Amber earrings come in many expressions — and the right pair depends on the stone, the setting, and the occasion.

Studs offer a quiet, everyday elegance. A single amber stone in silver or gold sits close to the ear, letting the natural color and texture of the amber speak for itself.

Drop earrings move with you. The amber catches light differently throughout the day, and the gentle weight gives a sense of presence without being heavy.

Pull-through earrings are a more contemporary style — a continuous curve of metal or amber that threads through the ear for a fluid, modern look.

At Ravgaard, our earrings range from our No. 1 Signature series — handcrafted in Denmark in sterling silver, 14k and 18k gold — to more sculptural one-of-a-kind pieces where the amber itself dictates the form. No two stones are ever alike, which means no two pairs are ever truly identical.

Our family has worked with amber for 4 generations, over the past 100 years.

The story began on the island of Læsø, where the North Sea and the Kattegat meet — one of Denmark's richest shores for finding amber. But as my father Erik moved to Jutland, my parents Margit and Erik Ravgård have spent the past 45 years running their open workshop and store in Sønderlev, between Hjørring and Lønstrup in northern Denmark.

In the workshop, Erik transforms raw amber into unique jewelry of his own design — polishing, shaping, and setting each stone by hand. The workshop is also equipped with wood lathes, where Erik turns wood of all kinds into beautiful bowls and Christmas trees with amber details. Margit brings her own eye for design and detail to every piece.

We work exclusively with genuine Nordic amber, also known as Baltic amber, formed by ancient trees and shaped over millions of years in earth and sea. No two pieces are ever the same — their colors, inclusions, surface textures, and inner glow vary naturally from piece to piece. Our role is not to control the material, but to work with it slowly, intentionally, and with care for its natural expression.

We believe in slow craftsmanship and jewelry made to last.

We are a small family run business, and we are proud to be.

Thank you for supporting Danish craftsmanship.

Amber has been used for personal adornment since the Stone Age — worn as amulets, beads, and pendants long before the concept of jewelry as we know it today. As craftsmanship evolved, so did the forms amber took.

In the Viking Age, amber beads and pendants were among the most prized possessions, harvested from the shores of the Baltic Sea and traded across Europe. Earrings as a form emerged and spread through trade routes — the same Amber Roads that connected Scandinavia with the Mediterranean, Egypt, and the Middle East.

Through the Bronze Age, the Middle Ages, and into modern times, amber has never gone out of fashion. Its warmth, lightness, and natural glow make it uniquely suited to frame the face — which is perhaps why amber earrings have endured across cultures and centuries.

At Ravgaard, we carry that history forward. Each pair of earrings is handcrafted in our workshop in Sønderlev, shaped by the same material that has fascinated people for thousands of years.

Amber is a natural resin — warm, light, and sensitive to chemicals and heat. To keep your piece looking its best:

• Avoid contact with perfume, hairspray, and cleaning products
• Remove jewelry before swimming or bathing
• Store in a soft pouch or box, away from direct sunlight
• Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth
• If the surface becomes dull, a drop of olive oil on a cloth can restore its natural warmth.

With the right care, amber jewelry lasts a lifetime — and often improves with age. For a deeper guide, visit our [Care Guide] page.
