Two hearts, smooth and softly rounded rather than sharply pointed, sit one above the other on a fine climbing pin. No stones, no enamel, no engraving.
Hearts in jewellery usually arrive covered in stones or filled with pink enamel, which pushes them firmly towards gift-shop territory. Leaving them plain and giving them a slightly flattened, softened outline changes the register entirely — the shape becomes a form rather than a symbol, and the earring reads as modern rather than cute. It is the difference between a heart you would wear to work and one you would not.
Each heart is cut with a wide, shallow profile and a blunt point rather than the narrow pointed outline usually used, which is what keeps it from looking like a sticker. The surfaces are gently domed and polished, so each catches a single broad highlight. The lower heart sits slightly larger than the upper, giving the climb a taper. The pin is fine, straight and rounded at the tip.
The pin passes through your existing lobe piercing and then rises at an angle along the ear, so a single piercing produces the look of a climber. There is no cuff, no clip and no second fitting. Slide it through gently and let the upper end rest against the ear — the angle it settles at is what holds it. Nothing hangs below the lobe, so it cannot swing, tangle in hair or catch on a collar.
Hair up or tucked back. These suit everyday clothing of any kind and read as quietly affectionate rather than overtly romantic, which makes them a good small gift — for a friend, a sister or a daughter — without carrying too much meaning. Wear as a pair.
Daily wear, office, college and casual outings.
Very light, with nothing hanging and no sharp points. The blunt heart tips mean nothing scratches or catches in hair.
This piece is brass finished with a gold-tone plating rather than solid gold, which is what keeps the price where it is and the weight low enough for comfortable wear. Plating is a surface rather than a bulk property, so how long it lasts depends almost entirely on what it is exposed to. Perfume, hairspray, sweat, soap and chlorinated water all shorten its life; a dry cloth after wearing and a closed pouch between wearings extend it considerably.
Put these on after perfume, hairspray and foundation. Wipe with a dry soft cloth after wearing and use a dry soft brush over any textured surfaces. Store them flat in a pouch so the pins stay straight, and never use toothpaste, bleach or an ultrasonic cleaner.
