A long, fine curb chain drops straight from a flat gold hoop. The chain is so long it will brush your collarbone when you turn your head, creating a constant sense of movement.
You're looking at a pair of huggie hoop earrings. The hoops have a flat, polished surface that catches the light as a solid bar. Hanging from each is a long, fine curb chain. Right where the chain begins, there’s a single, vertically set baguette-cut stone. The stone's setting is rhodium-plated, which makes the stone itself look brighter against the yellow gold of the chain and hoop. The whole thing is very linear.
We make these from 14 Karat solid gold, not plated or filled. That's 58.3% pure gold, alloyed for strength, which means the earrings are durable enough to handle the long chain without deforming. The warm gold colour is permanent — it won't rub off or change. Because there’s no nickel in our gold alloy, they're a safe bet for sensitive ears. The stone is a baguette-cut Cubic Zirconia, chosen for its clarity and precise, geometric flash that complements the design's straight lines.
- Material: 14 Karat solid yellow gold, white rhodium, Cubic Zirconia

You'd pick this earring for the length. It gives you the security of a huggie hoop at the earlobe, but the visual impact of a long chain threader. It’s a way to wear a very long earring that feels completely secure and anchored. It's for someone who likes minimalist shapes but wants maximum length.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the long chain on the Lantern Rope Earring get caught in my hair or clothes?
The chain is designed to be smooth and is weighted by the gold, which helps it hang straight and minimizes snagging. However, with any long earring, it's a good idea to be mindful when putting on or taking off sweaters or scarves to avoid catching the chain.
Can I wear my 14k gold Lantern Rope Earrings in the shower?
Yes, you can wear your solid 14k gold earrings in the shower. Water won't harm the gold or the Cubic Zirconia. We just recommend rinsing them with fresh water and patting them dry afterward to prevent soap scum or hard water buildup from dulling their shine over time.
How will the Lantern Rope Earring fit if I have a second or third piercing in my lobe?
These earrings work very well with multiple piercings. The huggie itself is small and sits close to the lobe, so it won't interfere with studs or smaller hoops in adjacent holes. The long chain will hang down cleanly behind or in front of your other jewellery.
