About this item

The huggie you can shower in without waking up to a green earlobe.

14K gold-filled metal — not plated, not coated. The gold layer is roughly 100× thicker than standard plating, pressure-bonded to the base so it won't flake.

14K gold-filled metal (≈100× thicker than plating, won't peel)
925 sterling silver post — hypoallergenic for most wearers
Freshwater pearl, 6–8mm, hand-selected
Hinged huggie closure — snaps shut, stays shut

The pair you put on without looking, and never think about again.

What gold-filled means — and why plating fails ↓

Metal: 14K gold-filled (pressure-bonded, not plated)
Post: 925 sterling silver
Pearl: Freshwater, 6–8mm, hand-selected
Closure: Hinged huggie
Pair weight: ~3g
Origin: Metal and pearls sourced in China

Wipe with a dry cotton cloth after wear to remove skin oil. Avoid perfume and hairspray on the pearl — they dull the nacre over time. Gold-filled tolerates occasional water (shower, rain) better than plated, but store dry. Keep in a soft pouch away from harder metals.

You reach for them without looking. They click on. You grab your keys. A month later they still look the same — no dull spots, no flaking edges, no irritation where the post sits. The pearl catches light the way only a real pearl does: softer at the bottom, brighter at the top, slightly different on each ear because no two freshwater pearls grow the same.

Gold-filled is a regulated US standard: a minimum 5% gold by weight, pressure-bonded to a brass core. Plated jewelry uses a microns-thin gold film that wears through in months. Gold-filled wears like solid gold for years — at a fraction of the price.
