of colors, from deep black to gray, through shades of green, blue, violet and bronze. Each pearl is unique, with its own nuances, reflections and luster. These Tahitian gems are highly prized for their generous size, their round or baroque shape and their surface adorned with natural patterns and iridescence. They are used in the creation of a wide range of jewelry.

They're a symbol of love, romance and affection. They're the ideal accessory for telling the woman you love how much you love her. MATY encases the delicacy of pearls in gold or silver hearts.

At MATY, we offer a wide range of earrings to suit every style and desire. But how do you choose among all these models? The choice between white gold and yellow gold for pearl earrings depends on your personal preferences, the style you're looking for and your skin tone. Yellow gold is a classic, timeless choice. Its warm, rich hue perfectly complements the natural color of pearls, whether white, pink or colored. Earrings add a touch of warmth and luminosity to the face. White gold offers a more modern, contemporary aesthetic. Its neutral, silvery appearance creates a subtle yet elegant contrast with the pearl, highlighting its natural beauty. Gold earrings are generally appreciated for their sophisticated look and their ability to harmonize with a variety of outfits and styles.
Earrings for every body type
Certain earring shapes can better enhance a particular face shape. For example, dangling or cascading earrings can elongate a round face, while wider, rounded earrings can soften the features of an angular face. Choose jewelry that reflects your personal style and taste. If you prefer a classic, understated look, opt for stud earrings or small hoop earrings. If you like to make a statement, choose dangling earrings or larger hoop earrings. Certain occasions may call for more formal or more casual styles. For example, classic pearls are best suited to a professional event, while a casual silver model may be ideal for a quiet day.
