This isn't a mismatched pair by accident. The set gives you two different silhouettes to wear at once — a tight, sparkling stud for one ear, and a long, delicate chain that drops from the other.
You get two distinct earrings. The first is a stud shaped like a six-pointed snowflake, with a tiny zircon at its centre and a larger, round-cut zircon dangling just below. The second earring starts with a simple five-petal flower stud, from which a thin gold chain falls, anchored by two bezel-set zircons.
These are made from 14-karat solid gold, which is 58.3% pure gold mixed with alloys for strength. This means they won't tarnish or flake, and they're a good choice if you have sensitive skin. The zircons are held in place with bezel settings, a rim of gold that fully encases the side of the stone. It's one of the most secure ways to set a gem, which means you don't have to worry about losing a stone during daily wear.
- Material: 14K Solid Gold, Zircon

This set is for someone who likes the curated, asymmetrical ear look but wants it figured out for them. It gives you the effect of a stud and a drop earring in one coordinated pair, so you don't have to think about which pieces go together.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the chain on the long Snow Sun Earring get tangled in my hair?
It’s less likely to tangle than thicker or heavier chains. The chain is very fine and lightweight, so it tends to fall straight down and move with you rather than catching. If you have very long or curly hair, you might still want to be mindful when putting on or taking off sweaters.
Can I wear my 14k gold zircon earrings in the shower?
Yes, you can wear solid 14k gold in the shower. Water won't harm the gold, and it's generally safe for the bezel-set zircons. However, soaps and shampoos can build up over time, creating a film that dulls the stones' sparkle. We recommend cleaning them occasionally to keep them bright.
How far down does the long earring in the Snow Sun set hang?
The long chain earring is designed to hang just below the jawline on most people, though the exact placement will depend on where your piercing is located. It creates a noticeable drop that moves when you turn your head, drawing light down the side of the neck.
