Description

A pair of antique gold moonstone huggie earrings set in 20k solid gold.

The prong held moonstones are set high to push outwards and they resemble crystal “pools of light”.

These old earrings are traditional Chinese hoops found in this region, the ‘huggie’ designed to wear as a hoop that will not swing.

From the front they look like studs but a turn of the head and you see part of the hoop snug aside the earlobes. The coquettish charm in such earrings is obvious, because while they are small they are also extremely visible.

The lever back is (almost) impossible to replicate today, because the spring inside was made entirely by hand.

These style of earrings were casually worn from as early as the 19th century and handcrafted right up to the middle of the 20th century and no more today.

The huggie hoops come to 1cm with the moonstones pushing outwards just a teensy more.
